Brooklyn for Wine Lovers
Ten new wine bars in Brooklyn to check out
Wine bars in Brooklyn are hotter than Brooklyn in July, and it seems like a new one opens every day. Below are ten recent arrivals that are perfect for an after-work drink with coworkers, a night out with friends, a romantic date, or your next trip to the Big Apple.
Brooklyn Winery (Williamsburg): It’s the real deal–an actual winery in the heart of Williamsburg–that also houses a wine bar stocked with staff favorites. 
Hillside Wine Bar(Vinegar Hill): The perfect place to relax with wine and small plates while waiting for your table at Vinegar Hill House next door. 
Thirstbaravin (Crown Heights): The excellent food and small, focused wine list of this loft-like bar make it well worth the visit. 
Brookvin (Park Slope): Wine aficionado Aaron Hans opened this wine bar with a streamlined and eclectic wine list in 2009, across the street from his wine shop, Big Nose Full Body. 
The Castello Plan(Ditmas Park): Peruse their list of over 130 wines from small producers around the world by the light of a restored floodlight from a Navy aircraft carrier, and your faith in humanity’s ingenuity will be restored. 
The Owl’s Head (Bay Ridge): Exposed brick walls, original tin ceiling and a 12-foot chalkboard set the tone for a laid-back but sincere wine experience. 
The Jakewalk (Carroll Gardens): Feels like a comfy neighborhood bar that just happens to have over 200 spectacular wine choices. 
Custom American Wine Bar (Williamsburg): Candlelight and an easily navigable wine list featuring American wines make this the perfect place if you are just learning about wine. 
Mauzac(Fort Greene): The copper-topped bar and rows of sleek wine bottles call out for a few hours of conversation at the bar. 
Pinkerton (Williamsburg): New World wines, affordable prices, and a sidewalk patio–what more could a city oenophile ask for?
