These are the favorite wine bars of top sommeliers
In the past, ordering wine in a bar was more or less tantamount to the guillotine. It’s getting better, surely but slowly, but for truly delicious wines, you need to go to a wine bar. It’s also the ideal place if you want to eat out but don’t want to spend the entire evening in a restaurant. We asked top sommeliers about their favorite spots. Also for a killer cocktail.
Erica Verweijen, sommelier Aan de Poel
“Alex + Pinard in Amsterdam is an amazing wine bar. For cocktails, I go to Pulitzer’s bar, also in Amsterdam.”
