P&V has always incorporated an element of education into its processes. Outside, in the fairy-light-strung courtyard, a blackboard is scrawled with wine and snack options. But there’s no wine list, only themes: you don’t choose labels or varietals here, just whether you feel like a ‘fun white’, a ‘fancy white’, a ‘complex orange’ or a ‘baller red’.
No two ways about it, Sydney's wine bar scene is flourishing. Full to the brim. Spilling over. A decade ago, there were only a handful of wine bars. Now? They're all over town. And we're here to happily drink them up. What's more, wine bars are now some of the best spots in Sydney to grab a nice dinner with friends.
It makes no difference whether you're a novice or an expert, fancy something natural or classic, old world or new, or whether you want to spend moderately or extravagantly, Time Out Sydney's critics, including Food & Drink Editor Avril Treasure, have curated this list for every palate, at every price point. Bottoms up.
