In October 2014, I spent a month in Singapore, visiting my daughter, son-in-law and granddaughter Viatrix. During these 4 weeks, I explored with my wife Annette Schiller the wine scene of Singapore, including the wine bar scene. During my 30 years career at the IMF, I visited Singapore from time to time and knew my way around, when I came to Singapore this time.
I have already released a number of postings about wine and food in Singapore based on my visit in October 2014. This posting summarizes my impressions with regard to German wine. The exchange rate at the time of my visit: S$1 = US$0.8.
Singapore and Wine
Singapore - known as The Little Red Dot - covers just 700 square km and has a population of a bit more than 5 million people. It is a very expensive city (and became the most expensive city in 2014 according to the Economist) and also a popular tourist destination; on average every day, there are 36,000 additional people on the island.
According to the International Enterprise Singapore, a government agency, six countries account for more than 80% of import volume into Singapore. Australia and France are at the top with 31% and 26% of volume share, respectively, followed by Chile (9%), Italy (7%), US (6%) and New Zealand (6%). Spain, South Africa, Argentina and Germany each have approximately 3%.
Who’s buying? With US 55.000, Singapore has a higher per capita income than Germany and the US, for example.

On the supply side, the number of importers has mushroomed in recent years. Berry Brothers and Rudd moved into Asia in 1998, establishing offices in Hong Kong, Shanghai and Japan, is now also present in Singapore. Berry Brothers and Rudd predicts that its Asia businesses will account for half its global sales in five years’ time, up from 15% currently.
thedrinksbusiness.com: Not so long ago finding a good quality wine bar in Singapore might have been a hard task, but not anymore. While it may not produce any of its own wines, Singapore is home to a passionate wine community and thriving fine wine market. Over the last three years the popularity of wine bars has grown with many former retail shops converting into licensed outlets. From fine wine bars to humble street bars, today the wine connoisseur in Singapore has a variety of specialist wine outlets to explore – assuming it benefits from an in-house sommelier. Many offer wine by glass – which could be the key to their success – allowing consumers to sample expensive wines without having to stump up the cost of a bottle.
Orchard Road and Beyond
Taberna Wine Academy
A very special wine bar, off the beaten track. No wines by the glass, no food, but an extraordinary wine list, including a sensational selection of German wines. The wine bar is owned and run by, Tan Ying Hsien, who is enrolled (and pretty advanced as far as I know) in the Master of Wine program.
I was in particular impressed by the extensive availability of wine verticals (wines from the same producer and vineyard with differing vintages), including from Reichsgraf von Kesselstatt with a dozen wine verticals dating back as far as 1983.

Thewanderingpalate.com: PS, this is the Wandering Palate’s favourite wine bar in Singapore, away from all the boozing crowds on the Quay’s and pedestrian bar strips, this is a very civilised and cosy wine bar tucked away in Binjai Park (off Dunearn Road). The wine list is extraordinary – a very personal (cellar) selection with some of the world’s greatest producers, at the same time always same amazing discoveries and bargains that Ying has unearthed – One frequently hears that the Singapore wine consumer is purely obsessed with super-fine wine and yet whenever I am at Taberna, I always see the patrons enjoying modest and obscure wines from all over the world – thanks to Ying’s ever-inquisitive palate.

Caveau Wine Bar
Lovely wine bar with an excellent and large selection of Bourgogne and Bordeaux wines. Enomatic machine. Chateau Pontet-Canet & Tesseron Cognac owner Melanie Tesseron was here for a tasting earlier this year.

Picture: Wine BOS

Not a wine bar, but an iconic place.
Picture: Christian G.E. Schiller at Long Bar in the Afternoon
Yoursingapore.com: The birthplace of the Singapore Sling, the Long Bar at Raffles Hotel is a step into nostalgia, housed in colonial architecture.

With the light jazz playing on the background, you can chill out and really enjoy a conversation and if you order some wine, you'll be amazed by some flying angels' stunt as they scour through the racks for wines.
Paulaner
Not a wine bar, but an authentic German beer tavern.
Picture: Paulaner
Yoursingapore.com: A little slice of Bavaria can be found right next to Suntec Convention Centre in downtown Singapore. From its costumed staff and pork knuckles, to its beer brewed specially in-house, Paulaner Brauhaus gives you an authentic Bavarian dining experience. The restaurant offers traditional Munich dishes, like wiener schnitzel and brotzeibrettl, as well as other international staples. In keeping with the authentic Bavarian way, the big meals are even served in cast iron and wooden pans. A meal at Paulaner Brauhaus wouldn’t be complete with a tour of its very own house brewery, where you can learn exactly how the famous beers are made.

Very reasonably priced wine and food lists. Always packed. There are 5 Wine Connection bars, including one focusing on cheese.

CityNomadas.com: Wine Connection is an obvious choice but nonetheless deserves a spot on this list. It’s affordable, easy and the place is huuuuge. Wine prices start as low as $7 per glass at every hour.. not just happy hour. Wines by the bottle boast some of the lowest prices in town, starting at $25. If you’re a big cheese junkie, then scoot next door to their cheese bar for some delicious and affordable cheese, and of course yet more good wine.
11 Unity Street, #01-19/20, Robertson Walk
eM by the River
Not a wine bar, but a very charming bar by the Singapore River.
Picture: eM
citynomads.com: Not really a wine bar but we think eM deserves a mention for its happy hour promotion, from 5-9pm daily, offering $9 red and white wines and not to mention a great, secluded view of the river. This is perfect for date night or just having a quiet drink somewhere a little more chilled.

Fatien - Bar a Vin
urbanjourney.com: When it comes to great food and wine, you can’t go wrong with classic French bistro fare, which is why we were excited to visit the new-ish Fatien Bar a Vin in Robertson Quay. As we discovered, this charming 30-seater restaurant not only offers a relaxed and unassuming atmosphere, but it also offers fab food and wine at stellar prices.
Picture: Annette Schiller at the Fatien Wine Bar with the new General Manager
Newly opened in December by wine importer Jimmy Lopez, Fatien Bar a Vin is the more casual and cozy sister to La Masion Fatien of Duxton Hill. Although the place is small, the atmosphere is friendly and inviting. When we arrived, there were only a few tables dining and drinking, which made it easy to find a place to settle in and let the conversation flow.
60 Robertson Quay
Marina Bay
KudeTa

206 Telok Ayer Street
O'Batignolles Wine Bar & French Bistrot
One of my favorites. Perched on the corner of Club Street, this French wine bar serves a large range of French imported wines from $7 per glass and from $37 by the bottle. You do not find the high-priced ultra-premium wines that you find in many other Singapore wine bars, but an outstanding selection of reasonably priced good French wines.
Picture: O'Batignolles Wine Bar & French Bistrot
Ladyironchef.com: The French have a saying, ‘Life is too short to drink bad wine’. Believing in enjoying wine (without hefty price tags), French owner Antoine Rouland travels back to France three times each year to visit winemakers and vineyards, selecting wines from smaller producers.
Here, you’ll find vintages such as the Medoc 2001 Chasse Spleen at only $97 per bottle—a rare find in Singapore. Apart from a specially curated list of 100 wines on rotation (with 75 varieties available at any time), varieties of cheese are also available for pairing.
2 Gemmill Lane
Drinks & Co.
A retail shop with limited seating. Fun place. Always very crowded. Guests stand on the street.
Picture: Drinks and Co
Citynomads.com: A new drinks concept has rocked up and gathered in the Club St business for its own. As a retail shop with limited seating, Drinks & Co sell wines by the bottle from as low as $16 and $10 by the glass. Bottles of spirits are also available for as low as $45. It’s home to bit of a banking crowd, and will be more of a brawl than having a chilled bottle of wine, but we can’t knock them for bringing the cheaper drinking experience to Club St.
44 Club St
Le Carillon de L'Angelus
USA Today 10 best: Get far from the madding crowds of Clarke Quay at this laidback little French bar on Ann Siang Hill, where traditional Chinese businesses and fancy new restaurants sit cheek-by-jowl in restored shophouses. With its distinct bistro feel — think French movie posters and lots of dark wood — you almost can't help but don a faux-French accent and ask the garçon for some of the escargots delicieux. Downstairs, there's even more of a homey feel with a pool table the center of attraction. A branch with river views recently opened at 41, Robertson Quay.
24 Ann Siang Rd
Beaujolais Wine Bar
Thedrinksbusiness.com: The Beaujolais Wine Bar was founded in 1988 and was designed with the aim of offering a wine and dine experience that was both familiar and homely.

Vida Vino
Ladyironchef.com: A fairly new entrant to the winery scene, Vida Vino (translating into “the wine life”) is about making merry without your wallet having to suffer. With a personal selection of 60 wines (by owner Aaron Olivera) that start from $12 per glass, this wine bar stands to give competitors a run for their money.
The Beronia ($85 per bottle) is such—opening with subtle notes of flowers and fruit before blossoming into a refreshingly crisp and spicy finish, this wine pairs extremely well with the iberico ham platter ($23)—a range of Joselito iberico ham (the best in Spain). As for sipping cocktails, Vida Vino has done an exceptional job in crafting some pretty smooth-drinking concoctions. From Spain with Love ($18) consists of “secret ingredients” that results in an edgy, bittersweet cocktail—we managed to make out notes of Spanish white wine and raspberry brandy.
29 Keong Saik Road

Opposite to Vida Vino. Very lively. 2 locations.

Praelum Wine Bistro
