| - We stopped in here after dinner to have a glass of wine before heading home. We had read that they served natural wines and were interested to see what kind of a selection they had.
It was really quiet on a Saturday night around 10:30pm- two other couples were seated at the bar. But, it's a good thing, because it's a small bar :) None of the small tables were occupied, so I think we were the only 6 patrons.
I wish I could recall our bartender's name, but he was great. He was knowledgeable and clearly passionate about wine in general and also about the natural wines this location sourced. They only purchase wines with less than 80g of sulfites, which can be pretty hard to find in french wines. We tasted a very nice Bordeaux (Chateau Grenet), which was a blend of malbec, cab, and merlot. I enjoyed it quite a bit, and appreciated his recommendation based on what we told him we were in the mood for. It was about $25 CAD for the 2 glasses, which I thought was reasonable for a more upscale experience. My husband really enjoyed geeking out about wine production and winemaking with the bartender :)
We didn't have any food, but it looks good, and there's a cute outside area that you can sit in when it's not too cool.
