City Wine Shop is a little slice of Europe amidst the hustle and bustle of Spring Street. Opposite Parliament House, its olive-green tiled bar, ceiling-high wine wall and chalkboard specials channel old Italy. Sip European gems from the ever-evolving list like the 2022 Monopole by Dr Loosen Riesling or the 2023 Tempier Bandol Rosé. The Juniper Gin martini, crafted using their exclusive gin, is another solid choice. If you’re feeling peckish, nibble on olives and steak tartare, or order the crispy chicken schnitzel if you’re craving something more substantial. Before you leave, get a wine recommendation and pop into sister venue Spring Street Grocer next door for the perfect cheese pairing. Bellisimo!
