In addition to serving a New American menu (think duck confit cassoulet and a coffee-rubbed Kurobuta pork chop), 1515 Restaurant offers an impressive selection of Colorado wines by the glass. The vinos include Sutcliffe Vineyards‘ Viognier, Woody Creek Cellars‘ Colorado Merlot, Guy Drew Vineyards’ Syrah, Denver’s own Infinite Monkey Theorem Gewurztraminer, and more.

Bonus: The downtown restaurant has a long history—nine years—of earning Wine Spectator‘s “Award of Excellence,” and it received the “Award of Distinction” by Wine Enthusiast from 2005 to 2009.
