Cantine Isola - The energy of walking into Cantine Isola, I imagine, is much like it was when they first opened in 1896. That's 127 years ago! Today they continue to welcome us in, offering wines by-the-glass or the ability to open any bottle from their incredibly stocked shelves. One of the best details: they fill the entire bar with tapas, small plates, cheese & charcuterie, bruschetta, delights from the land and sea...any and all of the food is available to you when you're buying wine. You'll definitely opt for a second glass (or bottle.) cantineisola.com

Langosteria - When looking for an establishment with bravado and class, Langosteria is your place. They have recognition from both Michelin and the World's Top 50. The cultural footprint extends to their additional locations: on the coast of Ligura, Paris, St. Moritz, and a forthcoming London location - Milan, though, is their flagship. The wine cellar is deep, and ready for raiding. Their specialty is seafood, so get ready to pair with oysters, branzino, loup de mer, and allllllllllll the langoustines. You deserve a fancy experience, with delicate touches. langosteria.com

Ceresio 7 - We all deserve a sexy rooftop wine bar in our lives, and Ceresio 7 showcases one of the most memorable views in all of Milan. The polished service with wood and marble decor make the perfect environment to pop a bottle of Franciacorta, Barolo, or Brunello di Montalcino at sunset. The classic Lombardian food menu isn't afraid of some modern touches, you may even want to drink some French wine here. ceresio7.com

N’ombra De Vin - Wine is holy, in origin and in practice. No where in Milano can you have more connected holy experience than at N’ombra De Vin. Located inside the 16th Century refectory of the Agostinian Friars who would have roamed the pews and halls of the Basilica San Marco, right next door. Open from 10am-2am (closed on Sunday), you take in a breakfast meeting, have a spritz lunch, power happy hour, or make dinner out of it! The outdoor space is excellent for people watching along Via San Marco, while inside the dimly lit bar is great for a first date or romantic evening away. nombradevin.it
