“Whether you are an emerging wine lover or a seasoned expert, our venue is about discovery and exploration without the pretentiousness and ego. We want to challenge the status quo by offering rare and allocated wines by the glass to allow anyone the chance to try wines they otherwise wouldn't be able to reach, whether it’s Coche Dury or Roulot. It also provides the chance to have a glass rather than committing to the full bottle.”
- Xavier Vigier, Venue Manager and Head Sommelier
ABOUT US
Empowering the knowledge and access to the world of food and fine wine
Circl is Melbourne’s unparalleled destination to try some of the world’s best wines alongside a highly considered European-inspired food offering with a Scandinavian finesse.
Nestled within the iconic Melbourne laneway in a double story building with a unique facade transformed by MARCH.STUDIO, Circl creates a memorable culinary experience for all, boasting one of the city’s most impressive wine cellars and a warm and atmospheric interior.
Led by Venue Manager and award-winning Head Sommelier, Xavier Vigier, Circl seeks a wining and dining culture built on accessibility, inclusivity, and discovery. Central to this ethos is an extensive by-the-glass list of 150+ bottles, which provides rarely seen access to special bottles - not necessarily in relation to price, but anything from limited-edition wines to hard-to-get bottles that are normally only shared amongst a few within closed doors.
Circl is for the people, the people who want to immerse themselves into the universe of food and wine, in the confines of an elegant but humble setting, and with your family and friends.
