Small wine bar with bottles to take home also. Friendly staff: much more approachable than other wine bars in the area.

Their sign says they should be open but they're not. I really wanted to shop local but now I have to drive to a big grocery store.

Cute wine spot, the selection of wines to sit and have by the glass was a bit underwhelming, but the wine was good. The interior is cute and could use some more sound buffering and decor. The Hippo is worth a stop in.

Top wine shop around for sure. The owner, Sorena is the bomb and if you’re lucky you’ll meet her dogs too

One of my most favorite spots to sip wine in the triangle. Fun, eclectic, vibrant and welcoming space. Sorena makes everyone feel at home, and she goes above and beyond with recommending wines that suit the mood and the budget...she even breaks out games to play while you're sipping!!

Was excited to try this new place, but unfortunately both of the wines we ordered, a white Albariño (for Albariño week) and a pet nat, were lackluster, so the selection wasn’t my favorite. The interior I think is still being worked on, which I completely understand. Hope to see improvements in the future!

Fantastic wine bar and bottle shop, great variety of delicious wines and a good selection of beers and seltzers, some snacks available. Service is wonderful and extremely knowledgeable about their product. The space is airy and welcoming - all around a top notch

Great vibe, love the hippo mascot! Service is quick, very reasonably priced by the glass and bottles for DTR.
