"If you want to impress someone with your wine knowledge (even if you don’t actually have much, yet), bring them to Terroir in Tribeca. The huge wine list is full of detailed notes, which you can try to repeat out loud as casually as possible. You could also suggest doing a flight tasting of five ($50), six ($62), or eight wines ($68), curated by a member of the staff who will walk you through each wine, explaining the varietal, tasting notes, and producer. All of which you can say you definitely already knew." - matt tervooren
