One of the best authorities on the subject in the area. Great service & plenty of wines to try. Very knowledgeable owner & staff & they seem to be on a mission to educate. Recommended.

My mom and I have been coming here since day one, and it's honestly become the heart of our weekly routine. Over the years, I've watched this place grow into something special, not just because of the excellent wine selection, but because of the genuine community that's formed here. The staff knows everyone by name, and you can feel how much they care about creating a welcoming space. We joke that this is our "Cheers." You see familiar faces every week, celebrate life's big moments together, and share stories over great wine. From engagement announcements to baby showers to casual PTA planning sessions, this place has become the backdrop for so many meaningful moments. It's rare to find somewhere that consistently brings people together like this. If you're in the area and looking for more than just a good glass of wine, this is worth your time!!

EXCELLENT SERVICE BY IAN EXCELLENT WINES GREAT WINE VIBE My wife and I dropped by for a glass of wine in MAY of 2025. The bar has a very nice selection of wines, so I am sure you can find something that pleases your palate. The bartender, Ian, was great helping us find what we would like to taste. Came up with some very good suggestions. And you taste this wine before you buy a glass. The bar has several seating areas - big couches with a center table, so you can sit relaxed and enjoy your wine. We chose to sit at the bar. Overall an exceptional experience. Definitely a place to visit and revisit.

This wine bar is a very tucked away, hidden gem. It has a wonderfully interesting selection of wines. I did some exploring while there and found some options that intrigued me. Though I didn't get any pictures, they have a ton of couches. Seems like a perfect place to bring a book, curl up on a couch, and spend the afternoon. I also talked to some regulars as well, and they all were very welcoming. I really enjoyed my time there and will be back.

Where to start.... Im normally not a regular when it comes to winery's or any place for that matter but man I come her roughly 4x a week and not only because of the wine but also because of the people!! Everyone here are just the most amazing people! The workers and customers! They are extremely knowledgeable, they know how to cater your pallet if you have a specific taste or want to try something new! It's very home like, you can enjoy sports(NFL ticket), open mic, trivia, and more!!! Love this place!
