America's Best Wine Bars
Vino Italia Tapas, Honolulu
Hawaii isn’t just for mai tais. Vino Italia is an intimate, seductive bar with wine-country murals and a terrific selection of wines by the glass. Two-ounce pours are priced to encourage a wide-ranging ramble through the vineyards. Expect “comfort Italian” cibo with your vino: tapas-size offerings like truffled mac and cheese, agnolotti with langoustine, and an array of tasty ravioli.
Great Match: House-made agnolotti with baby langoustines and brown sage butter and local goat cheese, served with a glass of the 2010 Punta Crena Mataossu from Liguria, Italy, $30 total.
