America's 100 Best Wine Restaurants 2019

Chef Gerald Sombright’s globally inspired food meets a wine list that recently became all-American. Monthly “Sommelier Picks” are chosen to complement the season’s dishes, or you can select from almost 30 by-the-glass options.
From The Sommelier: “When we rolled the [exclusively American] wine program out, we weren’t sure how guests would take it, but people have been blown away by the experience of drinking Old World-style wines produced in the U.S. Guests seem more interested than ever in what America has to offer.” —Michael Broughton, Ario
Dish We Loved: Key West pink shrimp and local grits, with kaffir lime and tabasco cream
