How this list is chosen: Bars with a deep wine list, a Wine Spectator Restaurant Award or a natural-wine focus, listed alphabetically. Updated October 8, 2026.

  • Antolina

    A colonia Roma-adjacent address in Hipódromo that functions as a proper neighbourhood bar rather than a destination concept. Aguascalientes 232 draws a local crowd whose loyalty says more about the place than any award could. Part of the fabric of one of Mexico City's most residential drinking corridors.

  • Cicatriz

    Deep wine list

    On a corner in Colonia Juárez, Cicatriz operates behind wide-open black doors as one of Mexico City's more quietly influential wine-forward bars. The long bar, casual posture, and serious bottle list place it squarely in the neighbourhood's shift toward low-key spaces that reward curiosity over spectacle. Come for natural wine, stay for whatever the room turns into by the second glass.

  • Le Tachinomi Desu

    Deep wine list

    Le Tachinomi Desu occupies a quiet address in Cuauhtémoc, bringing Japan's standing-bar tradition to Mexico City's increasingly confident cocktail scene. The format is spare and deliberate: no reservations culture, no elaborate staging, just the counter and whatever is in the glass. Regulars return for the ritual as much as the drink.

  • Local 1

    Local 1 is a compact wine bar on Álvaro Obregón in Colonia Roma, conceived by a former architect and built around a small rotating gallery of artist work. The list leans toward wine, with mezcal appearing when the selection allows. It occupies a specific niche in Roma's drinking scene: intimate in scale, deliberate in curation, and unhurried in pace.

  • Loup Bar

    Deep wine list

    Loup Bar occupies a pre-revolutionary building on Tonalá in Roma Norte, where long corridors, timber floors, and high ceilings hung with European wine art set the frame for one of the neighbourhood's more considered wine programs. Ten taps anchor a format built around glass pours rather than bottles, placing it firmly in Roma's quieter, less theatrical end of the bar spectrum.

  • NIV

    NIV is a wine bar in Condesa that focuses on small producers, family projects, and terroir-driven labels from Mexico and beyond. The list reads as a quiet argument for wines made with intention over convenience, a format that sits outside the mainstream Mexico City drinking scene and closer to the specialist end of the bar spectrum.

  • Tierras de Uva

    A wine bar on Colonia Roma's Sinaloa street that keeps its selection firmly anchored in Spain, Tierras de Uva operates on a direct editorial principle: nothing goes on the list unless the people pouring it would drink it themselves. The result is a focused, honest selection that sits apart from the broader cocktail-forward bar scene developing across the neighbourhood.

  • Wine Bar by Concours Mondial de Bruxelles

    Deep wine list

    The first wine bar established by the Concours Mondial de Bruxelles outside its European competition circuit, this three-floor British and European-style house on Copenhague 23 in Colonia Juárez brings the competition's medal-winning wine program to Mexico City. The address sits close to Reforma Avenue, placing it at the intersection of the city's financial and cultural corridors. For a milestone dinner or a considered evening built around wine, it occupies a category of its own in the Juárez drinking scene.
