Wine List
Welcome to the Pandora Inn wine list which we hope reflects our
passion for serving great wine within our pub environment.
As part of our ‘access for all’ policies, this wine list is available
in a large print format, in Braille and on our website
www.pandorainn.com
This list continues our aim to bring you a choice of grapes, vintages
and prices while taking you on a tour of the major wine
producing countries across the globe. Our wine by the glass offer
remains central to everything we do and we are pleased
to be able to offer a choice of 17 wines in a range of glass sizes.
Hopefully, there’s something for everyone!
We are particularly proud to support three local wineries, two in
Cornwall – Camel Valley near Bodmin and Knightor near St.
Austell, and Sharpham Winery near Totnes in Devon. Due to our
often challenging climate, English wines are mostly
white or sparkling.
The grape varieties used tend to be the ones suited to our climate
such as Bacchus and Madeleine Angevine. The styles are light
and fruity and the wines are well suited to the wonderful fresh
shellfish and seafood that feature so strongly on our menu.
We also offer wines that have full organic certification, wines
that come from vineyards that have accreditation for their
sustainable practices and wines that are suitable for vegetarians.

Responsible drinking
Understanding Alcohol Percentages
In this period of Government-led responsible drinking and increased awareness of health issues and alcohol
consumption, it is important to know how many units of alcohol are in a glass of wine.
It is a simple calculation of the percentage volume alcohol multiplied by the amount of wine in litres.
The UK Chief Medical Officers recommend:
• Women should not regularly drink more than 2-3 units per day.
• Men should not regularly drink more than 3-4 units per day.
Find out the exact units in your wine and for more information refer to the website
www.drinkaware.co.uk
As an example, the amount of units contained in a 11.5% wine is as follows:
0.125L X 11.5% = 1.44 UNITS 0.175L X 11.5% = 2 UNITS 0.250L X 11.5% = 2.88 UNITS
Alternatively, the amount of units contained in a 14% wine is as follows:
0.125L X 14% = 1.75 UNITS 0.175L X 14% = 2.45 UNITS Wine Guide
0.250L X 14% = 3.5 UNITS
