Concluding my wine and food discoveries in the wondrous world of Las Vegas, next time you are in that timeless town, check out the new Double Helix Wine Bar and Boutique in The Shoppes at the new Palazzo Hotel for an exciting, breakthrough experience. First thing you’ll see is the beautiful open, circular bar in the middle of the main intersection of this indoor mall. The plush fixtures and dramatic lighting form a backdrop for some 45 wine selections by the glass in either 2 oz. or 5 oz. servings.
Next door is the Double Helix Wine Boutique shop where customers can purchase the wines they liked at the bar, and a lot more of the greatest wines of the world.
Ray Nisi, a New York restaurateur, enthusiastically conceived this new dimension in wine service. He told me that “Double Helix was a carefully chosen name to reflect the positive and proven benefits of wine on human health, and hence, structural DNA.” The bar offers weekly wine tasting events and features different vineyards, sometimes with the winemaker present.
For a schedule next time you’re in Vegas, call 702-735-WINE.
