For a gourmet experience and a light meal that won't break the bank (but may bend it to €30 or more, depending on the wines you select), head to this postmodern wine bar.
For Marco and Carla Trimani, serving fine foods to accompany glasses of wine chosen from among their thousands of labels is merely an extension of the family's 190 years in the vino trade.
The wine bar's tiny rooms, long stylish bar, and outdoor gazebo are tinged with elegance and popular with intellectuals and journalists. The food is excellent, from cheese assortments or Italian salamis to dishes such as carrè d'agnello alle erbe con cavolo rosso (herbed loin of lamb with red cabbage).
The daily changing menu might include Andalusian gazpacho or the strongly flavored trittico di crostini, a trio of bread slices generously topped with gorgonzola, stilton, and Roquefort, then baked and drizzled with chestnut honey.
