BEVERINE

Its list offers more than one hundred natural and biodynamic wines by the glass or bottle. The Spanish Volandera, red from garnacha grapes (R$ 23 a glass), stands out.

MOUTH NERA

The house’s proposal is to offer a wine rotation with 15 labels, among sparkling, red, white, rosé and dessert wine. It is the customer who chooses the rhythm, who can go on nibbling while drinking little by little. The menu includes, for example, Chatelain de Filippon, a wine from the Bordeaux region. To go with it, the mini pizzas can be topped with tomato sauce, raw ham, buffalo mozzarella and pesto (R$ 53).

It has a reinforced list of wines at good value for money in its letter, which concentrates 60 labels —like the Brazilian Vaccaro Merlot (R$ 16 a glass). For those who want to order a whole bottle, an alternative is Mád Tokaj Kardos Dry Furmint (R$ 139), from Hungary. For snacking and sharing, there’s duck croquette (R$36) and the cheese board and handmade sausages, with dairy products from Serra das Antas (MG), jams, pickles, grapes and dried fruit (R$53).

PALOMA

The bar, at the foot of Copan, is a brother and neighbor of Fel, a bar famous for its cocktails. The purpose of the address is to serve wines in an unpretentious way, without the pomp that still surrounds consumption habits in Brazil —for this reason, it seeks to work with young and less traditional labels. A good way to get to know the house’s work is by ordering the executive lunch, which costs R$55 — and, for another R$15, it comes with a glass of wine.
