What: Subterranean hot spot that brings Napa to downtown San Francisco, with tasting bars from eight local wineries under one roof (the Four Seasons'), plus snacks in the form of cheese bites and other small plates.
The look: Industrial chic—concrete floors, walnut paneling, rough-hewn teak tables.
Who goes: The after-work crowd, and large groups—every pour goes on a single Press Pass tab, which is easy to split.
Sound track: Barely perceptible ambient house and trance.
What to wear: Smart casual—a well-tailored skirt or button-down shirt.
What to drink: The Mount Eden pinot noir; you won't find a public tasting room at its Saratoga winery.
Door policy: Like the city itself, staff accept all comers.
