New on Wine List Confidential: The Barbary
The Barbary: Wine List Confidential Score: 90
Out there: the ‘thrillingly alien’ wine list of The Palomar’s sister restaurant, The Barbary
From a restaurant described by Marina O’Loughin in The Guardian as ‘thrillingly alien’ comes a thrillingly alien wine list, which dips in and out of a small selection of seemingly disparate regions – from the Judean Hills of Israel to South African’s Swartland via Beaujolais and Burgenland – and conjures up some fascinating drinking options.
How about a ‘txakoli’ from Crittenden Estate in Australia? Or a Grüner Veltliner from the Willamette Valley? A Fleurie from one of Beaujolais’ most-repsected biodynamic producers, Julien Sunier? Or a savoury orange wine from Andert in Burgenland?
This list might be small but its bold and entertaining, and we like it.
