Wines Off Wynkoop Announcement
Family, friends, customers and neighbors, we first and foremost want to thank you for your support these past 27+years. We wouldn't have made it this long without you! We've made many friends and acquaintances through the years, and have many fond memories and gathered some crazy stories over the years, that's for sure! And because of all these connections with all of you, it makes our hearts even heavier in telling you that Wines Off Wynkoop will be closing at the end of February 2025.
Wines Off Wynkoop opened its doors in June 1997 to a very different LoDo and Downtown Denver. I (Jonathan) started at the wine store "In The Alley" back in June 2003. Lisa and I began taking over as owners in 2014 from Jed Rulon-Miller, one of the founding members of Wines Off Wynkoop. Thank you Jed! We'd like to take a moment to personally thank Jed for everything he's done for us along the way, as a guide, supporter, and a friend. While this has been one of the hardest decisions we've made in our lives, we believe it's the right decision after weighing all our options during many conversations the past few months.
Starting on Monday, January 27th, we will begin putting inventory on sale. We hope that you'll stop in and take advantage of these lower prices to help us move through our inventory and stock your own shelves and cabinets!
We will also be putting out allocated bottles that we've been saving. While they might not be on sale (or not as discounted as other items), they will be available for purchase!
And be sure to check your email and social media for updated announcements on when our final day open will be, and what deals are going on at that point in the process.
While it's sad to say goodbye to something that's been a part of our daily lives for over 21-years, we look forward to the next chapter in our lives, and are curious to see where the path leads us. Signing off this Friday evening, January 24th, with a glass of wine in hand, we say Cheers! and look forward to seeing you for the sales!
With gratitude and love,
Jonathan and Lisa Gelaude
