The WineStyles Tasting Station is a hybrid retail store and bar—after it's finished functioning as a wine shop by day, it transforms into a wine bar by night.
Unlike many wine stores, this unique retail concept also sells spirits and beer, in addition to glassware and gift items. Consumers looking for more insights beyond the in-store tastings are hosted on Fridays and Saturdays can interact with an array of digital technology at the Wine Education Center. After hours, WineStyle provides a "one-of-a-kind, clubhouse experience," serving craft beer and small plates.
With 21 WineStyles locations already open, there are plans for at least 10 more to open in 2016, providing even more places for the public to become immersed in the latest in food and beverage culture, education and entertainment.
