OUR STORY

Our story began when Owner Chris Fox was stationed in Vicenza Italy and such his love affair with wine began. After frequenting many wine bars all over Europe, Chris spent many nights speaking to wine bar owners and winery owners learning their passion. After leaving Active Duty and transitioning into the Army Reserves Chris attended Old Dominion University, where he received his Degree in Geography and GIS. During his studies he had been searching for a wine bar that reminded him of Europe. With no luck the idea was born to create such a space and bring that European wine bar experience and vibe to the population of Hampton Roads. 

Justin Ramos grew up in NYC and always had a passion for food. After leaving the military he became a server before deciding he wanted to actually make the foods that he saw giving so much excitement to the guests. For 6 years Justin had the pleasure of working with some of the best chefs in South Florida and all the while traveling around the world and staging (french term) in some fantastic kitchens. After meeting Chris and seeing his dream Justin knew he was on to something and decided to partner with him in executing the concept within his idea for a wine bar.
