"For the budding sommeliers and the everyday imbiber alike, Astor Wines & Spirits is the perfect place to try new wines, or learn about them to begin with. This emporium is outfitted with a tasting bar and “cool room” to store its more rare and vintage collections, and hosts timely classes, free tastings and other events (like frequent sales) in an iconic NoHo building. And even if you're just stopping in to select a quick dinnertime accompaniment, their descriptive labels alongside every bottle will make you feel like you chose the perfect bottle for any occasion." - Carbone Smolan Agency
