WHAT TO EXPECT FROM A GOOD WINE BAR

M

elbourne wine culture is becoming quite trendy these days and the

wine bars around the city are picking it fast. It means that a line of new wine bars on the lines of old but reputed like Richmond Eats are coming up very fast. All the Richmond restaurants are opening their doors to the most interesting and tastier wines from all over the world to lure the customers. The main reason behind the move is not only to attract customers but they really want to serve their customers with most affordable and excellent wines and lift their standards to new heights. You can try some of the following ways to find out if the newly opened wine bar is actually serving vibrant wines to your palate or not:


• Who actually is making the Wine: Wines are usually made by local people or by a team of families. Although machines are used, but actually it is the people who are behind the process of making wines. At a Friday night drinks Richmond wine bar, the person who is serving usually has the knowledge of who made that particular wine. You can consider it as directly from vineyard-to-glass wine. If he is asking about brands, then it means various companies who are in this business. If you are not after brands, you can ask him the region from where that wine is coming. You will also find that the farms, from where the wine is sourced, are listed near the entry. • They will Oblige You in every Possible Way: Do you start with some sweet wine or end the session with Champagne or you want Sauvignon Blanc along with rib eye etc. during the happy hour drinks in Richmond? The sommelier will offer a range of options and she is ready to give you advice if you ask about the paring. She never will tell you what is wrong for you since having wine has no rules. They will try to make you happy in all the possible ways and will not interfere with your choice of combinations.


• Hospitality: You go through the wine list in the bar and find some really good wine such as bubbles or bottle of white wine and are eagerly waiting for the wine to be served. But unluckily, this particular wine is not stored in a cold cellar and is served just barely cold. Any good bar will place the wine on ice and offer you something extra to sip till the time your awesome drink gets chilled. This is actual hospitality from the wine bar rather than giving you warm wine.


• Option to reject the Wine: Sometimes there are very strong wines which are quite weird for an amateur drinker. Wines, getting a bad taste, due to the cork, are very common. If you are new to the world of wine, you may think that you have been given a rotten wine which is not the case. Attria is one of the leading Richmond restaurants that have an exquisite collection of wines and food. Attria Wine Bar https://www.attria.com.au/
