TGWG's Verdict

The Good Wine Guide

“The Shepherd & Dog wine list: One finds a wonderfully well rounded selection here, cleverly balanced between crisp whites, approachable reds, and easy drinking sparkling options. The undisputed star of the cellar is the Veuve Clicquot Brut Champagne, boasting a formidable 4.3 Vivino score... offering a decidedly premium sparkling experience. Reassuringly, standard market pricing is maintained across both glass and bottle offerings, making for a pleasantly straightforward dining experience.”
