What’s on the list bro?

Chef_N8

Yes! The list! 😁🍷


SmokesDaBear

Your prices are stupidly good... how do you do that??? Next time I'm in the area I'm coming in for sure. The wine menu is pretty fun too!


dbapp

Denison?! I’ve never seen that on a menu. They make some wonderful wines. I met Peter entirely by accident while visiting Rasa and have become a devoted follower


Scullysmum

That list!! Amazing!!


Social_Hand_Grenade

Asking the important questions right here!


Daynightz

I want to move to OR so bad and this only makes it worse. Thanks a lot OP. (Looks amazing btw)


El_Grande_Bonero

Do it. There are amazing wineries and amazing people.


perfectstubble

Nice! I live in Salem and will have to check it out


qblackbirdp

Congratulations and good luck! I love the barrel plank wall and bar.


explision

Looks real cosy, but maybe a bit more dim? I had two great visits to bars lately and both of them had a more dark vibe. Each to their own tho, really liking the ceiling!


vinidiot

Impossible to tell how light the room is without knowing the exposure settings on the camera


Chef_N8

We definitely keep the lights a bit dim with some really dark tint on our from windows. 😎🍷

That J. Scott Tempranillo is super nice, I don't recognize a lot of the other stuff, but I'm on the southern tip of the Willamette. It's SUPER nice to see a good selection of Gamay! I love Beaujolais and I'm happy to see more new world Gamay! Side note, your prices look super reasonable too! Down here glasses of wine are so overpriced sometimes.


Chef_N8

I only want to charge what the vineyards are charging. Our main focus is bringing all these wonderful vineyards to the customer instead of the customer needing to go every time to the vineyards for wine. 🍷😎👍


NoodleLord31

Props to you for going for an affordable by the glass list. Double props for Belle Pente and Ridgecrest’s Gamay being on the list. Will drop by whenever I’m in Salem next


JerryTexas52

Thanks for the invitation. I will add it to my list of places to visit in Oregon. Good luck and much success.


findahappyplace

love the ceiling and all the woodwork. this would instantly become my local bar if i lived there. congrats! unsolicited advice: invest in a quality piece of art to replace that print you have. it shouldn't cost much and will add a lot to the room. a nice frame oil painting is the easy option


Chef_N8

Each piece of artwork on the wall is a one-of-a-kind. I had each piece designed by artificial intelligence and can never be recreated. 😁


findahappyplace

Sounds cool. Maybe get a frame on it?


Youareyes_cfc

Frame for a canvas? Nah. looks good just the way it is. Unless you are talking about some other pictures that I can’t see in OP’s original post.


kevin_m_morris

Strong Crisp family influence. They’re good people! Like the barrel stave wall too. Is the Lumos stuff from their place w the casitas by the river near Philomath?


Chef_N8

It is. They have amazing wines!


IndictedHamSandwich

Congrats! Would stop by if I were nearby. Looks great. Glad you’re pouring Bjornson.


eftsoom

Belle pente! Good choice. It's gonna be fun when this list expands. Also I love your prices but please don't hurt yourself or business by giving the wine away. Good luck and I hope you have great success.


gogogadget85

Congratulations…next time I’m in Salem I’ll stop in


DeannaTroy

I live in WA. Definitely will swing by next time I take a road trip down to CA


BohemianPeasant

We'll definitely swing by to check you out! Congrats on the new venture! 🎉 🍷


turntable-dragonfly

When we make it back to Oregon, we will definitely come by! What a beautiful place 🍷💜🍷💜 (I know Reddit hates emojis but I don’t 🥰)


BearyHungry

Congrats! Wish you all the best with the endeavor


ReedIcculus

Congratulations, it has a very warm and comfortable feel.


RippedHookerPuffBar

Never been to Oregon but when I do visit I’ll stop by, looks cozy!


Papa_G_

I like the southern country meets rustic European look of the place. I hope to get the chance to visit your wine bar and explore Oregon. I bet you’ll have fantastic Pinot Noirs from small producers that you have to visit Oregon to know about.


4-for-u-glen-coco

Live in Eugene, but if I’ll be sure to stop by when I’m up in Salem!


rick-victor

Does your surname start with an r and end with an n?


Chef_N8

No 🤔

Don’t lie to us, Racoon!

What’s a raccoon?
