2 / Savor Music and Wine at Only the Wild Ones
Like the raw crackle of a record, a great wine carries an ineffable quality tied to a specific time and place. For Heather Tierney and Sarah Meyer Simon, the creative force behind the new South Congress wine garden Only the Wild Ones, the bar straddles the intersection of those two worlds. The space leans on low-intervention methods in both the cellar and the DJ booth, allowing the wine and music to stand on their own. Discover the new wine garden and listening bar when it opens to the public this Friday, and read more about the space in our exclusive look here. Opens May 1, 1600 S. Congress Ave.
