Testimonials

On 7/28/2025 Lori Libby had this to say:
Great atmosphere, I love going there sometimes to just escape the day. The owners are so friendly and knowledgeable about so many aspects of the whole experience and I have learned so much about wines and have grown in my appreciation of the selections. They also have bourbon, and some varieties of beer as well. There is a beautiful selection of glassware and gift items, in a very uniquely designed and cozy atmosphere. Sometimes, in the winter you can enjoy. Your wine or beverage of choice by the fireplace, and in the summertime, there's a nice patio, that is very cozy. Patrick has hosted many events and The Port wine tasting was very interesting and I learned they are very different. These opportunities have allowed me broaden my experiences. They have had music entertainment on the weekends, as well as a wonderful selection of foods that go along with the wines. It has been a great place to meet interesting people, and there have been people from all over who have visited. It is really a unique experience. Unlike any other and I highly recommend anyone passing through Pontiac should stop and check it out. Testimonial written by Lori Libby on this site.

Live music on Saturday nights are fun. Wine club is a great deal and wines are well-selected and very good. Charcuterie, flatbreads, and small plates are excellent. We visit regularly and enjoy the comfortable environment.
