This free-flowing Italian wine bar is the ideal place to guzzle down a few glasses of vino from a dizzyingly large selection of reds and whites, as well as sangria, wine cocktails and bubblies.
It’s all so easy here: make a beeline for the chandelier of wine glasses and below it you’ll find shelf after shelf of bottles separated by chilled and unchilled varieties, which you can pour at your leisure. If you’re feeling peckish, Esola cooks up some hearty fare that pairs well with wine, such as grilled steaks, pasta and cheese platters; don’t miss out on the addictive French fries slathered with anchovy butter.
The all-you-can-drink wine deal is priced at ¥1,490 for two hours, or spend an extra ¥500 to imbibe at a more civilised pace. For greater variety, an option including beer and highballs is available at ¥1,990 for two hours or ¥2,490 with no time limit.
