The first ever Philly Wine Week kicked off last night with a "Bubbles and Barrels" party at Ristorante Panorama and runs through this coming Sunday, March 30. With a slew of events going on each night, spread out over more than 20 venues throughout the city, it could get a little overwhelming. So we've mapped out the participating restaurants and bars and noted the events at each throughout the week, making it easy to pick a spot nearby and see if it's worth popping in, or to plot out a full-on circuit.
