A sophisticated city escape for oenophiles. Housed in a cavernous warehouse near the middle of Rokeby Road, this bar-cum-wine store greets guests with a soaring wall of bottles, all detailed in their encyclopaedic list. Elegant waitstaff glide confidently around bistro tables, plush velvet lounges, and intimate nooks perfect for a quiet tête-à-tête. The urban outpost of winemaker Larry Cherubino’s various labels (he produces over 70 wines), there’s also a hefty number of Italian imports. Particularly special is their limited ‘Coravin by the glass’ menu, allowing guests to savour premium wines without paying for the bottle. The food menu, while compact, impresses. Burrata, served on a bed of agrodolce sauce of tomatoes, capers and peppers, is made to be mopped up with locally sourced focaccia. A wine bar that lives up to its heavenly name.
