Our Story

Our Story

 

We are best friends. We are partners in crime. We love wine, food, and perfectly crafted cocktails. We have similar work ethics with different skill sets. We are passionate. We work hard. We laugh often. We drink a lot of wine. We love to travel and experience everything at least once. We build relationships—with our staff, our distributors, with winemakers, with you.

In 2003, we pioneered a different kind of wine shop—creating a space that you wanted to hang out in, providing you with incomparable customer service, and offering you a hand-picked selection of wine and spirits.

For us, it’s not just about buying a bottle of wine; it’s about the experience. Our shops are extensions of our own homes and the moments that you might have in them. We taste every bottle of wine that goes on our shelves and travel the world to find them. We earn your trust. We take the stories of the wines and give them a voice.

WHAT IS "BRIX"?

Developed by the German Chemist Adolf Brix, Brix is a measurement of the sugar content of grapes, must and wine, indicating the degree of the grapes' ripeness (meaning sugar level) at Harvest.
