Best Wine List for Originality – DUDDELL’S
This award celebrates a list that really stands out as being both brilliant and different. Such a list should champion lesser-known varieties or producers, and should be assembled in an innovative, brave or creative way. In short, it is a place that must challenge our idea of what a wine list should look like.
And our winner certainly does that. Head sommelier, Konrad Tadeusz Lassota interprets and codes wines according to ‘a fivefold conceptual scheme found in traditional Chinese thought’, and uses headings such as Metal, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth to segment the wines.
You have to go there and test it for yourself, but it’s certainly original, and wonderfully complements the exceptional Cantonese cuisine at this great new addition to the London on-trade.
