about the wine place

Welcome to The Wine Place, a relaxed and friendly wine shop nestled on the central Oregon coast in the charming village of Yachats.

Owned and operated by Carrie Yano, The Wine Place is located next door to Gourmet Lady, a cheery storefront offering 600 gourmet and specialty food items, with an on-line business as well. With Yano's practical knowledge of food and wine, The Wine Place is a natural complement to Gourmet Lady.

Upon opening the gourmet food boutique in May 2004, enthusiastic customers snatched up countless bottles of quality Oregon wine. Yano quickly realized she needed more space to keep pace with the demand. In November 2004, The Wine Place was born. Together, the shops provide the ideal pairing: Gourmet food. Choice wines.

The Wine Place features an extensive selection of regional wines along with offerings from national and international vintners. Encouraging the enjoyment of life's little pleasures, the shop promotes local vineyards with complimentary wine tasting every afternoon as well as frequent, informal opportunities to meet and mingle with Oregon winemakers. The Wine Place also offers wine-by-the-glass.

In addition, The Wine Place occasionally hosts guided tasting and special events. These entertaining and informative evenings include wine tasting, appetizers, and informal conversation about the winemaking process and food pairings.
