Looks like Ferguson is getting in on the wine bar trend. Cork, a wine bar (the burg’s first such nightspot) owned by Mike Lonero, will soon set up shop at 423 S. Florissant Road. Lonero, who also owns Ferguson’s Vincenzo’s Italian Ristorante, said neighborhood oenophiles should expect 75 to 100 wines (a quarter of those by the glass), wine flights, 10 to 15 specialty beers, and wine-friendly small plates. Watch for the nonsmoking venue to be open by the end of the summer.
