Café D'Wine boasts of the best Wine Wall in the city! Elsie Gabriel
Similar to the ones you may find in Europe, Café D’Wine in Khar Mumbai is
an intimate wine café. Quant place which includes a wine boutique, this cozy setting
is the perfect place to relax with
friends or have a romantic dinner conversation over wine.
Warmly welcomed by Sanjay
Mirani of Café D’Wine, entering the wine café brought back my travels to the
French sidewalks and the Italian Wine cafes, which enhance your indulgence in
quality time over a glass of bubbly. The entire place is stylish and the décor has
distinct Italian art works around.Its not a huge place where you would get
lost, but a cozy place to simply indulge in a series of wines offered with
various multi cuisines. It is a class apart and way above the average wine café .
I believe Sanjay
is a well travelled and experienced restauranteur; and a wine connoisseur who
knows his wines well.
Their personalized service and atmosphere will make you feel at home, as
you graze over flavorful food selections. The ‘Wine Wall’ is very attractive
and lets you study the wines at one glance, ofcourse all well explained in
detail by Sanjay himself who finds the time to take you around the world with
all the wines on display.
I simply loved the pairing of the Prawn cocktail my favorite appetizer, together
with the White Casablanca Sparkling wine offered by Ralph Craven our dear friend
whom it was lovely to meet after ages. Ralph outlined that the sparkling
wine has entered the fray by Good Drop
Wine Cellars. Casablanca is affordably priced and it is a blend of Sauvignon
Blanc, Chenin Blanc, Moscato and Shiraz and is made using the Charmat method.
The afternoon was
spent over Smoked Chicken salads, Char grilled cottage cheese, Crispy Lamb with
glass noodles, Char grilled chicken with red wine sauce and some lovely lemon Meringue
to complete the menu. All sprinkled with lovely conversations over the ‘Casablanca’
bubbly which stole the evening.
They have a great
wine list at ridiculously reasonable prices, that’s why dropping in to unwind
with some music around too, makes for a good experience.
The wine and
gourmet combination dishes offered here are amazing and they go great with
the atmosphere of the place. The staff is friendly and the food is served hot
and quick. Café D’Wine obviously knows what they’re talking about when it comes
to good wines!
