Upper East Side's Accademia di Vino to Close This Week

After four years in business, 3rd Avenue wine bar Accademia di Vino is calling it quits. An employee at the restaurant tells Eater that this Saturday, January 7 will be the last day, and that sister restaurants Trattoria De Vino and Cesca will remain open.

The Accademia di Vino space won't stay empty for long, though: another Italian restaurant is moving in. The new concept will be casual, perhaps something along the lines of Carmine's, but no word yet on who is involved with that project.
