London
London drips with rain and restraint, yet its natural wine scene burns in railway arches from Bermondsey to Bethnal Green. Skin-contact orange wines meet aged beef and burrata in candlelit rooms where reservations prove futile. From Soho basements to Peckham rooftops, sommeliers serve cloudy bottles with understated rigor. No fuss, just proper juice and seasonal British produce. Unfiltered, unheated, undeniable.
Key
40 Maltby Street
The ultimate natural wine destination and proper London dining institution. Set in a Victorian railway arch, this is the spiritual home of the city's natural wine scene—part of the Gergovie Wines family. By day, a bottle shop; by evening, a candlelit restaurant serving seasonal European plates that change daily based on what arrives from their network of British farms and suppliers. Expect dishes like grilled quail with sour cherries, aged beef with bone marrow, and buttered Wye Valley asparagus when in season. The wine list is entirely natural, organic, or biodynamic, with direct imports from small French, Italian, and English growers. Wed-Sat only—no reservations, so arrive early or queue with the locals.
