Call your friends and enjoy the holiday cheer at Volo Wine Bar when we will be tasting high quality selections (with great alternatives to pricey Champagnes perfect for your budget), that you can enjoy giving, receiving, or just drinking through the holidays with recommendations on traditional food and wine pairings to go with your celebration, as well as assisting with ideas for giving the gift of great wine this holiday.

Chef/Partner Stephen Dunne & Managing Partner / Wine Director Jon Young have collaborated on a menu of gourmet bites that pair effortlessly with everything bubbly to create what is sure to be another dynamic event full of exciting wines, delicious food, and good friends. Sample eight sparkling selections while you enjoy our cozy indoor bar/dining room and #1 Hidden City Patio (chimag), now fully enclosed and heated, with open seating and tasting bars throughout.

What could be better than enjoying great wines with friends in a wonderful atmosphere while you can get some holiday shopping done at the same time (did we mention that Volo Gift Cards make a great stocking stuffer?
