Profile

In a neighborhood that somehow glimmers as much as it fades, this upscale wine shop / wine bar adds a bright patch of European class. Owners Ashley and Jay Donayre, strong believers in sampling before buying, hold weekly tastings that encourage a liberal sip before customers decide on the right bottle or glass. Since the bar (a long, dim hallway of couches and small tables) and the store (well-stocked with over 350 vintages) are divided by a completely transparent glass wall, you’ll likely be ogling the shelves as you drink one of the menu’s 35 international vintages and nosh on an eclectic selection of cheeses and cured Spanish and Italian meats. Such attractive advertising is no coincidence. Donayre encourages patrons to browse the store, purchase a bottle and for a $15 corkage fee, pop it open at a table next door.

Candles, high ceilings, a minimalist design palate, and dim lighting make this Tribeca emporium a contemporarily gothic, yet romantic setting where an artsy, well-to-do local crowd relishes Italian wine. If you just absolutely adore that glass of Nero dÂ’Avola, purchase it nextdoor at Vino VinoÂ’s wine boutique, separated only by a glass wall that divides its way across the whole establishment. Sipping a glass of Vernaccia from one of the banquettes while watching the retail action occurring across the wall makes the place feel a bit like a chic psych ward, but youÂ’re more likely to be amused by watching the wandering oenophiles than you would be staring at another brick wall. With so many offices in the area, itÂ’s best to hit Vino Vino for an after work drink, unless you want the place all to yourself in the later hours of the night.
