Cozying Up to a Waterfront Glass of Wine in Sausalito, California
Boasting views of passing sailboats on Richardson Bay and Tiburon in the distance, Wellington's Wine Bar is a Sausalito gem. The glass walls of this open, roomy warehouse filter in sunlight, creating a cozy feel. The casual, leisurely spot feels like a huge living room: a bar, comfy couches, chairs, and wooden tables are scattered in its space, and chess boards and games like Scrabble lay around for drinkers to play. Try a flight to sample three wines on their list, such as the soft, elegant Expression 44 Pinot Noir or the T-Vine 2006 Petite Sirah. Order a half-glass of a sparking rose, or a glass or bottle of one of their Zinfandels. Refreshing recommendations on a sunny day, particularly if you're out on the patio: the Steigl, a lemon-y beer concoction from Salzburg, and the Duchy Originals Organic English Ale from Oxfordshire. The best thing about Wellington's? Like the owner's favorite wine bars in England, this establishment is warm, inviting, and jovial: pretentiousness is left at the door.
