I love that we have a local family-owned wine store like this in North Oakland. Great wine selection and very friendly/helpful staff.

Hidden gem! There should be a giant sign at the sidewalk with an arrow saying “great wine this way!” I followed the recommendation of the person working there and got a delicious red blend that is no longer being produced. I’ll be back for a few more bottles soon :)
