Carlisle Wine Bar
Dark and inviting, this is the kind of place that makes you wish you were a regular. In summer, pavement tables are perfect for a beer and a long segue into a rustic Italian dinner. The wine list is top notch, including reasonably priced old and rare bottles. But it's not all about wine. A handsome barman will whip you up a fine cocktail, in between flipping over the vinyl. Friday and Saturday can get rowdy.

Gertrude St Enoteca
The Fitzroyalty regulars don’t mind sharing the banquette space and there are a few more tables out the back among the wine. The ‘list’ at this svelte wine bar/bottle shop changes regularly and favours European grapes with erudite advice on same. Bar snacks are sourced from Victoria’s top suppliers; you can easily make a meal of a couple of plates. While cake doesn’t normally score a mention in bar reviews, the Enoteca’s are made fresh each day and are wonderful. Order a sticky if you need an excuse.

Gerald’s Bar
Wine by the glass is democratically selected at Gerald’s and they spin some fine vintage vinyl from behind the curved wooden bar. Gerald himself is out the back preparing to feed you whatever he feels like on the day: goat curry, seared calamari, meatballs, trifle. Whatever it is, it’s good.

Lina’s Bistro a Vin
Although serving up admirable bistro fare, this Parisian-styled wine bar is loved by locals as a drinking spot, especially the cheery back courtyard. The vin selection is comprehensive.

Gerald's Bar
Wine by the glass is democratically selected at Gerald's and they spin some fine vintage vinyl from behind the curved wooden bar. The bar won Australian Gourmet Traveller's bar of the year in 2010. If you get hungry, there are delightful morsels (of the likes of terrine and pork belly) to sink your teeth into. From Carlton, continue up Rathdowne St into Carlton North.
