Henry was such a total delight! We learned a lot about wines in various NorCal regions, enjoyed tasting a few different wines and truly they were all SOO good! Can't wait to go back and buy a few bottles to bring home with us. 10/10 recommend going asap!!!

Fabulous new wine bar near Jack London Square. Delicious, unique wines at a reasonable price. Fun atmosphere with comfy seating and board games. Plus you get a lovely complimentary snack plate with purchase. The owner is friendly and knowledgeable, highly recommend!

Henry is the owner and has the best wine bar experience in the world! You won't be disappointed in the selection of wine. He focuses on Californian wine from small batch artisan winemakers.

We've come here twice since it opened and have had a great time both times. The wine selection offers an excellent variety of high quality wines. We ended up taking home bottles of some of the wines we tasted.
The owner is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about wine, and does a masterful job of walking you through the all of the wines.
They also offer great specials on Wednesdays -- no corkage on bottles, and 1.5-glass carafes for the price of a single glass
This has quickly become a neighborhood staple. Amazing wine, amazing/kind/knowledgable folks running it. Henry is creating something wonderful in our little neighborhood and I couldn’t be more grateful. 10/10

This is possibly the best I’ve been treated in the Bay Area in my 3 years of living here. The owner has only been in business for five weeks, and completely exceeded our expectations. We came in here on a whim based on the ambiance we noticed walking past the location, but were overwhelmingly pleased with the service, the choice of wines, and the friendliness from our host (and owner) and the patrons. We received multiple splashes of wines that we absolutely loved and were treated like family and esteemed guests (and I noticed every single guest was treated the same). This place is definitely going to be a staple in Downtown Oakland, and I’m already contemplating when my friends and I will be back. SIX stars from me. Support local Oakland small businesses!
