What is Vinoteca?

The Sommelier. The freshly pressed napkins, crisp uniforms and proud postures. Doesn’t exactly scream ‘relaxed’ atmosphere does it?

No wonder we wine-folk are labelled pretentious. Don’t get us wrong, Sommeliers have their place. Just not with us.

At Vinoteca we do things differently. We don’t do exclusivity. The Roman Empire was fuelled by wine, enjoyed by soldiers and Caesars alike. You don’t need a refined palette, fast cars and fat pay-checks to enjoy it.

Wine is for everyone.

That’s why Vinoteca’s Brett Woonton (Rodney) and Charlie Young (The Horse) are redefining the wine bar. Stopping at nothing to source exceptional wines from all over the world to bring home and pair with next-level, seasonal British dishes with a twist.From grape to glass, farm to plate; every bite and every sip has an epic origin story waiting to be told. Stories that take you places. Igniting people’s passion for wine in a crazy-classy way without the stuffiness. Without the wine-splaining and sniggering.

We’re redefining the wine bar. Creating a safe space. Where you don’t need to feel out of your depth. Whether you want to soak up a night of deep wine chat or eat it and beat it. The Vinoteca experience is whatever you want it to be. Quaff on!

Created by Elena Ares, Brett Woonton and Charlie Young, Vinoteca combines distinctive, high quality wines alongside well sourced, fresh, seasonal food.

Brett & Charlie source exciting wines & other drinks with interesting stories, from all over the world, with an ever-changing selection of 25 wines by the glass. Our award-winning list of 200+ wines changes twice a year to ensure we offer the very best in quality and variety.

Every Vinoteca has its own unique and daily changing menu created by a different head chef. All our kitchens bake their own bread daily and serve our outstanding signature bavette steak.

We first opened in 2005 in Farringdon, which has over the years been followed by new restaurants and wine bars in Chiswick, King’s Cross, the City, Borough Yards and Birmingham.

Each Vinoteca has its own wine shop where our wine can be found at competitive retail prices, and our entire wine list is available to order from our online shop with nationwide delivery.

BRETT WOONTON

Brett’s early experience includes stints in wine retail in his native New Zealand and fine dining service in Australia, The Cayman Islands and London. A total of over ten years with highly respected Enotria Wine Cellars and Liberty Wines has provided him with enviable experience of the British wine trade with particular emphasis on the wines of Italy.

Brett is very well known in the London wine & restaurant scene, and is both known as and fond of calling everyone Rodney.

CHARLIE YOUNG

A similar diploma in Hotel Management to Brett’s gave him the grounding to embark upon experience in the Channel Islands, West Indies, Germany and England, before moving to the drinks trade where his first position was selling Tetley’s Bitter to working men’s clubs in Yorkshire.
