The name ‘Hedonism’ originates from an early Greek
philosophy that believes pleasure is the only intrinsic
good.This way of thinking has led to the word being used
frequently in wine tasting notes and, as a stockist of the
finest and rarest wines and spirits, the name clearly serves
this business well. At HedonismWines, it is said that the
UK’s best buyers source around 5,500 wines and 2,000
spirits, taking the crème de la crème from each region
of the world whilst carefully checking the provenance of
every bottle. The boutique stocks classics including the
Macallan 50 year old 1928, Taylor’s 1945, a Courvoisier
1976 Baccarat Decanter, Domaine de la Romanee Conti
La Tache 1999,The Laird 2006 in a rather meagre 27 litre
bottle and a Chartreuse Tarragona. And if by chance they
do not have the bottle that you desire,HedonismWine will
go out of their way to try and source it for you. Also, what
makes the experience more personalised is that many of
their dedicated wine specialists are former sommeliers
for top Michelin-starred restaurants and therefore can
offer their most valued expert advice and expertise.
Hedonism Wines offers both their UK and overseas
clientele a delivery service of wine and spirits, so you
can have your favourite bottle sent straight to your door.
Deliveries are made within the hour in central London
and, if you wish, their wine specialists can be on hand
to offer any advice or expertise. Using electric vans as
transportation for deliveries, Hedonism Wines is also
keeping it green and the air clean.
If you would rather visit the shop to browse their entire collection and
have to take the children with you, HedonismWines provide a kid’s area to
keep the little ones occupied. The shop is fully temperature and humidity
controlled with heat free lights in order to keep the wines in pristine
condition. If the temperature is not to your liking, you could always keep
warm by wrapping up in a nice throw and taste their exquisite fine wine
from their Enomatic machines at cosy tasting tables.
HedonismWines is opened seven
days a week: Monday to Saturday
from 10am-9pm and Sunday
from 12pm-6pm.
