Discover top spots to enjoy wine in London<\/div>\n<\/div>Beer may be Britain\u2019s drink of choice, but wine is fast catching up in popularity among Londoners. <\/strong>To get some wine-tasting in on your next trip to London, New York Habitat is bringing you a short list of the city\u2019s top spots for connoisseurs and amateurs alike\u2014and, while you\u2019re there, how about a toast to your comfortable and convenient New York Habitat vacation accommodation in London<\/a>?<\/p>\n

Caponata is a recently opened restaurant in Camden<\/a> that offers a small but well-selected list of Sicilian wines. What makes it really special, though, is its leafy ground-floor osteria that features live jazz. What better way to spend an evening than with good wine and music?<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re searching for a broader selection, head to Kensington<\/a> Wine Rooms, which has over 100 wines to choose from, many from lesser-known regions and plenty of by-the-glass options that you won\u2019t find elsewhere.<\/strong> Glasses are poured from Enomatic machines that work like soda dispensers but keep the wine fresh and at the exact right temperature. Guests can help themselves by buying a \u2018smartcard\u2019 for a determined amount and then sample away!<\/p>\n

\n\t\"\"\n\t
London Accommodation: 2 Bedroom Apartment Rental in Southwark (LN-1103)<\/div>\n<\/div>For another extensive list, there\u2019s Vivat Bacchus on Farringdon Street, in the City<\/a>, whose cellar holds over 20,000 bottles of wine! What it may not carry, however, are the natural wines and artisanal cooking on hand at Terroirs in Charing Cross, which has become a hit with the locals.<\/p>\n

A great setting makes any glass of wine taste better, so check out 1707, the wine bar in famed department store Fortnum & Mason\u2019s lower-level food hall. <\/strong>There, you can enjoy New World wines in traditional, elegant, Old World surroundings. It is located in the highly popular and trendy Soho, a neighborhood\u00a0offering plenty of convenient accommodations<\/a>. A more modern alternative can be found in fashion emporium Selfridge\u2019s Wonder Bar, which has a wine jukebox that measures out good-sized samples and experts on hand to offer advice.<\/p>\n

Of course, another choice is to stop by Green & Blue, which is half wine bar, half wine shop, and pick up a bottle to bring back to your stylish\u2014and much more intimate\u2014New York Habitat flat in London<\/a>. Some suggestions are:

\n\t\"London<\/a>\n\t
