This new bar featured in a recent issue of Australian Bartender
VinoBravo is another venture to recently launch itself into the lucrative north-side market. Owner David Brown is passionate about wine and simple, good-quality food. Softly lit and with plenty of places to perch this little gem is all about the Italian enoteca – a wine bar for locals where food, conversation and a glass of wine combine.
If you’re peckish then there’s a range of foods on offer, from ‘A Little taste’ such as lemon & chilli marinated olives to ‘Little Toasts’, like Sardines with marinated red onion and lemon. The kitchen also hosts a selection of Paninis, Vegetables, Cured Meats and Cheeses.
Brown has an obvious passion and interest for wine – and if there’s ‘not enough by the glass’ then it says more about you than VinoBravo. For sparkles, try the French Cremant (it’s a bit softer and creamier than Champagne) or the Italian Moscato.
If it’s bianco you want then look to the Yarra Valley Pinot Grigio or the Soave Classico as a good choice, and for red try a Barbera d’Alba as an all-rounder for food or a Vallpolicella. Both should hold up well.
