What Joe Campanale is choosing the producers that mean the most to him, giving them a full page bio in the list, and showcasing their wines. It’s a beautiful way to organize a wine list and he’s continuing to build it out.

It’s the best wine list in the city right now. It’s everything you’d want from a list at a four star restaurant, and it’s incredibly well priced. Also, I love the fact that John Ragan pulled a Robin Hood and tucked in tons of funky stuff with a bottle age under $100.

John Slover - formerly of Cru and also of Bar Henry - takes his brilliantly humanitarian idea to offer more than half of the list by the half bottle. He’ll open a full bottle, pour you half, charge you half, and offer the rest by the glass.

THE COUNTING ROOM
Not really a wine bar, but under the radar spot in Williamsburg that has a short, smart wine list that you can order from by the half or full bottle.
