"Helmed by master sommelier Matt Stamp and former Charlie Trotter's wine director Ryan Stetins, this combined wine bar, restaurant, and retail shop emphasizes wine-first dining: an extensive list features unusual varieties from places like the Canary Islands and rare bottles such as a 2004 Rosso di Valtellina, while executive chef Jammir Gray crafts a menu specifically designed to pair with wine. Standout dishes—like a bavette steak that matches beautifully with reds and a gnocchi Parisienne that amplifies umami in the glass—make it an ideal spot for adventurous wine-and-food pairings." - Brian Freedman
