Northcote
This is a big, sparkling led list, 655 wines deep, built around Champagne and English fizz, with Louis Roederer the most listed house at twelve wines alongside strong showings from Taittinger and Nyetimber. France carries the still wines, with real depth in the Loire whites, Burgundy from the Cote de Nuits, and Southern Rhone reds, and there is a serious dessert and fortified section running to 133 bottles, including a deep Port bench from Ramos Pinto and Barbeito. It is not a cheap list, with bottles climbing past 200 GBP, though there are entry points nearer 75 GBP for guests who want to keep it sensible. The by the glass program is genuinely generous at 59 pours, so you can take most tables through several courses without opening full bottles. It rewards the Champagne drinker and anyone who wants to finish with something sweet, and the classic French regions are where you steer guests who want quality with a name they trust.
