One of the idiosyncracies of St. John is the all French wine-list. Is there a reason for this?

Our wine list...there's many reasons why we went with an all french list, one is the old bond - the Aquataine.

The simple matter of geography and appropriateness. But it also brings us back to the joy of working within the limitations of the list.

Achieving a comprehensive and delicious wine list without it being an eclectic international experience...

And I love Burgundy!

Hope that answers your question.
