What our neighbors say.

The staff took the time to understand what I like and sent me home with a bottle I never would have found on my own. Easily the best wine shop in Frederick.

Incredible bourbon selection and genuinely kind people. They tracked down a limited release for me and called the moment it arrived.

Their tastings are the highlight of our month. Welcoming, unpretentious, and always something new to discover.
