Wine By The Bay is a hidden gem and the best of the best wine shop. The proprietor has incredible passion, knowledge, and expertise, offering fantastic conversation and wonderful recommendations. The shop specializes in rare Old World wines and has a ridiculous collection of aged champagnes and fine wines that are not overly common on shelves, including rare vintages you couldn't find anywhere else. The selection is top notch, featuring an incredible palate for wine in every bottle. It is a great local tasting community with frequent, superb events and tastings that are a night to remember. For anyone looking for some really special fine wine and an expert to guide selections, it is a spectacular experience and doesn't get any better.
Came here to see Stephano and bought three bottles; very much impressed. He is very well educated on wine, listened to our goals, provided the taste and alcohol content. Our expectations were exquisitely met. This is now my wine guy.
