Products & Services
THE GRAPE presents to its
patrons a non-intimidating and pleasurable atmosphere in which to enjoy
great wines and food at reasonable prices. The Grape’s presentation of
120 to 150 deliciously unique wines—available by the bottle, glass and
Grapes by the Bunch® tasting flight—is based on its copyrighted Classification Guide, which classifies wine by taste. Our motto is “Your Taste Is All That Counts,” and we practice what we preach by bringing you superb wines from all over the world for you to taste and enjoy.
Every one of our patrons has the right to taste any wine before purchase in both our Retail Seller and Wine Bar. We present you with delicious and unique wines, many of which are virtually exclusive to The Grape. Labels are not important, since “Your Taste Is All That Counts” and value always exceeds price at The Grape. In addition to offering great wines, we present a full menu of small-plate gourmet fare designed to complement the wine list. To fully appreciate The Grape, you must experience it at one of our locations.
