Scarsdale

One Rare earned its Wine Spectator Award of Excellence and you can see why — the Italian-California combo is executed with genuine care, and the Barolo and Super Tuscan selections give the list some real teeth. Just know you're paying Westchester upscale prices for mostly Westchester upscale tastes, so point yourself toward the Italian half of the list and you'll leave satisfied.

Micheline is exactly what a neighborhood French bistro wine list should be — France-forward, fairly priced, and deep enough to reward the curious without intimidating the casual diner. If you're in Scarsdale and want a solid bottle of Burgundy with your moules, this is your spot.
