The Best Wine Bars in Portland, Oregon - Eater Portland
"Feeling like a romantic, earthy wine cave with its black walls, low lighting, and hanging plants, this friendly, welcoming wine bar on Montavilla’s main drag boasts an impressive 400+ bottle collection from producers as close to home as the Pacific Northwest and as far afield as Lebanon. Aimed at creating a comfortable environment where diners can relish and expand their wine knowledge sans judgment, the offerings mainly focus on European wine regions from Burgundy to Rioja. Patrons can grab a glass, split a bottle, or do a choose-your-own flight before catching a movie across the street at the Academy. Frequently hosting live music nights, visitors can also sign up for regular wine classes and tastings to learn more about unfamiliar varietals or regions. Outdoor dining is available as well." - Alex Frane, Zoe Baillargeon
