Nubar is a chic restaurant that combines a modern approach to classic dishes. Nubar's design is comfortable yet contemporary and rooted in architectural hints of Cambridge landmarks. Their eclectic wine list features French classics while offering exciting South American and California vintages. Your Ambassador will lead your first tasting in this trendy retreat for wine lovers and foodies alike.

Casablanca
Casablanca opened in 1955 and it has never looked back! Named for the classic film starring Ingrid Bergman and Humphrey Bogart, the bar soon became as legendary as the film, attracting writers, academics, politicians and local eccentrics and of course — wine lovers and wine drinkers. In fact, Casablanca remains Harvard Square's local hangout for writers, academics and politicians.

The wine tours focus on wine tasting, not food pairings. It is strongly recommended you come on a full stomach.  

Over the course of two hours, you will taste up to 6 different varietals. You will sample the equivalent of 2-4 glasses of wine.
