Low key, tremendously knowledgable staff, and they're not shy about uncorking the good stuff. </p> http://www.gothamist.com/2004/11/22/cheaper_wine_events.php#comment-35733 http://www.gothamist.com/2004/11/22/cheaper_wine_events.php#comment-35733 Comments Mon, 22 Nov 2004 15:33:51 -0500 <p>Actually, Vintage New York (one location in SoHo, another on the UWS), is a good place to taste a variety of wines on the cheap. $5 gets you five pours, which tend to be rather generous if you're polite and sincerely interested in the wines. Yes, it's all New York juice, but if you know what to look for (i.e. Finger Lake Riesling and North Fork Cab Franc) and what to avoid (i.e. any NY state Pinot Noir), it's a fun way to experience a number of different styles for less than the price of a single glass at most places. </p>
