Why is Wine bar becoming more and more popular? For wine players, the appeal of wine bar is obvious. Professional wine bar By introducing new wine brands around the world, creatively pairing with local flavors, sings the art of wine that makes people feel slightly intoxicated. The eclectic bar atmosphere certainly provides more enjoyment for wine tasting enthusiasts’ drinking experience, but what exactly is the fundamental reason why wine bar is popular all over the world? Davis Tan, chief sommelier at the popular Singapore bar Fool Wine Bar, explained that global wineries are working hard to expand the Asian market, supplying a variety of elegant and flavorful wines with high standards with wine lovers from Singapore and Hong Kong.
“Disclaimers have become more quality-oriented,” Davis explained, revealing that he is targeting the wine's temperature-controlled storage and premium glasses as their goal to enhance the tasting experience. “Over the past decade, people have been working hard to explore more unique and newer wine regions, and also focus on producers and style development,” he added.
Because of this, natural brewing of fine wines through sustainable, organic, biodynamic farming methods and minimal intervention has become the mainstream of the market. For casual wine tasting and loyal wine lovers, this also deepens the opportunity to recognize and appreciate more and more wines. “This allows us to explore more wines from different production areas. As climate change affects the planet, the rise of products from new production areas will soon stop dividing wines by region and look at everything from a global perspective,” Davis shared.
Based on this trend, Davis emphasized that the most important thing that guests should keep in mind during the entire wine bar experience is to “increase their understanding of their tastes and preferences, and be brave enough to interact with the sommelier.” If you also want to know what are the best wine bars in Singapore, let's take a look at the list of the best wine bars that “Vogue” has rated for Singapore!
