Dive bars are typically known for loud music and cheap drinks, with a dedicated vibe that remains unchanged over time. However, ordering wine in such places can be tricky. Former bar manager James Hastings recommends sticking to the house wines, which are likely to be the freshest offerings. While a dive may stock limited wine options, choosing the house ensures you're getting a bottle that is opened more frequently and less prone to storage issues, as wine doesn't move as fast in these establishments.
At a dive bar, sticking to the house wines ensures optimal freshness since these are the biggest sellers, likely opened more recently and kept in decent condition.
If youâre ordering wine at a dive, just ask for the house. They usually only have one red and one white, which are the safest choices.
