Brooklyn Wine Exchange | Grand Opening Today!

Brooklyn Wine Exchange
136 Court Street
Brooklyn, NY 11201

The proprietors of Smith & Vine wine shop, Stinky bklyn cheese shop, and The Jake Walk bar & restaurant bring all of us lucky Brooklynites a new wine shop just steps from Court Street’s Trader Joe’s, Brooklyn Wine Exchange.

They open for business today at 3:00 PM, with a tasting at 4.  Don’t get too comfortable though as they close this evening for a private party.  But fear not, they will open again tomorrow and every day thereafter.  Saturdays will feature wine tastings from 2PM – 7PM.

I’m hoping that like Smith & Vine they have a $12 and under table.  I also look forward to a nice selection of Bordeaux like some of the ones I sampled last night at the Bordeaux MatchMaking event I attended last night at Cipriani Wall Street.  Could be a new kick for me!
