Who are we?
Vinous Reverie is THE wine shop for the adventurous wine drinker. My name is Igor and I am the owner and founder. I quit my corporate job to open a wine shop that features a unique, critically acclaimed, and adventurous collection of wines from around the world. While my shop has many classic wines (there are Napa Cabernets, Bordeaux, and Burgundies), its true gems are to be found among its many international selections. I have a variety of highly rated Rieslings - German, Alsatian, and Australian. Thereās also an eclectic selection of Indigenous Italian varieties as well as sparkling wines from unusual places like Sicily, Pfalz and Tasmania. My store offers a highly curated experience with unique and acclaimed wines at very competitive price points. I have critic reviews noted and my website is set up to make wine shopping easy and less confusing. Iām pleased to say that many local sommeliers shop at my store ā if you want to expand your wine palate, I think my shop is ideal for that.
