Love having this place in the neighborhood. They are so knowledgeable about wine, but in a really friendly and personable way. They also have really fun tastings pretty much every Saturday. The people watching on the patio is also fun.

Amazing people! They proactively helped me solve a problem yesterday. Excellent inventory including an active cellar. This biz is a can’t miss.

Fantastic wine store and bar. The staff is always friendly and knowledgeable. We always have a great time at their free Saturday tastings. Love pairing something from their wine list with their tinned seafood selection.
