We like Bar Month, from an editorial perspective, because it makes us think outside the box (of wine?) for new drinking stories, whether they be trends, recipes, bartender profiles or features that we wouldn't normally write in the span of one tipsy month. And, of course, we announce all the "best of" bars winners, too.
