Azzurra Wine Bar opens Friday, June 7, 2024, bringing an exquisite array of wines to South Water Street in Henderson. Steps away from Azzurra Cucina Italiana, the sister wine bar is Henderson trailblazer and noted architect Windom Kimsey’s next culinary gem.
“My dream was to build the perfect home on Water Street, then an office, followed by a coffee shop and then the restaurant,” says Windom Kimsey, Owner of Azzurra Wine Bar in a statement. “And the wine bar was the next perfect addition to our neighborhood! We are thrilled to have a spot for folks to enjoy a delicious glass of wine or two for an evening out or as they wait for their dinner reservation at Azzurra.”
Crafted by General Manager, Samantha Remer, the Azzurra Wine Bar wine list features over 75 different wines by the bottle, with global fine wines from notable regions to enjoy in the space or take home. Favorites include: Barbaresco, Azienda Vitivinicola Piazzo Arge, Piedmont, IT 2018; Zinfandel Blend, Angels & Cowboys, Sonoma County, CA 2021; and Chablis, Domaine Testut, Vielles Vignes, FR 2022. Wines by the glass will range from $9-$28 with a rotating selection of guest favorites and new offerings.
Curated by Chef Alessandra Madeira of Azzurra Cucina Italiana, the wine bar’s food menu includes bite-size Chef’s Ale Famous Mini Meatballs, rotating cheese and charcuterie options, dips, and other small plates like Deep Fried Rice Balls and Garlic Truffle Fries.
Located on the south end of Water Street in Henderson, the wine bar shares the space with daytime coffeehouse Public Works Coffee Bar. Remodeled to add a new front and back bar, upgraded counters, and lighting, the intimate space is a cozy spot to unwind in the heart of Henderson. A retail and private events space will host monthly wine classes and activations. The interior seats 46 guests in the main room and retail space, and the outdoor patio can host 24 additional guests.
Azzurra Wine Bar will be open Monday-Thursday from 3-9pm, Friday 3-10pm, Saturday 12-10pm, and Sunday 12-9pm, with Happy Hour Monday-Wednesday 3-6pm.
