The passion-project of Austrian Master Sommelier Aldo Sohm (considered Austria’s premier sommelier), this charming New York City wine bar offers a stunning selection of international wines. Not surprising, considering Sohm was the head sommelier for Le Bernardin (three Michelin stars).
The put together wine list is home to 40 wines by the glass and more than 200 by the bottle. From bubbly French champagnes, creamy Oregon chardonnays and meaty Argentinan Malbecs, the variety spans the gamut.
Warm and inviting, Aldo Sohm is great for amateur palates and experiences sommeliers all the same. The cozy wine bar is a great jumping off point if you’re looking to deepen your knowledge or explore new wine-producing regions. Sohm’s eye for wine is unparalleled, made evident by the excellent wines on offer.
