Cantine Isola
An 1896 enoteca on Via Paolo Sarpi opening hundreds of labels by the glass
Reviewed by Mes Prestiges Editorial Team Last reviewed June 2026
Founded in 1896, this standing-room historic wine bar on Chinatown's Via Paolo Sarpi is famed for the sheer number of bottles it opens daily, from artisanal Italian growers to grower Champagne. You drink at the counter among floor-to-ceiling bottles, with a few cured-meat and cheese plates. A living piece of Milanese wine culture.
