<< Sit & Sip: The comfy decor of Lakewood’s new Times Ten Cellars feels more like a clubby living room than a reimagined East Dallas post office. Great art and music make it the perfect place to relax with one of Times Ten’s great grapes. Owners Rob Wilson, Kert Platner, and Chris Lawler select their fruit from California vineyards and craft wines from vine to bottle using grapes from their estate, Cathedral Mountain Vineyards, located in Alpine, Texas. Sophisticated yet unpretentious, the wine is food friendly but structured enough to impress most serious oenophile. Keep an eye out for Times Ten wines at your favorite Dallas hot spots, including Javier’s and Taste. 6324 Prospect Ave. 214-824-9463. www.timestencellars.com.
