Wine Lovers at Harvest Wine Bar & Restaurant in New Haven
I don’t do a lot of reports on restaurants I’ve frequented in New Haven because not everyone who reads our blogs will be able to come to New Haven to enjoy the experience. But if you ever come to New Haven – don’t forget that we have Yale in the heart of the city – you’ll want to consider the Harvest Wine Bar.
The location is superb- right between the British Art Gallery (the largest gallery dedicated to British art outside of Great Britain) and the Yale Repertory Theatre. An added bonus is the sunken terrace where in decent weather you can dine under the stars- or the blue sky, depending on the time of the day.
But what good is a restaurant with atmosphere that doesn’t deliver on the food ? Harvest Wine Bar will give you a great dining experience from all perspectives. Our local wine club, Wine Lovers of Connecticut, hosted a wine dinner jointly with Harry’s Wine Shop and VIAS Imports. Harry’s in Fairfield has a wonderful selection of wines with a very knowledgeable staff; and VIAS probably has the finest Italian wine portfolio of any importer.
Here’s the menu with my comments on the wine pairing:
