If youāre in TriBeCa, New York then make sure to stop by @chambers.nyc š· We absolutely loved visiting last year ahead of the Fine Wine Encounter, especially for their impeccably curated wine list by Master Sommelier @pascalinelepeltier , which features a myriad of natural and organic producers to up-and-coming names and long-standing legends alike.
