What was once a horse stable is now no more; let's face it, wine smells much better anyway! Located in the bustling area of George Town, this pretty little wine lounge has kept its' rustic charm. Something old, something new, something complex, or even bottles that are rare and very few; is what to expect out of the cellar.

To the right is their fine dining area
Both locations have a 2nd floor
A view of the wine bar
Cheese boards, meat boards, finger food, and much more; whatever dish you choose the staff at GeorgeTown Wines can recommend the perfect food and wine pairing, or you can take a walk through the wine cellar and let your imagination run wild.
The 2nd floor of the wine bar is the perfect place to sit back and relax with a glass of wine in your hand.
The house reds are kept in a wine preservation machine to ensure that each glass is as fresh as the last.
Whites by the glass are vacuum pumped to guarantee freshness.
Happy hour started off with glasses of buy one get one free (Semillion Sauvignon Blanc) blends from Australia.
House reds also apply to the happy hour special.
I gave the Eye Spy Yarra Ridge Australian Shiraz a try...simple description...dark berries and barn yards! The description is almost fitting for what this building was long ago.

| I did not give this bottle a try, but was told this red was more on the sweeter side. |
There is no wine list here so take a walk through their wine cellar to choose your wine.
If you are feeling a bit muddled, the manager here is well versed in the wines on offer, and is always happy to help customers find a bottle according to their budget and taste.

| A nice little selection of some whites from Burgundy |
 |
| An afternoon is always better with a bit of rose |
Alsace, located in northeastern France, just across the Rhine River from Germany, supply beautifully expressive and aromatic white wines such as Riesling, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, and Gewürztraminer.
Alsatian whites are definitely my go to wines; they make the perfect pairing partner with spicy Asian cuisine.

| A little bit of bubbly is always a wonderful party starter, and a great tool to lift one's spirits. |
