New restaurant concept Pinard Wine Bar is now open in North Scottsdale, offering a European style dining and wine drinking experience. The European-inspired menu features classic dishes like beef bourguignon and ratatouille, and shareables such as cheese plates and foie gras. The Pinard Wine Bar menu also includes rich and hearty entrees like a veal chop and several cuts of prime steaks.
Pinard Wine Bar in north Scottsdale offers a casual bar environment, a vibey dining area, and a private wine room with exclusive access for members of Pinard’s Wine Club. In true European fashion, the restaurant will offer a daily “aperitivo,” a pre-dinner Italian tradition that involves drinks and snacks to stimulate the appetite. During happy hour, small bites are complimentary and served with the purchase of a glass of wine or cocktail.
This isn’t Letty Ebel’s first foray into the hospitality world. The Pinard creator and owner’s family has opened multiple restaurants in the Valley and in the Midwest, including Two Brothers Brewing, Two Brothers Tap House, Two Brothers Roundhouse, and The Craftsman Cocktails & Kitchen. But this is personal for Pinard. Years spent traveling throughout Europe, and decades indulging in French and Italian wines and cuisine, led the Ebel family to concept and open Pinard. The name is slang for “red wine” in French.
“We offer varietals that you have likely never even tasted before, like Aglianico from Campania in southern Italy,” says owner Letty Ebel. “Our goal is to offer a place where everyone can relax and try new wines, enjoy delicious and authentic foods, and feel at home while doing it.”
Pinard offers more than 40 wines by the glass and over 200 wines by the bottle. The majority of wines offered are European, and the owners are proud to offer varietals that are not found at other Valley wine bars.
Pinard’s Wine Club gives members special access to tastings and events, discounts on wine purchases, and a private lounge area that is open every Thursday through Saturday night. More information about Wine Club memberships can be found on their website, and special wine tasting events will be regularly announced on Pinard’s Instagram account. Bookings are now open for holiday parties and private events for the 2024 holiday season.
Open Tues. through Sun. beginning at 3 p.m.
20469 N. Hayden Road, Scottsdale, AZ 85255
