About Us
We believe in a comfortable place for wine novices and lovers
of all
kinds. Wine should never be intimidating.
We believe in finding the best quality wine for the price (Quality
Price Ratio) and being price competitive with other local wine stores.
We believe you should be your own wine expert. The best way to find and
buy your favorite wines is by
tasting them.
We believe that you should trust your taste more than wine critics
scores. Generally, we will not emphasize scores since they are just
somebody else’s opinion. We’re not in the business
of telling you what
you should like, we’re in the business of helping you
discover your own
personal taste.
We believe in small production wines that you cannot get at chain
stores. The vast majority of wine is industrially made but wines from
small producers are made with care and passion. These wines are far
more interesting and provide better value and memories.
We believe in exploring many styles of wine from all over the world. We
seek diversity in wine, thought and people.
We want to be a trusted source for discovering and purchasing
wine.

| Thursday Sept. 2 5:30 - 9 PM | Dragonette Cellars Winery Tasting Event At a recent wine show "The Stars of Santa Barbara" Dragonette Cellars stood out to us as offering some of the best wines from the area. They are young and new and making wine in their own way, organically and using a more natural approach. Winery partner Brandon Sparks-Gillis joins us as we taste their current releases of Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir, Syrah, MJM and Rose. Tasting wine like this makes us excited. Come and experience some exceptional wine. $17. Drop by anytime that evening. |
