Wine card in Moscow

Our restaurant's primary strong point is of course the wine card. It doesn't make up a big encyclopedia with all possible world wine variants, but it contains very good exemplars that we are really proud of.

We don't let our guests hesitate over a choice of wine. With our wide wine card that consists of a great number of fine Italian, French, Spanish and other wines - not too expensive as well as rare collection ones - it's hard to cope with a decision without the help of a professional. Thus, our attentive sommelier will help to select a wine so that it harmonized the best way with the dish complementing and increasing the gamut of gustatory sensations.

What is important to underscore is that our sommelier's extensive knowledge is such that he can very quickly decide on the best wine to match your dish. Undoubtedly, this is both a gift and a skill. By the definition of their job, sommeliers taste a lot of wine. What separates the five-star sommeliers from the rest is their chef-like ability to pick up an accent of a dish (a hint of vanilla in a sauce) rather than generically pair a white wine with a seafood entr?e. Of course, you can create your own a la carte meal.

Due to the diverse nature of our wine list all items may not be available and vintages are subject to change.

The term "wine card" is comparatively new in the restaurant business. Heretofore spirits and wines were just listed in the general menu. Nowadays the situation and the culture of spirits and wines' consuming have changed. So having a sommelier in an elite restaurant is evident.

A wine card in Moscow is composed so that it could show all the information about wine presented in a restaurant. As a rule, wine information is written in the language of the producer, or in the language that presents information on a bottle. The correct full title of a wine goes first, and then the harvest year is indicated while the wine card in Moscow can contain wine of the same sort, but of different harvests. Then the wine category in letters as well as information about a producer is indicated. The last one goes alcoholic content, bottle volume and price.

Wines are selected according to quality, colour and producer.

Sommelier's services are needed when the main choice of dishes has been made, and now drinks are to be chosen. The sommelier can recommend this or that drink that is perfect for a concrete dish. A client then decides whether he wants to follow these recommendations while tastes differ.

The wine card in Moscow is not less important than the menu for a restaurant. Much attention is paid to the wine card's design. As a rule, its design echoes the menu and restaurant's design in general.

The central place is traditionally given to wines - they accompany restaurant guests' main courses.

Our wine card begins with sparkling wines, then go vermouths and dessert wines, the last are fortified wines and hard drinks.

The next issue is the wine origin. Certainly the wine offer should be diverse and take into account clients' tastes and preferences. Besides, wine should correspond to the restaurant's food ingredients. As our cuisine is mainly European, we have best selections of Italian, French, Spanish and other sorts of wine.

Color range in the wine collection directly connected with peculiarities of the restaurant's cuisine. We start from the specific character of our menu taking into account the initial axiom that "white goes with white, red - with red", but having not forgotten about organoleptic peculiarities of each wine.

Classic traditional wines go together with some rare but vivid wine examples.

"Casa Del Vino's" Moscow wine card has been specially composed by our sommelier Oleg Kuznetsov to satisfy all your wine interests.
