The editorial take
A neighborhood wine bar with a serious drinks program: a deep wine list with flights, a creative cocktail menu, and a digestif-heavy spirits selection. The cocktail list leans on Japanese gin and bourbon, while the wine list spans Provence to Napa. Beer and non-alcoholic options round out the bar.
- What should I order?
- Start with a cocktail like the A & G (Komasa gin, Fever-Tree Mediterranean tonic) or the Smokey Old Fashioned with Minden Mill bourbon. For wine, try a flight—'Summertime Whites' or 'Greg's Picks'—or a glass of Mylonas Assyrtiko. Finish with a Marolo Chamomile Grappa.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Wine enthusiasts looking for flights and by-the-glass variety, cocktail drinkers who appreciate creative ingredients, and spirits lovers interested in after-dinner pours. The cozy atmosphere suits date nights and happy hours.
- When should I go?
- Anytime the mood for a relaxed drink strikes; the welcoming vibe works for early evening happy hours or late-night digestifs.
