A SOCIAL PROPOSITION

When 67 Pall Mall Singapore opens in the third quarter of 2020, it will be sitting pretty at the historic double-storey penthouse of Shaw Centre. Grant Ashton, the club’s founder and CEO, tells us that the centrepiece will be a flowing, curvilinear column that will serve as a 6,000-bottle wine tower. “In the fine wine space, you know how much wine costs,” he explains of his original idea for 67 Pall Mall. Weary of high mark-ups on wines at fine restaurants, he’s created a club model that appeals to wine drinkers like himself—one that amalgamates a massive wine list, reasonable mark-ups, good food and like-minded company. Social clubs are back in fashion and Ashton is expecting to welcome 2,000 members, who can expect not just one of Asia’s largest wine lists

(with 1,000 by the glass), but also to bump into Singapore’s three resident Masters of Wine, who will curate and present wine-related activities. 67pallmall.sg
