WELCOME!
Hi there! Thank you for visiting wine-sense online. We hope to be as interactive, passionate, and knowledgeable on this website as we are in person.
Our approach is simple. We keep the seasons in mind and pair to the foods we’re cooking with at each time of year. OK, so we might be over-thinking a bit. But that’s why you love us!
If you’ve shopped in the store, you know our wines move fast and the selection changes often. So be sure to check back frequently for latest finds, our new obsessions, and recently allocated bottles. We’ll also share upcoming events and sales so, you can grab them while they’re in stock. – Samanta

Heirloom Tomato Dinner | Mucci Wines
Join me for an Heirloom Tomato Wine Dinner with James Mucci Wines at Bistro 5
Every time we gather for dinner with James Mucci, we always have a wonderful experience. It offers a chance to truly immerse ourselves in the world of wine and the passionate producers behind it. Combining that passion with Chef Vittorio’s vision and deep understanding of the culinary world creates a match made in heaven.
Fall is the season to shift our palates toward more complex textures and flavors, and trust me, it’s not just about “pumpkin spice.” It is, in fact, tomato season! Vittorio, James, and I have collaborated to create a menu that perfectly pairs heirloom tomatoes with captivating wines from Italy. Join us for dinner and engage all your senses. It’ll be fun!
Let’s have dinner, it’s been a while!
