Wine Spectator Grand Award

We are thrilled and delighted to be honored with the Wine Spectator Grand Award!

This achievement is the culmination of a remarkable journey that began 27 years ago when we first opened our doors.

In those early days, our wine list featured a modest selection of just six wines. Our aspiration was to expand to twelve or perhaps sixteen offerings. Selling three bottles in a single evening meant a trip to Safeway for restocking. However, through hard work and dedication, tasting, learning, and a genuine passion for wine, we gradually transformed and built up our cellar.

Our commitment led us to achieve the Award of Excellence, followed by the Best of Award of Excellence in 2005. Since then, our collection has grown exponentially—from 1000 to 2000 and now over 3000 wines. It has been a great journey and a tremendous learning experience. We wanted to provide our customers a great dining experience and we built this wine list around what our customers were looking for.

Our wine journey has taken us around the world, exploring renowned wine regions such as Argentina, Chile, New Zealand, Champagne, Burgundy, Loire Valley, Piedmont, Bolgheri, Tuscany, and of course, much of California and Oregon. Along the way, we’ve had the privilege of meeting so many passionate people who share our love of wine and food.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of this extraordinary adventure. We look forward to continuing to provide exceptional wines and dining experiences.
