Mietta's Review
This excellent addition to Melbourne's wine bar scene has a nicely laid back atmosphere, good snacks, and as would be expected a great selection of wines. Take your choice from tables or spread out at one of the long communal benches. A serve of olives (several types) comes in a long, narrow trough. That and a hearty Heathcote red provide a blissful interlude.
