Don't let the name fool you. This tapas and wine bar features specialty wines including the Chateau MoutonRothschild that sells for $850. If that's too high, they also have more down-to-earth wines with equally down-to-earth prices such as the Italian Pinot Grigio Vicolo that will run you $22 for the bottle and $5 for the glass. Pair that with a plate of cheese and high-end deli meats and you've got a Spaniard tapas and drinks night.
