    Casual wine tasting bar with a nice selection of tapas! You can pick and choose your own wine+tapas sets or pick ones already curated

    If you can get past the sketchy alley location, this place is amazing! Great wines, meats, cheeses and condiments. Be sure to ask a lot of questions; the servers are wry knowledgeable.

    As an introduction to West Coast flavours this can't be beaten. Mix and match the B.C. platter; cheese, charcuterie and wine paired with house-made or locally-supplied condiments. [Eater 38 Member]

    While the atmosphere needs a bit of work, the cheese and wine were excellent. Just don't expect to satisfy your hunger here. Head down the road to Tacofino (Taco bar) afterwards for fantastic tacos.

    We were very impressed with how personalized the experience was. Even if you are not a blue cheese lover, try the blue cheese paired with honey- perfect complements!

    Rotating menu, but the local Chèvre w/ honey was to die for (consensus)

    Great variety in wine+meat selection. Remember it's a tasting room- don't expect a full meal here unless you have a really tiny stomach.

    Order the platter of the day - they will create a meat, bread and cheese platter for you. And then order a bottle of wine to start off your evening.
