Quirky place where they pride themselves on the quality of their wines and the nerdiness of their pairings. If you are a superfan of a book or show, see if they have done a pairing for you, or suggest it for the future. Going in is a great way to experience wine in a completely new way, nerd out about your favourite characters, and get tispys while doing it!

went in once, had to become members. So charming to go in, have a taster of really complex and interesting wine, chat with the knowledgeable staff -- with a good dose of quirk and woo to boot. A pitch-perfect Portland thing to do.

A really lovely place to find, sip, and savor new wines. Had the most relaxing and non rushed tasting experience based on the wine club picks of the month with a special substitution from the Barbie themed flight.Great wines, attentive and welcoming service, and perfect space for a good hang. We sat outside for the afternoon and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

This place is excellent! Fun, creative, delicious wines - and a fantastic selection - with personable staff. I tried the zodiac pairing and it hit the spot! Another wine matched to my request was perfect. I'll definitely be here a lot! Thank you, Pairings!!

Wonderful afternoon getting bouttineire of the rain and immersing in Jeff's approach to wine. All organic and non-corporate. We had glasses from the This is Us pairing flights. Don't miss this unique wine spot. PS They deliver

I have been to wine shops all over the US and Megan is simply greatest energy you can experience in a wine shop. We have met beautiful humans [Tiffany] over tastings and have learned so much while simply enjoying the joys of drinking wine. The love, the care, and personalities are all 10/10 recommend. Whoever enters this space is absolutely in for a treat!

A great place to think and learn about wine in different ways. The selection is varied and broad enough to never get stale, and the staff are friendly and passionate about wine. I always feel welcomed, valued, and challenged—and never rushed—when I visit. Definitely a favorite place for me.

This place blew my mind!!!!!!!!!! It's listed as one of the most "Portland" things to do so I knew this would be something weird and awesome and it didn't disappoint. I've never been to a place where they pair wine with things other than food - personality traits, zodiac signs, moods and looks like even TV shows and movies. It's a small cute cozy place with some lovely decorations around with colorful tables and chairs. Perfect for a date! I wouldn't suggest larger groups because there might not be enough space. The day I went, there was a wine flight for the TV show Wednesday and one for Badass women of TV and movies. The wines there are epic! I've never had those wines ever before anywhere and I ended up buying a bottle because it was so good. The gentlemen who served us was also very sweet and explained everything with patience and interest. There is not much food for vegetarians but he was nice enough to make a charcuterie board of all the available veg options including a pickle and some almonds and olives. I absolutely loved this place for so many reasons and I will definitely be going back here to try other pairings. It's such a fun thing to do in Portland!

This was such a fun place to go wine tasting! I came here with some friends and we all did the movie themed flight in addition to the fancy pants flight. I love the concept of pairing wine with different interesting things, this week's theme was Christmas movies. The staff are very knowledgeable about the wine while making the entire experience fun and enjoyable. The decorations here are eclectic and unpretentious. Their wines for sale are categorized by price and fun categories such as blue collar, fancy pants etc. I saw they have orange wine here too. I tried several wines on the flights that I've never heard of and really enjoyed everything. There were mainly beer drinkers in our group but they enjoyed the wines as well, so it really says a lot about the thought that goes into picking the wines. My favorite part about the tastings was they had a mystery fancy pants wine where we would taste them and afterwards the label and info about the wine was revealed. They have snacks like olives, cheese and crackers here but we made this our perfect place for drinks before dinner. I'll definitely be back when I'm in town again!

On a road trip from Southern California to Vancouver B.C. this was one of our most memorable stops. Jeff was a hoot, he helped us pick four bottles as gifts for friends. He made the wine "selecting process" so much fun, and when we gifted our bottles we got to share the cheeky story how we chose them. I can't wait to visit again :)

Love this funky little wine shop's tastings, club selections and themed dinners. Jeff has curated a great selection of unique wines from all over the world, and has a very eclectic method of pairing to not just food, but movies, TV shows, moods, numbers and more. Definitely a fun experience in an industry that can at times feel stuffy.

Jeff and team make wine and food fun!Clever, knowledgeable, and welcoming. Great place to bring guests.The Ratatouille dinner was superb, what an honor and treat to have such a special meal paired with special wines, and meet great folks in Jeff’s lovely home. Hope he’ll adopt me :)

Here for it! This is such a fun place and the owner is down to earth and easy to talk to. The other person working...Amanda? She was also really knowledgeable, willing to talk to us in length about varietals, but is now at a winery. We are going to have to go visit her at her new place. At any rate, I highly recommend tasing here, as Jeff is very knowledgeable. It's a great place to try international wines (something I have trouble with and know very little about ) and see what you like before you buy it. To my surprise I liked 4 of the 6 on the tasting menu which is a record for me! I liked more on this international tasting menu then I've ever liked at any vineyard I've visited! I will definitely be back to try more.

Amazing selection and good vibes ~ I always walk out with a new favorite bottle of wine. The staff is also super helpful if you're not sure what you want. (: Lovely little wine shop.
