The Number One Sommelier in Los Angeles is...

PIETER VERHEYDE: Bastide

Here you will find jaw-dropping, historic, and top notch wines that are often way out there and not easily found (including many Slovenian and Hungarian options). Having one of the largest and most diverse wine lists in LA, Verheyde loves to talk to you about the wine, he's very hands on, and often as fun and eccentric as the wines he serves. Formerly part of Alain Ducasse's team in New York and Monaco, we are eternally lucky and grateful to have this man's expertise brought forth to Los Angeles.
