America's 100 Best Wine Restaurants of 2019
This wine country hotspot forgoes pomp and circumstance for a bit of wit and whimsy, pouring hard-to-find wines alongside classics and serving thoughtful preparations of local, seasonal ingredients. Champagne flights, magnums and California heritage bottlings are also on offer.
From The Sommelier: “At TORC, we’re seeing our customers really responding well to comparative flight opportunities. For example, we offer a ‘Bubble Baller’ Champagne Flight of ’09 Cristal, ’06 Dom Perignon, Krug Grande CuvĂ©e, and Ruinart RosĂ©. We also offer a Soter ‘Origin’ Flight of four Oregon AVA Pinot Noirs.” —Cynthia O’Toole, Torc
