| In DC looking for something we haven't tried. All we want is good wine, great cheese and chacuterie boards in a nice quiet atmosphere. I think this rules out places like Proof. We have done Sonoma and a few others around town. Any obscure recs in DC? Was looking at Juniper bc of the pretty courtyard but reviews are mixed. TIA |

| We have also done LeDiplomate, which was fab but really loud. |

That is the perfect rec, Exactly what we're looking for but they're closed on Mondays. That's the other problem we're running in to. |

Rats. Right up until that part, I was going to say Proof. |

Wait a minute--Proof is not quiet enough, but Range is an improvement?
We liked Range, but it felt like eating in Grand Central. (Well, if Grand Central had a panoramic view of a Chevy Chase mall.) |

OPNever been to Range so I would not have known that detail. Menu looked ideal though. |

Thanks but were looking for DC recs. |

We were seated in the back room and it was extremely noisy -- it didn't help that we were right next to a table of 8 people. We asked to be re-seated and we were on the rim with the panoramic view of the mall and it was fine -- not quiet but not that loud either. So ask to sit with the view of the mall. |

Good call on Ripple. We've had a fabulous time there. Small and quiet, knowledgeable about wine.
Cork seems good on paper; haven't been there yet. Same for Vinoteca. |
