San Fransisco
Owing to its proximity to the Napa and Sonoma Valleys, there are more than a few places in San Francisco to sample the best wines California has to offer. Wine Down is both charming and unpretentious, entirely focused on small California producers, and the perfect place to try some great local produce at a reasonable price. For more international fair, try The Press Club, a swanky space on the outskirts of the financial district where you’ll be spoilt for choice trying to pick from five pages of wines by the glass.
