A wine expert has shared his honest opinion of the wine list at Wetherspoons...

In a video shared on TikTok , wine connoisseur Tom Gilbey said he'd headed down to The Rocket, a Wetherspoons pub in Putney, London, to “check out the wine list”. While taking a look through the wines Wetherspoons had to offer, a rather shocked Tom said: “Oh my God! They’ve actually got half decent wine!” In terms of reds, he highlighted a “very, very good Shiraz made by Grant Burge”, which was selling at under £20 a bottle and £3.

81 a glass, as particularly promising. He also said he couldn’t pick out any “offenders” from the list in terms of price, noting how the Malbec was just £17. function loadOvpScript(){let el=document.
