Best Wine Bars and Restaurants in Austin | Eater Austin

"Since Whole Foods’ master sommelier Devon Broglie is based in Austin, it should come as no surprise that the upscale grocer has a solid wine bar tucked into the flagship store. There’s a big open secret: any of the 1,500 on-site bottles are available to purchase to drink at the bar for retail price — there’s zero markup. (This is very wallet-friendly.) Feeling splashy, but can’t commit to a bottle? Check the latest glass pours for some rather surprising deals on grower champagne and classic producers — truly iconic wines can be purchased for under $15 per glass." - Tom Thornton
