The Punchdown Bottle Shop + Wine Bar

Great wine shop with curated dry goods as well. Jackson gave us spot-on recommendations and was super knowledgeable and friendly. Have a tasting and joining their wine club!

They have exceptional customer service and care. I needed a bottle shipped and DC and the crew made the process incredibly convenient and efficient. I can’t recommend this place enough! They have an amazing selection of local and international natural wines. A true gem in the area!

It's so great to finally have a great spot to get tinned fish in the north bay. They wine is great too! Nice to see they are heavy on the natural wines and much less focus on the local commercial stuff.

Great, unique wines in a lovely atmosphere. Fabulous spot all around.

All hard surfaces and concrete floors, way too loud

Great wine selection. Chill vibes. Welcoming staff. So happy they have opened this second location in The Barlow!

Extremely tasteful, in every possible way. Natural wine focused, bottle shop and wine bar in Sebastopol. Very welcomed addition to the community and supports/stocks a lot of local, smaller, winemakers in Sonoma county I had never even heard of. From the moment you step in the décor feels welcoming and artisinal. Walls of wine create a canvas that would make even Matisse proud. The wine itself is like a mural of cultures - highlighting local producers in Sebastopol making avant-garde whites, to more non-traditional New Zealand umami-driven pinots, to Georgian funk fests. Punchdown imports it all and offers it here to share by the taste, glass and bottle. The key here is in the variety, yet the true life of Punchdown is in the unpretentious staff and afforable price points, allowing customers to indulge in such stimulating, global treats.

Another great addition to the Barlow in Sebastopol! The wine selection is very large and the wines by the glass change every week. The space is bright and airy with a large garage style door opened in front letting in lots of air. Two tables to sit outside and plenty more inside. All four wines I tasted were excellent. The people that work there are super friendly and knowledgeable about the wines. This place is great!

We love this place! Beautiful setting in the Barlow. They have an EXTENSIVE natural wine selection. DC & Lisa are so inviting and knowledgable about each bottle. Definitely a go to for the area. Very excited they are here.

Best place to be in the Barlow. DC, Lisa, and staff answer any questions about wine. Massive selection of natural wines to drink in a beautiful and inviting space. Run don’t walk, and then take it easy and unwind with a glass of something you haven’t tried yet. 6/5 stars.

I have been a fan of The Punchdown from my years living in Oakland and it is so exciting to see them in Sebastopol. DeeCee is not only knowledge about wine but also just a delight to chat with. Don’t miss a chance to have a beautiful glass of wine at this new spot!
