About Us

"When you walk into wine-sense, you quickly discover that it's not your typical wine shop. And it doesn't want to be. For over ten years, Samanta Ettore, a native of Tuscany, and her staff have worked to give their customers a "sense" of how each bottle on the shelves can complement their lives. Through years of delivering wine education and traveling to vineyards around the world, the wine-sense team ensures that all customers - whether wine aficionados or people new to wine - leave with the right bottle. With additional culinary backgrounds, Samanta and her team can also ensure that your food and wine pairings are perfect for any occasion.

When visiting winemakers come to wine-sense and at times end up leaving with bottles, you know it's a special shop. Winemakers understand what it takes to bottle a dream and know that their wine will only speak the truth about their efforts, their grapes, their land, and their history. wine-sense brings that to you. It's not just about the wine; it's about the sense of the wine.

wine-sense is an award-winning wine purveyor with a continually changing inventory that embraces seasonality, small production and new discoveries in the world of wine. This makes every visit to wine-sense a special occasion. If you want a bottle of wine, any shop will do. If you want the sense of wine, then wine-sense is your place."

Class: February, Valentine's Day in Mind

The Champagne and Sparkling Wine class that was held on last year’s Valentine’s Day was a tremendous success and we have received requests to schedule it again.
This year’s class is scheduled for Wednesday, February 13, from 7 to 9.

Champagne has been the beverage of choice for celebration for hundreds of years. It represents luxury, success, and of memorable times spent with loved ones. At wine-sense we will present an updated presentation on Champagne and Sparkling Wine; what is the difference between the two; the history of how sparkling wine was discovered; how do the bubbles get in there; how Champagne helped save the world from tyranny, among many other stories about these exceptional wines. A variety of bubblies paired with hors d’oeuvres will be provided. You were probably going to spend that evening with sparkling wine anyway, so why not join us? 

Early Bird: $65 pp. signup by Feb 1st.
Regular Cost: $75.00 per person

Comments from last year’s class:
“Informative and fun.”
“It was fun, as it always is.”
