Our story

Twenty years of pouring what we'd drink ourselves

Sean Malone built this shop into the kind of place people came to see him as much as the wine. When he couldn't run it anymore, two of his regulars — Brittany and Alan Alexander — bought it to keep his legacy pouring. Same shelves, same spirit, more than five hundred bottles chosen the slow way.

Bar & bistro

Small plates. Big opinions.

Flatbreads, cheese and charcuterie, dessert, wine by the glass and weekly-rotating flights — dinner Wednesday through Saturday, 4–9 pm. Thirty seats, so a reservation is a good idea.
