Wine and Technology Converge at Clo

Want to go to a really, really cool wine bar? Try Clo in Manhattan. There's an article on the new-ish NYC wine spot on MSNBC's website today, but that's only the first reason why you should stand up and take notice. For me, it strikes a nearly perfect blend of traditional, sommelier knowledge (the bar was started, after all, by well-known oenophile Andrew Bradbury) and new age digital technology that's become so commonplace with the advent of BlackBerrys and the iPhone.

I won't go into too much detail, since you can get the rundown from the MSNBC piece. But, I will say that it involves an awesome selection of wines by the bottle or the glass. Clo has also turned their bar into a digital touch screen, allowing you to scroll through their catalogue, look at pictures and even read about the characteristics of each varietal. If you love wine and you live in New York, this is a must-see destination.
