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

Curated Holidays Set 2025
This is our favorite time of year! The shop is filled with fabulous, exquisite new wines, and chatting with our guests about your gift-giving and hearing about your holiday menus makes our job even more joyful.
Over Thanksgiving, our curated kit was a big success, and we had so much fun hearing all the different menus and traditions. So, we look forward to this holiday season having more menu challenges and hearing more food stories.
Here are some key ingredients you should not go without this holiday season:
FOR THE COOKING PORTION:
E.V. Olive Oil: Aromatic and fresh
Chateau Thebaud, Haute Fevrie, Folle Blanche: Dry, refreshing white to drink or cook with…or both!
WHEN GUESTS ARRIVE:
R. Dumont & Fils Grand, Brut, Champagne: The Brut Tradition is made up of 90% Pinot Noir and 10% Chardonnay. The warm temperatures and chalky, clay soils of Aube contribute to the creation of rich, indulgent wines with velvety textures. Although it is dry, this wine offers a lavish bouquet and palate with a smooth acidity.
FOR THE FEAST:
Knorhoek, Cabernet Sauvignon: Medium-Full Bodied – A robust profile featuring rich dark berry flavors, including blackberry and blackcurrant, supported by firm tannins, but well integrated. The subtle herbal and tobacco notes blend seamlessly with hints of mineral flint and leather.
