The World's Top 35 Wine Bars
-
Rank 1. Sunday Vinyl
Wine Bar
A wine bar that actually has a personality, Sunday Vinyl pairs serious pours with a rotating vinyl soundtrack, and the whole room feels like a dinner party someone threw in a really good mood. The crowd skews knowledgeable but not stuffy, the kind of people who are happy to drink something unexpected if you sell it right. The Wednesday flight nights, where wine gets matched to a specific artist's catalog, are genuinely clever and worth planning around.

Rank 2. Madeira Park
Wine Bar
Poncey-Highland's favorite neighborhood wine bar leans hard into the Madeira, with an eclectic list deep enough to keep even the wine-obsessed occupied for a while. The kitchen, though, refuses to be the sidekick, turning out shareable seasonal plates that hold their own. Inside it's moody and close; outside it's buzzy and people-watching gold. The crowd looks like they came for a glass and decided to stay for dinner, which is exactly what happens.

Rank 3. Sauvage
Natural Wine Bar
Sauvage is a natural wine bar tucked into a historic cottage off McDowell, the kind of place where the person pouring your glass actually wants to talk about what's in it. The selection leans toward obscure regions and funky bottles you won't find at Total Wine, and the owner is genuinely good at reading what you'll like. Grab a tinned fish snack and let him guide you. The room feels like someone's very cool living room.

Rank 5. POP Wine Bar
Natural Wine Bar
POP is a wine bar doing its best impression of a Parisian boîte, which is a sentence you don't expect to write about Saskatoon. Oysters, caviar, artisanal cheese, and a wine list built around small producers doing weird and wonderful things with natural wines. The cocktails hold their own too, from properly cold Martinis to milk punches. It made Canada's 100 Best Bars list, and honestly that tracks.

Rank 8. Kid Sister
Wine Bar
A neighborhood wine bar on Seventh Street that actually feels like somewhere you'd want to hang out, not just somewhere you'd end up. The menu of small bites and pours changes often, which keeps the regulars coming back and gives first-timers a reason to return. Desert-toned walls, a crowd that ordered without overthinking it, and spritzes that justify the trip on their own.

Wine Bar

Rank 18. Coupes
Champagne Wine Bar
A Champagne bar tucked into a Highland Park strip mall, which sounds like a punchline until you're inside surrounded by gold fixtures, pink drapes, and a U-shaped bar full of people who look like they just came from a very successful lunch. The bubbly selection leans heavily French, but Texas wines make an appearance too, and the cocktail list gives non-Champagne people a graceful way in.

Rank 30. The Four Horsemen
Natural Wine Bar
A Michelin-starred natural wine bar that somehow makes you feel cooler just for getting a table. The menu chases the seasons wherever they lead, which means it's constantly surprising and rarely predictable. The room is small, the wait is real, and everyone in there knows it's worth it. Regulars look like they own records you've never heard of. Book ahead or prepare to hover hopefully near the door.

Rank 33. Los Milics Vineyards
Wine Bar
Arizona wine is having a moment, and this sleek Old Town tasting room is a good place to catch up. Los Milics pours wines from its own vineyard in a region people are starting to take seriously, and the team behind it also runs one of Scottsdale's most respected restaurants, so they know what they're doing. The bar staff are genuinely chatty and will walk you through a flight without making you feel like a student.
