"A Washington, D.C. shop focused on Latin American, Spanish, and Portuguese wines, with about half its inventory labeled as natural. The store intentionally keeps shelf labels sparse to prompt conversation rather than overwhelm customers with information, and the co-founder runs frequent events with importers and producers—often paired with snacks—and offers classes for those who want a deeper education. Staff use discovery conversations to introduce shoppers to unexpected regions (for example, natural Malbecs from Argentina) and to help customers find wines based on reference bottles or favorite flavor notes." - Abigail Koffler
