Terrific tasting experience as always. Got to try several new wines and purchased a few at a great price. The selection here is always changing but there's never a bad bottle on the shelf. Definitely make sure to check out the five for 50 selection as well. Sometimes I can't believe the quality of the wines offered at that price. If you come in and have a bottle here make sure and try some of the cheeses as well. Since they have a cheese club they always have new options and you get much better quality and unique options compared to what you find most places.

Terrific neighborhood place. Beautiful atmosphere and knowledgeable staff. They always welcome you warmly when you come in the door. They also recently hosted a very generous benefit for the EM5 Fly High Foundation and welcomed a much larger group of guests in the shop than anticipated. Adapted and provided great service. Go here for wine!
