Our new wine home! Bryan Franks is a guy you want to know. He has the perfect job in the perfect location! He hosts fun, caring, laughter filled, good feeling times...every day (that they are open)! We used to have our own wine home back in St. Charles, IL...4 doors down. We first went there as a patron and shortly became family! There is such a great feeling walking into a place that feels so comfortable and where people are open to conversations and chat about wine and their weeks. It's like being Norm at Cheers...if Norm loved a great cabernet or bordeaux! We walked in last Friday and snagged a bottle of Chateau Montelena cabernet, met Bryan, and had an amazing time getting to know him and the lay of the place! We met some really fun and funny people and made lots of new friends! The wine is great and Bryan offers much more like cheeses and crackers, snacks, and wine by the bottle or glass. He is so knowledgeable on the wines and has a flare for telling great stories. It was a perfect way to end our harried week and we cannot wait to go back again! We look forward to being a fixture of this fabulous place! You really gotta check it out! We hope to be there most Friday evenings! See...

Retail, buy a bottle, sip here and take the rest home or just order a glass. It’s my new fave...
Read more“Stumbled” into a wine bar in Carefree, AZ. Surprised by the great wine selection by the bottle. No corkage to open and drink on premise. Regular retail pricing, not restaurant pricing. Plenty to choose from if you want to order by the glass too. Selecting wine by the bottle can seem overwhelming but the owner was so knowledgeable, he helped me find the right wine at the right price point! I’ve been to several wine bars around the valley and this is the best one by far. ...
