Trimani Wine Bar

Frommer's Review

Opened as a tasting center for French and Italian wines, spumantis, and liqueurs, this is an elegant wine bar with a stylish but informal decor and comfortable seating. More than 30 wines are available by the glass. To accompany them, you can choose from a bistro-style menu, with dishes such as salad niçoise, vegetarian pastas, herb-laden fagiole (bean soup), quiche, and Hungarian goulash. Also available is a wider menu, including meat and fish courses. The specialty is the large choice of little bruschette with cheese and prosciutto -- the chef orders every kind of prosciutti and cheese, from all over Italy. The dessert specialty is Verduzzo di Ronco di Viere (chestnut mousse served with a sauce of white wine), covered by whipped cream and meringue.

Trimani maintains a well-stocked Italian wine shop about 37m (120 ft.) from its wine bar, at V. Goito 20 (tel. 06-4469661), where an astonishing array of wines is for sale. The shop is open Monday to Friday 8:30am to 1:30pm and 3:30 to 8pm.
