WINE CONCEPT

Wine Concept

"As a general belief when it comes to Indian cuisine and wine, people don't tend to associate the combination of the two with each other, but at Benares we think that the marriage of the two are challenging and exciting.

We aspire to introduce you to a completely new gastronomic dimension, wine pairing with Benares dishes is so different and so special, merging subtle spices and carefully selected wines, introducing so many layers of complexity to enjoy.

We believe it makes one of the most satisfying experiences in food and wine, if not the most!

We feel that the guidance of the Sommelier is far more important than in any other restaurant, as Indian food presents far more hidden pitfalls than all other cuisines and pairing rules here cease to exist.

Our Sommelier team's main aim is to aid you in your wine choice and are delighted to guide you in  your likes, dislikes and budget, unveiling to  you the best kept secret for food and wine lovers."
