Vin25 Bistro & Wine Bar

The first thing you notice about Vin25 is the concept: every single bottle on the list is available by the glass. All 23 of them. That's not a gimmick — that's a commitment. The list is compact, but it's been curated with actual intention, not just pulled from a distributor's default catalog.

Twenty-three labels sounds small until you start reading. Vin25 covers Burgundy Chardonnay (Le Clos D'Augustin), Willamette Pinot Noir (Two Messengers), a Mosel Riesling from Weingut Gessinger, Vouvray Chenin Blanc from Sauvion, and a JL Chave Cotes-du-Rhone — that's legitimate range for a list this size. The bubbles section earns its keep with Collet Brut Champagne alongside a Mont Marcal Rosé Cava, so you're not stuck choosing between house Prosecco and nothing. Reds lean Old World with a Barone Ricasoli Brolio Chianti and a Chateau Tour De Ségur Saint-Émilion rounding out the Bordeaux and Italian corners. The gaps are real — no skin-contact wines, no South American depth, and Southern Hemisphere is largely absent — but for what it is, the selection punches well above its weight class.

This is where Vin25 does something genuinely unusual: the by-the-glass program is the entire list. Every bottle from $48 to $88 pours by the glass at $12 to $22, which means you can drink the Dutton Goldfield Russian River Chardonnay or the Labouré-Roi Burgundy Pinot Noir without committing to a full bottle. That's a meaningful win for solo diners, indecisive tables, and anyone who wants to explore across styles in a single sitting.
