7 editor picks in Baltimore.
7 wine bar places in Baltimore we have eaten in, sorted by editor score. All cuisines in Baltimore | Wine Bar across every city.
Baltimore's wine bars have multiplied into a genuine scene, many of them leaning toward natural and low-intervention bottles. Le Comptoir du Vin in Station North set an early tone with its tiny room and natural list, while Grand Cru downtown takes a more classic approach and Fadensonnen pours wine and sake in an open-air Station North setting.
Le Comptoir du Vin in Station North is a tiny natural-wine bistro from Rosemary Liss, pouring grower wines beside a weekly-changing French menu.
TipThe menu changes weekly and the room seats barely a dozen; reserve well ahead.
Grand Cru in Belvedere Square is a wine bar and bottle shop in one, pouring a deep by-the-glass list with cheese and charcuterie inside the market building.
TipIt is bar and bottle shop together, so you can drink a glass then take the bottle home.
V-No Wine Bar in Fells Point is a wine bar and shop on South Ann Street, pouring Italian and Old World bottles with cheese, charcuterie and panini.
TipPick a bottle off the retail shelf and drink it in for a small corkage; the patio runs in season.
Fadensonnen in Old Goucher is Lane Harlan's natural-wine, sake and beer garden in a converted carriage house, pouring skin-contact wines under string lights.
TipIt is part wine bar, part sake bar, part beer garden; the back patio is the place to be in summer.
Bodega & Vino in Locust Point is a small grocer, cafe and wine bar in one, pouring small-producer bottles by the glass alongside snacks and pantry goods.
TipIt works as a daytime cafe and grocer too, so you can shop the shelves and drink a glass at the counter.
Station North natural-wine bistro on Maryland Ave since 2018; chalkboard menu changes weekly, Bon Appetit Hot Ten 2019, named for a Lyon counter.
TipReservations open in batches and vanish fast; follow the bar's social feed for the drop.
Fadensonnen is a converted old goucher carriage house pouring natural wine, sake and beer in a string-lit back garden most visitors never find.
TipThe back patio is the place to be; it runs as part wine bar, part sake bar, part beer garden.
