Compliment amethyst (23-01-2008) 4

This very attractive independent wine shop - with the punning name - is a recent addition to the area. Not the place to visit if you're after a bottle of cheap plonk for a budget night in, instead it beckons when you want a special occasion wine for yourself, to complement a special meal, or to offer as a gift.

The name theme continues with many of the wines; film aficionados are sure to be tempted by Francis Ford Coppola's 'Director's Cut' Chardonnay at £14.65 or his Pinot Noir at £17.75. If you're a fan of full bodied Aussie beauties opt for the intriguingly titled 'Cockfighter's Ghost' at £15.50, a Tasmanian Pinot Noir. A townie with countryside cravings might weaken at the sight of 'Ten Minutes by Tractor' (another Pinot Noir from Oz). When you are recovering from the night before, and still have a healthy wallet, your tipple of choice could be 'Dead Arm' Shiraz (Aussie again) at £27.25.

The owner has plans to hold frequent tutored tastings in the near future.
