Cliff and Mitch Einhorn (the brothers who own the Twisted Spoke) are behind this University Village wine shop. The boutique vineyard-focused inventory includes about 250-300 choices, with a price range of $11-$800 and there are 48 wines at $10 or less. The inventory also includes hard-to-find spirits and off-the-beaten-path beers. The adjacent patio with picnic tables is a major perk; just BYO snacks or carryout to match with a bottle from the store, which the staff will chill for you on the double.
