Description

Everything you need to know about City Winery: wine, wine, wine, cheese, wine. This massive (21,000 square feet!), Mediterranean-styled wine bar and music venue offers patrons a "Build-a-Barrel" special, which involves selecting crimson-colored grapes from the Olsen Family Vineyard, investing in an American Oak barrel, and then aging your own Pinot Noir. As for the menu, your meal of choice is dictated by one of the 500 varieties of wine available. Equally eclectic artists perform in front of stacked wine barrels; private parties dine among fruit-smelling, wine-making equipment downstairs; main-area guests access a tap that pumps up home-brewed ruby goodness straight from the cellar.

By Mikael Wood | Wed, February 22, 2012

The Australian singer-songwriter hasn’t had much luck in the studio of late: The Rebirth of Venus, from 2009, somehow felt smug and overly earnest at the same time, while last year’s Deeper Into Dream was exactly as mushy as its title suggested it... More »
