Wine, in all its forms, has always been a liquor that exemplifies sophistication and class. A perfect backdrop for wine is Mile High City, Denver. This mountainous city has one of the best climates in the nation brought by this terrain. Not just this, but it also makes the perfect blend of weather for having a mild and sunny climate, touted to have “300 days of sunshine a year,” according to Denver’s official tourism website.

Imagine yourself taking a sip from the wine glass while relaxing by the balcony of a restaurant overlooking the mountains. More than this, Denver also has one of the most beautiful park systems in the United States. No wonder why the city has been home to several wine bars that are exceptionally perfect for every experience. Social Scene has teamed up with experts to bring you the Top 10 wine bars in Denver.

 

 

1. Vesta

Vesta, a wine bar that serves food selections with the boldest of flavors, is Westword’s Readers’ Choice as the best wine bar in Denver. Its sumptuous options for the classic drink and food are given, and it is interesting to learn about the name. Taken from the Roman goddess of the hearth, the name “Vesta” equates to a restaurant that serves a menu created by an executive chef and one of the most respected kitchen experts in Colorado.

2. Rino Yacht Club

Unlike other wine bars that usually stand on themselves as a separate venue, Rino Yacht Club is situated in the middle of The Source, a shopping mall located just at the heart of the city.

It features a ubiquitous staircase, forklift, and mezzanine, as well as a tall and beautifully laid out wood ceiling. The owner is a certified sommelier and the restaurant plays jazz music every night.
