Address: Calle Río Lerma 159, Cuauhtémoc
Somma is located on one of the busiest streets of the Cuauhtémoc neighbourhood, full of restaurants of all styles, so a wine bar in this location was more than necessary.

Address: Sinaloa 74, Ciudad de México
In their own words, “They don't pour anything they wouldn't like to drink”. They mainly seek to offer honest, high quality products from all corners of Spain, although they also include a couple of good Germans, French and Mexicans. Their selection is a way of being in the world, a belief based on the fact that the figure of the winegrower has to be present. They are always moving away from starry figures and looking for the essence of these "rescuers" of the wine of yesteryear, the one of all life, the one we keep in our memories since childhood, without artifices or gimmicks. The glasswar...

Chapulin is, without a doubt, one of the best Mexican restaurants in the Polanco area.

The wine selection has a Mexican focus, but there are also wines available from other parts of the world, as they are fed from the general wine cellar at the Hotel Presidente. Their selection of wines by the glass and bottles from medium and small Mexican wine producers is one of the largest in the city and the country. They also have a great selection of Mexican spirits.

Cicatriz is located in the trendy neighbourhood of La Juarez, right at a corner where their big black doors are wide open. This is a cosy, casual place with a long bar, a lot of wine and other specials of the day. The interior is sparse, with nothing on the walls except a little blackboard where you find the wines offered by the glass. Also visit the bathroom, which is more like an art exposition.

Si Mon is located in the limits of Colonia Roma, in a small place that looks like a basement, with brick ceilings and walls, and dim light (though enough to see the shelves full of local wine). Si Mon has gone from a closed space dedicated to wine tastings to an open wine bar with a selection of Mexican cheeses and tapas. “Bulk wine” is their catchword as a part of the idea to make wine more approachable.

The Palm in Mexico City is a true steak & lobster house.

Vigneron is inspired by the European "cave à manger", where the main focus is wine and where you can enjoy a glass or a bottle in a casual and relaxed atmosphere. As the name of the place indicates, the focus is on the vignerons, and the idea is to transmit the essence of the people who take care of the vineyard and make the wine. Their motto is "small producers, great wines", and the list always reflects two essential factors: the terroir and the vigneron. The result is a wine list composed of old world wines that speak for themselves. It holds around 180 references in many different styl...
