Banyan on the Thames WINE LIST
W elcome to the wine list at Banyan on the Thames. We have given careful consideration to the wine selection to ensure that we are offering our diners a great choice of delicious and interesting wines. Many of the wines come from smaller producers who are able to lavish their vines with great care and attention. The Hotel Rafayel has gone to great lengths to be as eco-friendly as possible, so we also wanted to feature wine producers who also care about the environment and who use minimal amounts of chemical treatments in the vineyards and winery. Furthermore our wine supplier has been awarded The Drinks Business UK Green Company of the Year for their environmental management policies. We hope you enjoy your meal with us, and please do not hesitate to speak to a member of staff for further help with your wine selection.
