How we read reviews →Albert Park's neighbourhood wine bar. exceptional glass list, expert sommelier and unbeatable happy hour.
Warm, intimate and inviting. recently renovated from a pub into a stylish wine bar that feels European in character without being pretentious. Comfortable lounge-style seating, good music, and Sunday live music sessions give it a genuine neighbourhood anchor feel. Staff remember regulars' names and favourite drinks.
Sommelier on-site (Erin) to guide wine selection. Large by-the-glass menu covering Australian and New Zealand wines with bottle retail available to take home (competitive corkage). Happy hour: $6 wines and $3 lager. Complimentary wine tastings offered. Sunday live music. Build-your-own charcuterie board from individual component selections. Bottles can be purchased retail and consumed on-premises with corkage.
Modern Australian wine bar sensibility with a European bistro influence. the emphasis on by-the-glass Australian and New Zealand wines is a genuine strength.
Excellent value at happy hour. By-the-glass selection is extensive and reasonably priced. Retail-with-corkage model gives excellent flexibility for wine lovers. Food is appropriately priced for its small-plates nature.
