Time for Wine

«Time for Wine» is a wine bar and café on Bolshaya Pokrovskaya, 8/8, near Gorkovskaya metro station, in the very heart of Nizhny Novgorod. It offers a fusion menu paired with a wine list, and the average check per person is about 2,000 rubles. The place is defined not only by its food but also by its wine culture. It regularly hosts themed tastings with sommeliers, where guests learn about Riesling, sparkling wines, and common myths about wine. The sessions are led by professional sommeliers Ekaterina Smychyok and Alexey Lubenkov. A separate line of events is cheese-and-wine pairing tastings, led by cheesemakers Zhanna Zykova and Fyodor Chikhalin. And for those who want to spend the evening creatively, the bar hosts Drink and Draw art meetups, combining a glass of wine with drawing. All events take place right at the bar and bring together people who want to learn more about wine in an informal setting.
