Come check out the latest art work on our walls by an incredible local artist and friend: Jesse Holt

The Interface Series reclaims the fragments of our digital past. By assembling recycled keyboard keys into vivid, re-imagined mosaics of cultural icons and historic landmarks, Jesse explores the intersection of human identity and the machines we use to define it. By turning the ‘noise’ of old hardware into a striking visual dialogue about how we recognize and remember in a hyper-connected society and evolving world. It is a series that transforms the ‘input’ of yesterday into the art of today.

Jesse Holt was born into the kinetic energy of Brooklyn, New York, and raised with an independent spirit. His perspective on art was shaped by a life in motion. Life has taken him from the rhythmic urban jungle of NYC, to the rugged coastlines of New England and the lush, tropical landscapes of Hawaii—a migration that instilled a deep appreciation for the tension between diverse environments and contrasting artistic impressions.

He formalized his artistic instincts at the University of Hawaii, earning a Fine Arts degree in Graphic Design. Drawn by the pulse of the design industry, he later returned to New York City to sharpen his craft and build a professional foundation at the intersection of fine and visual arts.

Following a pivotal chapter in California, Jesse now calls West Seattle home. He continues to bridge his rich personal history with a modern, collaborative approach, creating visual storytelling that is as diverse as the landscapes and influences that shaped him.

Exploring Spain This Wednesday (5/13/26)

Franck from Vehrs joins us Wednesday (5/13/26) with five Spanish wines made for long tables, good food, and evenings that refuse to end early.

Exploring Spain

There is a certain kind of Spanish evening we are very fond of: the first cold glass while the light is still warm, something pink and bright as the room begins to fill, then reds that grow deeper as the plates get richer and the conversation gets better.

This Wednesday, May 13th, from 5–7 PM, Franck from Vehrs will be in the shop to guide us through five wines from Borsao in Campo de Borja, Spain — a lineup that moves beautifully from crisp white to rosado to three different expressions of red, with Garnacha showing up in nearly every mood it has. Think of it as a Spanish dinner party in five glasses: fresh, generous, a little sun-soaked, and best enjoyed without rushing.

This week, we’re pouring five Italian wines that feel like proper Mother’s Day bottles — thoughtful, beautiful, a little transportive, and just fancy enough to say, “Yes, I did put effort into this.”

Franck from Vehrs will be in the shop Wednesday, May 6th from 5–7 PM to walk us through the wines, tell the stories, and help you find the bottle that fits the Mom, mother figure, wife, partner, host, auntie, grandmother, bonus mom, or “person who keeps everyone alive and emotionally regulated” in your life. As always, the wines will be open throughout the week while tasting stocks last.

WSWC this week—Italy, One Carafe at a Time: 6 wines with Corey in the shop Wednesday (4/29) 5–7PM

Six characterful Italian wines.
Corey in the shop Wednesday 5–7PM.
And the bottles open through the week, too.

Some tastings feel like a lecture — this one feels more like being let in on a secret.

This Wednesday (4/29, 5–7PM), Corey from Bianco Rosso joins us to pour wines from FUSO — a PortoVino project built around what still matters most in Italy: humble, vibrant, terroir-driven wines meant for the table, not the trophy shelf.

Think less Italy by postcard…
More Italy by carafe, kitchen table, aperitivo, and one-more-glass.

These wines are alive, expressive, and incredibly easy to love.

🍾 What we’re pouring:
• Flora Prosecco – crisp, dry, aperitivo-ready
• Spuma Rosé Lambrusco – bright, fizzy, a little wild
• Salse Verdicchio – citrus, mineral, quietly complex
• Calx Primitivo – lifted, fresh, southern warmth
• Cala Rosso – sun-soaked but refreshing (Nero d’Avola + Grillo)
• Tèh Rosso – Piemonte, punchy + beautifully rustic

These are the kinds of wines we love most — not flashy, just right.
At the table. With food. With friends. Maybe one bottle turning into two.

✨ Join us Wednesday 5–7PM to taste with Corey
🍷 Or swing by later — the wines will be open all week

If you’ve been needing an excuse to stop in… this is a good one.

WSWC Closed Wednesday (4/22), Open Thursday 3-7PM (4/23) + Auclair Friday Tasting (4/24)

We reopen Thursday from 3-7pm, then pour Auclair Winery on Friday, and we’re open regular hours Friday through Sunday!

A quick update from the shop and a very good reason to stop in this week.

We’ll be closed tomorrow, Wednesday 4/22/26.

We’ll be open Thursday 4/23/26 from 3-7PM 4/23/26

Then on Friday 4/24/26, we’ll be pouring Auclair Winery with Bill from Sustenance Distributing and we’ll be back to regular hours Friday through Sunday.

If you’ve been needing an excuse to swing by, this is a good week for one.

Auclair is exactly the kind of producer we love to share: thoughtful, polished, and full of quiet confidence. These wines feel grounded and expressive Washington wines with structure, soul, and a beautiful sense of restraint. The lineup is clean, compelling, and very easy to drink your way through.

2020 Auclair Semillon
A white with depth and composure. Textural, softly layered, and elegant, this is the bottle for anyone who likes their whites with a little more shape and quiet richness.

2024 Auclair Sauvignon Blanc Artz Vineyard
Bright, lifted, and refreshing, but not one-note. This has that crisp spring energy you want, with enough presence to keep it feeling complete.

2021 Auclair 96 Cedars Red Blend
Smooth, polished, and easy to love. Dark fruit, gentle savory notes, and just enough structure make this an effortless dinner-table red.

2021 Auclair Cabernet Sauvignon Heart of the Hill
The deeper, more serious side of the tasting. Structured, dark-toned, and composed, this is a slow-sip kind of Cabernet with real presence.

2023 Auclair Left Blend
Layered, balanced, and beautifully put together. This is the kind of red that settles in and keeps getting better with each glass.

This Wednesday (4/15/26): High-End Piedmont Wines, 5–7pm
Taste five beautiful wines from Alessandro Rivetto with Peter Kingsley of Cherry Hill.

This Wednesday, we’re headed to Piedmont.
Join us Wednesday 4/15/26 from 5–7pm for a high-end Italian tasting built around one remarkable producer: Alessandro Rivetto. Peter Kingsley from Cherry Hill will be in the shop talking through the wines, the producer, and what makes this corner of Piedmont one of the world’s great places for serious, soulful reds. These wines will also be available to taste through the rest of the week while tasting stocks last — so if something speaks to you, don’t wait too long.

We’re calling this one Piedmont in Five Acts — a lineup that moves from bright and immediate to structured, layered, and quietly profound.

We’ll start with the Barbera d’Alba, deep ruby and full of fresh fruit, energy, and length — the kind of wine that opens the palate and sets the tone right away. Then into Langhe Nebbiolo, where the aromatics turn more lifted and savory: dried flowers, raisin, licorice, and fine tannins that start to show Nebbiolo’s shape.

From there, the wines deepen. The Barbaresco DOCG brings rose petals, licorice, blackberry, and a velvety frame with beautiful balance. The Barolo DOCG follows with dried rose, violet, and dusky spice — robust, structured, and classically composed. And then the final pour: Barolo “Serralunga” Single Vineyard, a more layered, powerful expression with raspberry, vanilla, to***co, and licorice wrapped into something firm, rich, and elegant.

This is a tasting for anyone who wants to understand why Piedmont has the reputation it does — and for anyone who just wants a very good glass on a Wednesday with someone knowledgeable guiding the way.
