Wines
We’re not snobby about our wines! After all, we sell more than 300 varieties, including options under $10!
We just prefer to promote small family-owned wineries, especially vineyards that treat their employees well and support sustainable growing practices. Root Cellar owner Sera Cuni is happy to help you with a selection. Can’t wait until you get home to taste it? Pick any bottle from our shelf and enjoy! We never charge a corkage fee.
