Wine Connection

Colonial District, the Quays & Marina Bay


Oenophiles love this savvy wine store and bar at Robertson Quay. The team works closely with winemakers across the world, which means no intermediary. They have an interesting wine list and very palatable prices: glasses from S$7 and bottles as low as S$30. Edibles include decent salads and tartines, not to mention top-notch cheeses from their fabulously stinky, next-door Cheese Bar.
