Whether it's enjoying a flight of wines on one of our outdoor patios in either Manhattan or Hermosa Beach as the soft, warm wind of another epic beach day caresses your face or sampling wine inside at one of our two cozy tasting rooms, we're here to make sure your wine experience is a memorable one.
Our classic flight consists of four wines you choose from a list of eight- (typically 4 whites and 4 reds), although we may include sparkling wine or some other interesting choice (ie orange wine). Additionally, both shops offer a premium tasting, typically consisting of wines ranging in price from $50-$150.
At times, you can also order from an additional special tasting list, for instance, an all-bubbly list over the Valentine's Day weekend or wines being poured by a winemaker (see our events page here).
We look forward to seeing you. Cheers!

1. Domaine Serrigny Savigny-Les-Beaune

2. Tercero Cinsault
2020 Zaca Mesa Vineyard, Santa Barbara County
A bright, light versatile red, this lesser known Rhone variety has actually been grown in California for well over a hundred years. It is known for very large berries and is generally considered a blending grape. That said, it makes a fantastic red wine that is full of aromatic complexity and texture. $18/glass
3. Gro Cabernet Franc
2022 Frediani Vineyard, Calistoga, Napa Valley
Made from grapes produced from dry farmed vines. Aromas include bramble, wild blackberries, dark cherry and Santa Rosa plums along with soy sauce, root beer, coffee bean, rose petals and baker’s chocolate.

The finish lingers with a note of dried tobacco leaf, dust, smoked sage and finely polished and lightly gravelly textured tannins. $29/glass
