This is a pretty nice lowkey wine spot in the Georgetown area. It was a little hard to find initially since it's on the inside of a hotel. The decor is eye catching as a bright neon sign welcomes you into the space with grassy walls and a few small tables inside, and outside more of the same in the patio area with heaters as well to accommodate the cold months. They have a wide variety of options domestic and abroad by the glass or bottle or you can even do flights with 2 half glasses or 4 full glasses for $15 or $25 respectively. I ended up trying out a couple glasses of their 2021 elio perrone moscato d'asti and the 2020 Xanudo chardonnay. The Chardonnay was my favorite of the two the taste was pretty complex but had a buttery and smooth finish and the moscato was solid not overly sweet. All in all this seems like a great venue to have a night cap or for a date night so I definitely recommend paying them a visit.

A great new addition to the area that was missing a wine bar establishment! It's in the lobby entrance of the hotel so don't be alarmed if you can't locate it from the street. They have some good options by the bottle but less by the glass. Didn't try any snacks while we were there but spotted plenty of cute seating and outdoor patio too.

Tucked away in the courtyard of a hotel lobby this wine garden offers a small oasis in the heart of a busy transit and traffic area. The atmosphere screams Insta-fodder but seating is relatively limited between the indoor and outdoor spaces. We were suggested a dry rosé that was overpriced compared to St Vincent but not horrendously priced when split. All in all I'd be fine coming back here but didn't find it particularly special or worth planning to return to on my own.

Friendly and intimate space in a hotel with friendly staff. They have a nice outdoor space, while the inside can get a little loud at times. The menu is short but unique; you'll find grapes and vineyards on here that you won't find elsewhere, but that can be both good and bad, so take it with a grain of salt.

I cannot recommend Bottles Wine Garden enough! This is a women-owned establishment with some very interesting, exquisite, and reasonably-priced wines. We tried an Australian white and a French Syrah blend that were some of the best that my friends and I (regular wine consumers) have tried in DC. Furthermore, the customer service at this place was incredible. Erika, our sommelier, was extremely knowledgeable and courteous, and Stephanie took such good care of us! The place is small but cozy, with a lovely garden for outdoor seating, the perfect environment for an intimate gathering with friends and loved ones. We tried several small plates and all were tasty - the fig and burrata flatbread and charcuterie were especially delicious. Will return for the customer service alone!

Tucked away in West End's Placemakr building is a women-led wine bar with over 40 bottles and a menu of wine by the glass in a well-decorated but casual setting. On a Thursday evening around 8 p.m., a friend and I ventured inside. You order at the bar and sit anywhere you like from the booths to outside to a long or short table. We sat along the window and enjoyed a conversation in the quiet space. We each got a New Zealand Sauvignon blanc and it was crispy and smooth. It was $16.50 per glass with gratuity already included. It's near the Foggy Bottom-GW Metro station with many other restaurants and bars nearby.

I hosted Galentines day at Bottles this past weekend and I can not even tell you how positive of an experience we had! We had the whole space for 3 hours with about 50-65 people attend. Not only did they let us hang up decorations for Galentines day, they let us choose the music, bring table decorations and have everyone order on their own tab. They were so accommodating, let us come and set up early, and the space was ADORABLE. I can not WAIT to come back for all future events ??❣️? thank you so much for letting us host our event here!

Great wine selection by the bottle with limited options by the glass. Great food and wonderful staff. Great setting, but the acoustics made conversations impossible.

Really enjoyed the space, wine and food were both good! I am essily disappointed but here, I will come back.
I can’t say enough good things about Bottles! The space, the staff, the wine program! I visited their patio over the past summer and enjoyed the large and beautifully appointed space both inside and out. I also just hosted a birthday gathering here and again, can’t say enough great things about how amazing they were with a large group. We had the best time! Even though we were outside on a chilly November night, they had plenty of heaters and large very upscale fire places to keep us all warm. And of course some excellent wine. Angie was so easy to work with to set up our reservation and once we arrived Steph and her bartending counterpart delivered charismatic and interesting guidance on wine selections. We all learned something new from them! At one point we ordered a bottle of champagne that was newly in stock and they went down to the cellar to retrieve it and then chilled it with a timer so it was the perfect temperature for us to enjoy. Everyone loved the chic interior, hidden away inside the Placemakr building. Our group also enjoyed several of the flatbreads and other snacks - they were delicious, and served to our hungry tables very quickly. It’s a lovely but welcoming place, clearly with much thought and passion behind it. We didn’t want to leave and are looking forward to our next visit!

It took us a minute to find this spot since it is located inside of the pacemakr building. We stopped in to have two rounds of drinks before heading to dinner. It was the insta-tini and a glass of white for my husband and two glasses of rose for me. This spot is really cute and the drink selection was good, if you are in the area check it out.

Nice atmosphere.Didn’t love the wine options, or maybe I just didn’t like the rose I ordered, but at least it has wine from all over the world.The food was adequate for the purposes, supporting the liver while indulging.You have to order at the bar and bring it back to your seat.I’d go back.
