Sonoma Is Opening a New Bakery Wine Bar Hybrid in Sydney
The perfect place to break bread once you've made your day's dough.
Wine connoisseurs will know that, beneath all the fancy sommelier pairings and wine speak, the one true pairing for all wine is a hot loaf of sourdough bread. (And maybe a thick slab of brie. Mmm brie.) So you'll also be stoked to hear that the newest site for Sydney bakery Sonoma is also going to have a wine bar extension, where you may revel in your lust for wine and late-night sourdough.
Your new favourite place in the world is set to open next month in Rose Bay, on the corner of New South Head Road and Newcastle Street, but don't expect any pretentious bread sommelier business. Sonoma owner Andrew Connole told Good Food the vibe will be a casual wine bar, perfect for a little bread, wine and cheer. With shared dishes all centred around bread — and an enviable craft beer menu to boot — we're pretty sure after-work drinks at Sonoma will soon become the only reason you drag yourself to the office.
And it makes sense that sourdough and wine should come together in such a glorious way because, like wine, creating sourdough is a very complex process. In the motherland of sourdough, Sweden, there's even a roaring trade for sourdough hotels, where you can leave your sourdough in good hands while on vacation. Yeah, feel free to drop that little factoid at Friday afternoon bread drinks. You're welcome.
Via Good Food.
