Finding a good wine value is no easy task. Sifting through an epic list of names, years and prices can be daunting for even the savviest oenophile. Enter "Your Sommelier." We've teamed with renowned wine expert Kevin Zraly to sort through the wine lists at more than 100 New York restaurants to find the best bangs for your buck (watch the video above to hear more about the project). You can view Zraly's full list of recommendations here, but for a taste of what to expect, here are his picks for good-value wines at the five Most Popular restaurants in town. It's interesting to note that the top three restaurants have higher percentages of wines under $100 than others in that category, leading one to wonder if there's a correlation between popularity and good wine values.
