"Given Copenhagen’s proliferation of exquisite cocktail joints and the Mikkeller-fueled craft-beer craze, it’s hard for a wine bar to stand out in the city. But Ved Stranden 10, with its charming by-the-canal location, does exactly that. There’s no menu here—rather, just an ever-changing roster of wines from mostly small producers. In summer, you might find salvation on the terrace with an Austrian rosé by winemaker Christian Tschida; in winter, you'll keep warm with a Piedmontese red from Roagna. Swing by on Wednesday evenings for one of the weekly tastings." - Alia Akkam
