Chatting with Tria co-owner Jonathan Myerow over the years, we've learned one thing: He's very, very good at controlling his message, despite our best nosy-blogger-type efforts to glean the deets on his latest/greatest project. So here's what we've gathered so far on his recently announced wine bar, set for the space that was the Intermezzo Café, in the Left Bank building at 3131 Walnut.

"The space was too small for a Tria, but we really liked it," explains Myerow, who right now has two Tria locations, and has come close to opening a third. "It'll be a wine bar, very streamlined ... the prices will be very reasonable for the wine. There'll be some beers, but we're calling it a wine bar. There'll be a few cheeses, too." There'll be food via a "small but always changing" menu.

Is there a ballpark-ish opening month set yet? "We're looking at the summer." Does this place have a name? "Not really."

MYEROW! He's too good, y'all.
