Vinland Wine List
About Vinland
A world-class and widely-awarded wine list – and as deep as they get – can be found at this modern yet retro, vibey Nordic brasserie. Paris meets New York meets casually elegant Scandinavia, it’s suitable for date nights, wine-geek nights and smaller functions too.
Your langoustine or côte de bouef will be in great wine company, that is for sure. Skewed towards the higher end, this roughly 170-page wine list covers traditional areas both widely and deeply, including the US West Coast. With the restaurant located in the former US Embassy, and California’s wines already well established among its classical European counterparts, expect to find interesting verticals across the board. There is a really sublime by-the-glass program, excellent for sampling some sought-after wines, and some bargains to be had as well.

We found this list to be outstanding for a newcomer. Its precision and clarity make it incredibly approachable, offering an easy-to-navigate experience for guests. The well-structured 'by the glass' selection is a standout feature, providing a diverse range of choices that cater to every palate. You can immediately sense the passion and meticulous attention to detail that went into crafting this list. [Star Wine List of the Year Norway 2024.]

It’s hard to believe this place was opened only one year ago with such a diverse selection, listing benchmark producers through to up-and-coming ones. [Gold Star: Best Newcomer List – Star Wine List of the Year International Final 2025.]

A glass-pour list showing dedicated curation while also offering a vast amount of choice in still wines. Spanning fresh discoveries and mature vintages, both classics and new wave producers share the page. Most admirably, the selection devotes attention to regions outside Europe as well. This wine programme is a star on the ascendant! [Gold Star: Best By-the-Glass List – Star Wine List of the Year Norway 2025.]
