Best Wine Bar List

Criteria

Wine bars are a precious part of today’s wine culture, even if it is hard to reach a hard and fast definition. The World’s Best Wine Lists adopts as a working definition of wine bar an establishment where it is possible and usual to order a glass or two of wine, and where the focus is squarely on the wine list. Even if it will be possible to have complementary food of some kind. Many wine bars also double as retail outlets, their lists are perhaps shaped by the preferences of their customers to an even greater extent than are those of hotels and restaurants. Judges will consider the criteria of breadth, depth, height, balance, selection, accuracy, originality, suitability, design, and value.
