Septime La Cave \u2013 Paris, France<\/span><\/h2>\n

Starting us off with a wine bar in France, it was quite hard to choose just one in this wine country. But if we\u2019re thinking about a place that locals love as much as travelers, then <\/span>Septime La Cave<\/span><\/i> is definitely it. Come for the wide variety of orange wine and stay for the charming atmosphere and scrumptious dishes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Story Fact: We weren\u2019t kidding when we said each place has a story of it\u2019s own! <\/span>Septime <\/span><\/i>actually has a book for sale that delves into the daily life of the restaurant\u2014from their inspirations to recipes and more!\u00a0<\/span><\/h5>\n

Somm \u2013 Vilnius, Lithuania<\/span><\/h2>\n

You might not have thought that a wine bar from Lithuania would make the list, but we wanted to give a wide spread of wine bars across the world. And <\/span>Somm<\/span><\/i> over-delivers on each aspect of a wine bar. Top-rated chefs and sommeliers, hand-selected bottle choices, a clean, yet inviting atmosphere. It has everything you\u2019d want to immerse yourself in their wine and their story.<\/span><\/p>\n

Alberto\u2019s Lounge \u2013 Sydney, Australia<\/span><\/h2>\n

There are tons of wine bars in Australia, but we went with <\/span>Alberto\u2019s Lounge<\/span><\/i> for it\u2019s food, music, company, and of course, wine. It\u2019s like the backdrop of your favorite romance, filled with potential for falling in love.<\/span><\/p>\n

And you really will fall in love. Their gelato and ricotta are made daily, the chefs work tirelessly to create fresh recipes, and the wine selection<\/a> thrills. Make this your next stop when you\u2019re in Sydney!<\/span><\/p>\n

Weinbar Rutz \u2013 Berlin, Germany<\/span><\/h2>\n

We\u2019re not joking when we say <\/span>Weinbar<\/span><\/i> Rutz<\/span><\/i> has one of the most extensive and impressive wine lists in the country. They have over <\/span>900 bottles<\/span><\/i> to choose from\u2014900! Quite obviously, they offer a massive variety, from deep, thoughtful reds to joyous, celebratory bubbles. Not to mention, their chef (who once earned a Michelin Star) created a magical tasting menu to match the wine you choose. What a story to create, here!<\/span><\/p>\n

DiVino Wine Bar \u2013 Budapest, Hungary<\/span><\/h2>\n

A two-minute walk from St. Stephen\u2019s Basilica, <\/span>DiVino Wine Bar<\/span><\/i> is full of history and stories. Their main goal is to introduce Hungarian wine culture to more people while simultaneously bringing winemakers closer to the guests. They want that familial feeling while you sit on their outdoor terrace, sipping on their 150 different Hungarian wines.<\/span><\/p>\n

Experience the divine sense of life with <\/span>DiVino<\/span><\/i>!<\/span><\/p>\n

Enoteca Pitti Gola e Cantina \u2013 Florence, Italy<\/span><\/h2>\n

Speaking of family, <\/span>Enoteca Pitti Gola e Cantina<\/span><\/i> is a family-run wine bar right in the heart of Florence. Listen to the stories of the owners while you sip on some local Tuscan wine. Situated right on the Piazza Pitti, you can enjoy wonderful food pairings to a wide selection of high-end, small production wines from all over the country.<\/span><\/p>\n

Story Fact: All of their wines are offered by the glass, but that\u2019s not all you get! Each order is accompanied by the boundless knowledge of the owners. Get your fix of history, traditions, culture, and wine-making processes when you stop by.<\/span><\/h5>\n

Barrica 94 \u2013 Santiago, Chile<\/span><\/h2>\n

We\u2019re stepping away from Europe for a bit to head to the tales found in South America. <\/span>Chile is an underrated wine region<\/span><\/a>, and <\/span>Barrica 94<\/span><\/i> will prove that to you. From the outside brick, you wouldn\u2019t imagine the inside to be as luxurious and opulent as it is.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Here you\u2019ll get tasty seafood and classic Chilean fare, as well as first-rate Chilean wines. If you\u2019re looking for a place to test your pairing skills, then this cozy yet elegant setting is the place to go.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vroni\u2019s \u2013 Glasgow, Scotland<\/span><\/h2>\n

You may think of Scotland more for their beer and whisky, but <\/span>Vroni\u2019s<\/span><\/i> will have you thinking otherwise. It\u2019s one of the best in the city (if not the whole country), because of it\u2019s comprehensive and intimate nature. Think candlelit tables, yet international wines. Imagine bottles of bubbles, yet earthy reds. <\/span>Vroni\u2019s<\/span><\/i> has style <\/span>and<\/span><\/i> selection, and that\u2019s something you don\u2019t want to miss out on!<\/span><\/p>\n

White Noise Wine Bar \u2013 Seoul, South Korea<\/span><\/h2>\n

Now this is one of our favorite iconic wine bars around the world. Considered a hidden gem for locals, this is a spot that visitors don\u2019t want to miss\u2014especially if you\u2019re a book lover. The bar is actually filled with bookshelves, which are filled with books you are actually <\/span>encouraged to read<\/span><\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n

They want guests to read, talk, and drink, even until closing time (which is 3am!). And if you come alone, don\u2019t worry; they offer seats for one-person guests as well. Enjoy your me-time and your story time!<\/span><\/p>\n

20Spot \u2013 San Francisco, United States<\/span><\/h2>\n

The last stop on the list is back in the United States. There are <\/span>plenty<\/span><\/i> of wine bars across the country, from coast to coast. Today, we chose to go with <\/span>20Spot<\/span><\/i> for our U.S. pick. Though it\u2019s not nearly as expansive as some of the European options on this list, it makes up for it with its retro flare.<\/span><\/p>\n

With heated outdoor seating, reasonably-priced dishes, artsy d\u00e9cor, and stunning picks for their wines by the glass, it\u2019s a stop you want to make while you\u2019re in the city.<\/span><\/p>\n
