UNALOME by Graeme Cheevers, Glasgow

One of Glasgow’s most exciting new restaurant openings last year, offering accomplished cooking combining traditional French cooking techniques with strong Japanese influences. Its modern, compact wine list that feels very accessible, with quality selections throughout. 

Wine judging observations:

The judges loved the format of the list; divided by drinking style categories, with mature vintages, an interesting selection by the glass and a good selection of dessert wines.
