Salute! Wine Market is "The Place for Everything Wine" in Historic Winchester, Virgnia. The first market focused exclusively on the enjoyment of wine in Winchester, we opened on August 28, 2005.
Our Wine Selection - Wine for the Curious to the Collector™
At Salute! we like to say we have a selection of Wine for the Curious to the Collector™. With an ever expanding selection of wines from all over the world you'll find great wine in all price ranges. If you're a new to wine and a Curious wine enthusiast you'll find selections to start you on your wine exploration. If you've been enjoying wine for years, our broad range helps you branch out on new and exciting journeys around the world. And if you're experienced and a Collector you'll want to spend some time browsing our Collectibles section. You may just find that bottle you've been looking for to compliment your cellar.
We have a great selection of wines rated and recognized by the popular press like Robert Parker, Jr, Wine Spectator and Decanter but equally you'll find lots of undiscovered gems from folks that are hand crafting great wine at a great value and don't make it to the radar screen of the reviewers. We generally avoid carrying wines you'd recognize from the groceries stores or supermarkets. You always know where to find those.
Our Italian Heritage Makes Italy Our First Love
We specialize in the great wines of Italy. We love the fun, friendly and family center of the Italian people and the approachability of the wines they create. From everyday Chiantis to the three kings of Italy, Borolo, Barbaresco and Brunello you'll find them all at Salute!
Our Focus
Our focus is your enjoyment of wine. You'll find many things in our shop to help including:
A great selection of wine, including Port, Sherry, Madeira, champagne and other sparkling wines and of course dessert wines.
A focus on wine tasting and education.
A selection of the finest accessories to help enhance you're experience at home.
We are focused on providing a fun, friendly and welcoming atmosphere for people to learn about wine through its hands-on enjoyment. Our events are fun, friendly and focused on a theme around learning. We have a large tasting bar and cafe area dedicated to these events so you don't have to stand around in the aisles or among the racks. There's plenty of room for 20 or so guests to sit down and relax.
Where You'll Find Us
You'll find Salute! in the heart of the Historic District of Winchester on the Old Town walking mall. Truly a neighborhood wine shop with the selection found in the largest metro city. You can escape the hustle and bustle of the big box bonanza & mall scene of Winchester and escape back to the relaxed atmosphere of Old Town. Along with our shop you'll find along the way a collection of fine art and antique galleries, the very best dining Winchester has to offer.
