OUR TEAM
KELLY RIOS
CERTIFIED WSET 3
From handcuffs to corkscrews, our manager, Kelly retired from the NYPD in 2020 and began studying wine in hopes of a second successful career.
​
Kelly has only been in the wine industry a few years, with her start at a local wine shop, conducting wine classes and tastings.
​
Last year she completed the WSET level 3 Award in wines, she now has all of the knowledge and experience necessary to help you select the perfect bottle. Her passion for wine is why she loves working in wine shops.
You’ll find her frequently talking to customers about wine and making new suggestions regardless of what style you enjoy. Be careful! You may just leave with a variety of new wines you’ll fall in love with.
Check out her Food Truck Wine Pairings, something you won’t find anywhere in the area.
TERRI WANCKEL
BAR MANAGER
Terri is no stranger to the bar having managed and worked the bar scene for many years. If she’s not cleaning or chatting it up with customers, she’s always trying to come up with new creative wine cocktails that are fun and exciting. But don’t be fooled by her fun nature. She can always spot an empty glass, carry conversations with all types of customers, and will make sure customers don’t overdo it. Everyone’s safety is her main concern as well as their enjoyment.
