If you live in Charlotte, and you haven't heard of this place then you've probably been under a rock or spending WAY too much time at the Bank (like I have). My friends have been telling me about this place for months, but this past weekend was my first time in. \r

It is honestly one of the coolest retail concepts I have ever seen. The design is second to none. It's very hip and modern. Basically, it's like the Apple Store for wine buyers. The prices are amazing too. When I first walked in I expected it to be expensive (based on the look and feel), but was ecstatic when I saw that almost all of the wines visible were under $25-$30. They also took me to the back room for more expensive bottles when I said that I needed something for my father's birthday. They have some total Cherries back there as well. I loved it. \r

I tasted wines of their tasting machines (you HAVE to see it to believe it) and ended up buying a baker's dozen -- 12 for me and 1 for my Dad. \r

I have nothing left to say other than you just have to see and experience this place to believe it. I'll be back soon.
Pros: Prices, Selection, Service, ""Cool"" Factor
Cons: That I had to eventually leave and go to dinner.
