"This SoMa bottle shop, wine bar, and event space hybrid is perfect for unnatural wine amateurs—or if you just have a lot of questions. Everyone here is more than happy to answer any you have while you sip on a glass of albariño that they probably recommended. Beyond the mostly European wine list, beers and spirits are available, as well as enough tinned fishes and mollusks to ensure several (delicious) years of survival on a deserted island. Once you’ve had your fill of grape juice and brine, have a repeat at home, as everything from the by-the-glass wine menu and the selection of canned seafood can be picked up in the bottle shop." - julia chen 1, patrick wong, lani conway
