Oenophiles rejoice. Sommelier/wine consultants Joseph Bastianich and Sergio Esposito combined talents with chef/restauranteurs Mario Batali (Po, Babbo, Lupa) and Lidia Bastianich (Felidia, Fricco Bar, Becco) to create Italian Wine Merchants. The Tuscan setting is replete with burnished wood shelves of hand-selected Italian wines; the entire stock is stored down below in a climate-controlled cellar. There isn't an exhaustive array of, say, Prosecco, but there is the very best in selection, and, time availing, you will leave knowing enough about Prosecco and the virtues of your purchase to regale the worldliest of wine connoisseurs. The handpicked treasures are only rivaled by the warmth and knowledge of the partners as they patiently describe jewels at every price point.
