Located in the historic district of Deep Ellum, at 2647 Main Street, Dallas, TX 75226 and sharing a stand-alone building with local favorite Merit Coffee, the new restaurant and bar features a carefully selected wine program as well as an approachable yet sophisticated food menu.

Sixty Vines’ genuine effort toward sustainability and love for Earth’s ingredients extends all the way to New Zealand, where the innovative restaurant’s mission caught the eye of two distinguished leaders in the wine industry – Kim and Erica Crawford.
As a sustainable-first restaurant, each Sixty Vines location has a 60-tap wine system that creates an eco-friendly approach to wine service and provides the closest “from the barrel” tasting experience in hospitality. Keg wine, the base of Sixty Vines’ tap program, results in less packaging and less waste for the environment, as one keg holds 26 wine bottles and 1,500 over its refillable lifetime.

Last evening a small group of us were on the hunt for a crazy good cocktail. Seems like a fairly simple task since there are so many good cocktail programs sprouting up across the city, but we were wanting something a little different last night and we would know what it was when we tasted it. We made our way from saloon to pub until we settled onto one of the comfy stools at Nova.
