Great selection of wines! The menu makes it really easy to navigate flavors and sweetness levels. A good dessert always elevates a great wine, and their tiramisu is easily the highlight of the menu.

Smaller than expected, really loved the vibe. Staff were super friendly and attentive, drinks were good and fairly priced for the place. Did not try much food but did try the affogato and it was perfect afternoon treat. Really like the concept and would definitely return. Side note, we really liked how they included other local shops/bars/restaurants in the back of their menu and ended up trying a couple from their list :)

This place came highly recommended to me and I was so geeked that we were able to check it out. The vibes are so cool 😎 We came on a Sunday afternoon and was able to snag a seat at one of there velvet couches. This was one of THE most unique wine/cocktail bar I’ve been to for a few reasons. I loved the way their menu was formatted with details on flavor profiles, styles and separated into quadrants. They had a small food menu that was very intriguing and eccentric. My eyes locked in on the Thai Tea Panna Cotta! OMG yum! It was decadent, luscious and was so flavorful. The layered coconut milk and that lemon meringue on top was such a nice touch of acid to cut through all that richness. I’m a sucker for boba pearls too so it was all delicious. Our server was so friendly and helped us through the menu. She checked in on us periodically and made sure we were taken care of. They were also playing great music! I would highly recommend this place for all sorts of vibes - girls night out, date night or even just solo. Can’t wait to come back!

First time visiting this gem in West Asheville, and I’m absolutely in love! The ambiance is fabulous, super cozy, colorful, and intimate. It honestly felt like I was hanging out in my own living room (but way more beautifully decorated). The space feels very private and thoughtfully curated. The menu offers a great selection of savory snacks, desserts, and wines. Our server, Josy, was mind-blowing! She gave us amazing recommendations and truly elevated the experience. I originally went in for an espresso martini, only to discover it’s actually a wine bar, and I’m so glad I did! Josy recommended a bottle of Lambrusco that I absolutely loved. We also ordered the cheese board, which was very reasonably priced and delicious. And the chocolate coconut tres leches? Incredible. A must-try! They had Latin music playing, which I personally loved, it added so much to the warm, vibrant atmosphere. The vibe of this place is just amazing. 100% recommended!

First of all - absolutely incredible menu, one of my favorites from recent spots we’ve been. We were only there for drinks after a small brunch nearby, so we got a weird but delicious mix of mostly non-food. Ice cream and cocktails and amaro? Never thought of it before, but sign me up. Fairly easy to miss even with an A-Frame out front, Potential New Boyfriend’s outside is unassuming and inside is…garish and gaudy and a little impersonal. I kind of get the inspiration, and the lava lamps and colors and CRTs are appreciated but not quite the right match for such a great menu. Every flavor of ice cream we tried (vanilla, chocolate, cereal milk(!)) was delicious, and just $5 for a small scoop. I had a couple smoky/sweet amaro and sherry with mine, and the wine matrix was an appreciated help for choosing what I wanted next. More on the wine matrix - my favorite part. Amaros, wines, vermouths, sherry, and more all carefully and thoughtfully labeled and graphed so you could go from herbal & sweet to dry and fruity without knowing anything about what you’re ordering. Very cool. Always nice to have your hand held through trying new spirits without being too needy and hands-on from the serv
