"Nestled between storefronts on Charlotte’s walkable North Davidson strip, Bar à Vins’ hand-picked by-the-glass menu gifts visitors with some friendly, some experimental, yet all delightful natural wines, like a chilled red blend or stone-fruity skin-contact sauvignon blanc. The “fancy” caviar service — trout roe and creme fraiche dolloped on Lay’s chips — makes the casual sexy. Maybe it’s all of this, or maybe it’s the killer aux, but BAV serves up a modern drink and an unpretentious, yet impress-your-date vibe. Pro tip: BAV hosts some of the Charlotte region’s best sommelier and chef takeover pop-ups for a fun, dinner party vibe." - Kayleigh Ruller
