We were here to check on a show that was playing in their back room. We got here early though and met up with friends, so we could enjoy the wine a bit and check it out. It really is a great spot. There was a good size crowd for a Thursday. We tried a couple wines, both were solid. the bartender was nice and the ambiance of the place was very welcoming. When it was about showtime we went in the back. Its a kooky room with a really high ceiling and accustic improving wall appliances. The show was fun; a DJ, a fella on bongos, and a gal came out and played cello to a couple songs too. Very glad we took a chance on driving down for this eclectic show. Harrison has alot of good spots that come and go, I hope this one sticks.

Out of our love for wine, we will try any wine bar here in South Florida or anywhere in the world…read more All are so unique. The Vintage has everything we love all wrapped in one place. 1. A great selection of wines. 2. A bar that focuses on tastings 3 A great selection of food items to enjoy while drinking your favorite wine, not just a few bar bites. 4. TVs for watching our favorite football games, one placed and centered at the back of the bar to easily see and one above where we are seated. The atmosphere is friendly and our server was very chill, allowing us to taste a couple of the wines we were interested in. All the wines by the glass or bottle were listed clearly on a chalk board. Great variety listed by grape and wine producer/name of the wine. We chose a light Carmanere although the other ones we talked we also good. Since my wife and I were both drinking the same wine we ordered a bottle. The prices of these wines are so reasonable, in fact never seen prices this low for comparable wines. You can also purchase wines off their display of wines in a separate wine room at 30-40 percent off the prices you drink them at in house if you purchase 3 wines to take home. Great variety there as well and offers wines from different wine regions around the world. Our food choices off the menu were Prosciutto Wrapped Dates, Artichokes and a beautiful Beef Carpaccio Plate. All were presented beautifully and paired well with our Carmanere. We did order clams but they were tiny and did not care for them. Friendly cozy bar. Not too big and conducive to meeting people. So we saw all our football games we wanted to watch , drank great wine paired with some great dishes. Yes , we purchased 3 bottles to take home after including the Carmanere we drank. Definitely coming back. This place is different.

The tasting was a great experience. Shout out to Rebecca. The bar area was full so we grabbed a table. It's a cute spot and has a bunch of plants on the ceiling. About a month ago I learned what Mead is and have been obsessed with trying it. Being able to ferment honey in to a wine like drink is fascinating to me. I knew we were coming down to the area for our anniversary trip. So I found this place in my search. Brewlihan and Rebecca did not disappoint. I started with the serum flight: raspberry lemonade, pear vanilla, black berry currant vanilla and strawberry watermelon. The first 2 were delicious. With my favorite being the pear vanilla. Then Rebecca started to bring me a few others to try. Nothing beat the pear vanilla. So we moved on to the full meads. So the difference is, the serums run about 5.8abv and the meads are about 12-15abv. I came home with 2 bottles of mead. The double pear vanilla and the catalyst. The double pear vanilla is self explanatory. However, the Catalyst is tangerine and pineapple age for 27 weeks in a Grand Marnier barrel. The taste is amazing. I would definitely comeback. We had a great time.

Summer are sweeter than others, but all are wonderfully designed and brewed. I will definitely be back.

The wine tasting experience was $25 and there is a courtesy purchase of 1 bottle. But the wines were so amazing, we ended up buying way more. In fact, I returned to the store just a week later to buy more bottles of champagne for a party I was hosting later that week. The area also has a huge free parking lot which is a big deal in Wilton.

First of all, the owners, Tim and Tracy, are so kind, helpful, and knowledgeable. They welcome all with open arms, will find you the perfect wine for your tastes, and just generally have awesome customer service. Next, the WINE! What a great selection of natural wine. So much variety! Unique styles, unique countries. If you're an expert, pick for yourself. We prefer telling Tim what we're looking for and letting him choose the perfect match. Finally, the ambiance. Hip and modern, but still comfortable. We've been a few times during slow hours, and their sweet dog will be curled up on the mid century modern couch. Besides wine, there are other wine related goodies for sale. It's worth it to note, as of 2024 they no longer sell wine by the glass or food, and have gone back to being more of just a shop. But you can go in and do a tasting of the 4 wines of the week. Other great options are their weekly tastings with experts to teach you about the wines, and the monthly food pairing event!

And if you are looking into being in the tasting area - get there with time to secure your spot! Shawn is always our favorite at the tasting area. His energy is everything! Our last server, Elon, was truly amazing and I will Forsure ask to be on his service again. Besides how we liked his personality and attention to detail, he was great at multitasking and making sure everything was going well with us and our orders, despite also attending to other tables. He truly made us feel special. Thank you Elon! Now, I've never had a bad experience with any of the food. Below will be my top picks for appetizers and entrees. Appetizers: 1. Drunken Shrimp - you can never go wrong! It comes with 6 bacon wrapped shrimp and the perfect amount of guacamole w/ each shrimp. 2. Chicken Potstickers - good comfort option. I also enjoy the Asian slaw it comes with. 3. Over the border egg rolls - good option to be shared as it is a lot of food for an appetizer. Entrees: 1. Pasta - Gnocchi Carbonara 2. Red wine braised short ribs 3. Blackened Ahi Tuna 4. Chicken Giardiniera We have so many memories in Cooper's hawk and can't wait to continue making some more with good company, great wine, and awesome food.

Like I mean in $80 plus a bottle and being told that the wine I'm tasting has a nose of blackberry with undertone hints of peach; none of which I have ever been able to truly discern. So it was a joy for me to stop by The Simple Wine shop where I was given the opportunity to try several not to be found elsewhere wines and also to purchase a couple of bottles for myself. The Simple Wine had wines I've never seen before and a few I've never even heard of previously. So, I became completely fascinated in trying these new flavors and tastes as well as some that were familiar. The selection of Italian wines was amazing as they mostly came from small craft vineyards as in the type that would only supply a few select restaurants, but because of their limited capacity, not something like the big box wine chains such as Total Wines. Having spent considerable time in in the smaller country like regions of Italy, I quickly learned that I never had to purchase a bottle of wine as any restaurant house wines were the equal if not superior to any I'd find in a retail bottle. The secret behind it was that these restaurants were supplied by the small craft like vineyards. So finding out that I can now obtain these regional Italian wines from smaller craft vineyards is a real delight and a big money saver too as most of his prices seemed to have run between $15 to $25 dollars.
