"Inside Dedalus, a wine market and restaurant in Burlington, Vermont, I sat puzzled. Bread and butter were on the menu for $12, priced the same as a tempting chicken liver mousse. Unconvinced that the age-old duo should carry such a cost, I went with the cow itself: beef tartare dotted with caviar and shavings of horseradish. Still, the waiter returned to push the bread and butter. And in the end, curiosity won out; I caved." - ByNoah Lederman

"Located in Burlington’s South End Arts District, Dedalus is a ten minute walk from the downtown Church Street Marketplace. Also a market and wine shop, Dedalus is loved by locals as a serious wine-lovers’ haven. Sit on the patio under hanging lights and enjoy some of the many pours from Burgundy, Beaujolais, the Loire, the Northern Rhone, California, Corsica, Sardinia, and Piedmont or a sparkling glass of Champagne." - Heather Platt

Wife and I came here after hearing good things from locals. Our experience was a wonderful one. Fall Sunday night, kinda slow crowd-wise but everything was good. The knowledge of the staff about wine and food pairings was terrific. The food and wine was delicious. From the marinated olives, Parisian ham with comte & brown butter, to the local cheese plate, and the amazing roasted carrots with seasoned creme fraiche & pickled cauliflower all just hit perfectly. It was a wonderful experience for us but I can see when things are busy that the measured service could get longer waits.

While I might not be a regular wine drinker, there's something enchanting about indulging in a truly exceptional bottle. The aroma, the flavors – pure bliss! 🇫🇷 This exquisite French wine has me captivated. And let's talk about these burgers – not usually my thing, but these grilled crab burgers are a taste revelation! 😋!

Based on recommendations from several friends, we stopped in @dedaluswine to try out some cheese, charcuterie and delicious wine. Manager Anthony had us sit at the best table and Willem was a wonderful server, so friendly and knowledgeable. I ended up not liking the special glass of rare wine and was able to get something I enjoyed, Morgan. The oysters were half price and enormous. Afterwards, we visited the retail store in the front and grabbed a bottle of the wine I had plus a couple bottles of Beaujolais Nouveau. Looking forward to returning to some of their special events in the wine garden.

Excellent dinner! Shout out to chef Ryan! The menu is creative and delicious. Every bite was perfectly seasoned and the use of herbs really added to the complexity of the dishes. Every bite was so flavorful! I want to take everyone here!

We passed by this place on our way to another location, Turned around to check it out and wound up making reservations for the next night. We were not disappointed. Our server Ashley was one of the top 5 we have ever had and if you follow our reviews, you know that is saying something. Great atmosphere from the building to the furnishings, and the place settings. Great menu and exceptional service. To have a young server who gave us a detailed explanation of every item we asked about was impressive. We shared two appetizers and a meal paired with a wine recommended by Ashley. To say we left satisfied is an understatement. Ranks in the top 5 of our best culinary and wine experiences. We will be back and highly recommend you add this of places to stop while in Burlington.

This place has the best customer service, delicious wine, and food. We were early for our reservation and got to do a wine tasting in the store while we waited for our table. Our waitress (Brig- forgive me if that's wrong) was super attentive and helpful! It was a great end to a day of hiking!!!

I went here to enjoy charcuterie and wine but the restaurant didn’t open until 5PM so they nicely offered to help pick out some meats and cheese with wine according to my taste buds. I wish I got their names. The woman working the cheese area knows her cheeses and the man in the meat section picked me out a delicious fresh meat! For the price it’s beyond worth it. I’m a charcuterie connoisseur. I will be back!

Dedalus Wine was a cool Wine Market that my girlfriend and I found when a local told us about visiting Pine Street. Boy are we glad we came down here. Our sommelier was very friendly and helpful with choosing the right bottle of wine for us!

Good atmosphere, good food, good drinks. I had made a reservation for a table but had no problem getting a bar seat instead. I was there on a Tuesday and it was half priced oysters - what a thrill! My bartender made an excellent recommendation based on my preferences. Oysters were great and shucked at the bar. The mignonette was perfect. The beef tartare was marvelous - juicy meat, well balanced with the sauce and truffle chips. Triple crème was phenomeeeennnaalll. I shared that my doc is making me be gluten free and asked if there was anything that could serve as a sub. A server offered gluten free crackers (which were way tastier than they looked!). My only disappointment was that they didn't give me a heads up that the gf option was a $6 up charge. I know GF costs the restaurant, and I'm generally willing to pay a little more, but $6 for 15 crackers feels excessive!! The cheese itself was 10, I don't know that I would have added 50% to that item bc I can't eat the bread, and I would have liked the option of making the decision. Would return, but definitely want to give the heads up to my GF friends about the steep up charge.

We had the loveliest time here! We visited for their charcuterie workshop on a Sunday afternoon, and it was such a nice way to spend the afternoon. We got there early and were greeted by the most friendly workshop host/Dedalus employee, Brittany. They were still in the process of setting up the class, so we walked over to their little store/gift shop. I could've looked around in there for hours! They had so many unique and interesting things - panettone, gourmet chocolates, tin fish, meats, cheeses, gift boxes for the holidays, and much much more. The workshop we took was wonderful. It was lead by Brittany, their sommelier, and Dana, their cheese monger, and they taught us about different wine, cheese, and meat pairings to curate a holiday charcuterie board. The wines and cheeses they selected were divine and so delicious. I loved everything that they gave us, and they selected some pretty unique choices that I was worried I wouldn't enjoy. Everything was wonderful, and they gave us a lot of information about everything we consumed. This store is such a lovely spot and I wish I had something similar near me! It's cozy and classy, without being pretentious. Their sommelier knows so much about the wines they have and I never felt silly or stupid asking questions. She mentioned that she loves to ask customers about their preferences and budget and keeps a very open environment when people come in, and is able to select the best wines that suit them. I'm looking forward to coming back here the next time I'm in town!

I ate there not expecting much but was pleasantly surprised. Place is darkly attractive and busy the night I went. Sat at bar. Nice help, good eats. Interesting.

The ambiance, food and service of the restaurant were pleasant and enjoyable! The wine choices were amazing. We bought 4 bottles to take home.

This place is awesome! I wish this store/restaurant was located near me. First they have a great wine shop with a very informative staff to help you select wines to try/recommendations. The restaurant - the food is served like Tapas. All dishes are shareable for sure. The staff gave recommendations on wine pairings for each dish, and they were spot on. The food was delicious, innovative, and not a crumb was left on the plates. I could easily be here at least twice a month for dinner. Super casual, fun, and a great vibe.

Visited Dedalus Wine Shop, Market, and Wine Bar on Saturday evening. My biggest regret was not choosing this place for a full meal, the food is excellent and the wine selection is tremendous. Quality: Not originally part of our plans, I am so glad we checked out Dedalus. It is worth coming to for dinner, but even just for some snacks and wine it was lovely. The bottle list is full of gems, but they also have a substantial glass list. The food we had was incredible, and it was hard not to get more. The Beef Tartare is fantastic, and the Market Board showcases all sorts of wonderful items. Quantity: Generous pours and assorted size dishes. Value: $9-$15 for a Glass of Wine. $15 for the Beef Tartare. $39 for the Market Board. Ambiance: Dedalus Wine Shop, Market, and Wine Bar is located in Burlington. It is all the things they list in their name, but the wine bar is the highlight. We sat at the dimly lit bar in a romantic space surrounded by wine bottles. They have some shared tables, but most are set up for couples. The music was jazz and classical, completing the atmosphere. Crowd: About half full early on Saturday evening. Service: Wonderful, I wasn't sure what to expect, but they have both a shop and a full-service restaurant. Parking: Private parking lot.

Great and attentive service. Staff was very knowledgeble about the wine and the different cheeses. We started with cheese plate and it was SO good! We then had the vegetarian pasta with burrata. Pasta was very as very good, there was just a lot of olive oil so do wish there was less. Overall, we did have a great time & would go back if we are back in the area!

Came per Cristina R's recommendation and had a great time. The staff were super helpful and funny. We ended up getting the wines of the night because of how great our server was. We paired it with the food, which was a flatbread that could have gone for another 2-3 min in the oven. We also got a cheese plate that was great.

This place is absolutely amazing! First off, the service here is spectacular. I arrived a little early for my reservation so I was asked to view the store as the staff finished up their prep work. I was asked a couple of times by staff members if I needed any help. The wine selection here is nice, but very expensive. Be prepared to pay $30 or much more for a bottle. I'm not a wine expert so I'm not sure if their prices are fair or not in the retail section but expect to pay quite a bit for a bottle. The quality may warrant these prices, but I have no idea. I was also impressed with the selection of food items. I bought a can of Smoked Sardines and Crackers and had them when I got home. They were excellent. There is also a nice cheese selection. I was just as impressed with the service in the restaurant. I sat in the patio section and thought it was spectacular. The Rose and White wines I had were fantastic and the service was spot on. The Cucumber Salad was delicious and huge. It had to be at least a full cucumber, if not more. The dill and onions were a nice addition as well. The Oysters are cooked and were pretty good. I always prefer raw Oysters but these were good. The Cucumber Salad and Oysters came out very fast. I decided to finish off with the Smoked Sardine Pate. I was surprised it came in a can as I thought it would be homemade. It was good with the toast. I do feel they could give you more toast to place the Pate and Grainy Mustard on but that's my only gripe. I officially declare this place as my new spot in Burlington. I plan on coming here several days a week for the great service, wine, and food. Also, the prices are very good. I would usually pay well over $100 for what I got when I lived in DC and I spent under $70 and felt I received a lot of value at this price point.

I found this place on Yelp as it is my go to for restaurant recommendations when I am in a new town. We had a reservation for our group and were excited to try the tapas style menu and wine. So why the 1 star review. It comes down to service. When we first sat down and were trying to figure out which bottles to order we asked to taste a few that were in the wine by the glass list to narrow our selection. The waitress was accommodating for the first 2 we tasted(ended up getting a bottle of one of them) but when we asked to taste a third she said "we are not in the business of giving free samples". We ended up ordering a bottle of the third wine we tasted but were upset by her treatment of us. We are not sure if it was the color of our skin or the waitress was just having a bad day. We proceeded to order many dishes and more wine. The cheese board was good but overpriced for what you got. Also the waitress did not explain what cheeses were where on the board so we had to ask another server for help. Overall the food was good but very small portions. and expensive for what you got. We were planning to address our displeasure with the service by giving her a 15% tip instead of our group's standard of 20-25% and leave a review reflecting just the experience with the food and leave the service out of it. However when our bill came it had a 20% gratuity added automatically. We asked to speak to the manger and explained the situation. He at first was "shocked" but came back and said he could make any adjustments to the bill. We were asking to drop the tip to 15% which we felt was reasonable. There were no apologies for the behavior. It is clear that this restaurant group does not care about the customer experience which is such a large part of the dining experience.

First off, the set up and vibe of Dedalus makes you forget whatever type of day you weee having. Once you enter you are ready for some amazing wine and a taste of whatever that delicious smell is coming from the open kitchen. Add the incredible service and of course one of a kind house made dessert and you have taken a little vacation to whatever ration in France, Spain, or Italy right here. Highly recommend

One of the best date night spots in Burlington. The food is delicious and so is the wine. It's pricey but mostly worth it. My one complaint is that they once took our wine with a glass still left. It was a 60 dollar bottle and we had intended to drink every drop.

Tracy K.

Yelp
$10 for a bag of truffle chips! This place is so pretentious. Most of the wine selection is well more than double the price you could find online. The ambiance is nice but you realize you're paying through the nose to have them recoup their renovation costs. Go there for a glass of wine for $20 a glass served or purchase a bottle from a guy that looks at you disdainfully because you're disrupting his web searching.

Such a wonderful Sunday night with my friends this past September. Wonderful options for small plates to share & a fun selection of wines! We loved the half priced oysters & cheese board. The BUTTER offering- just wow. Our waitress helped us pick the best wines for our individual tastes & made the evening so lovely! I loved the chance to shop around the retail store after our early dinner and talk to the sommelier. I wish I lived close by so I could visit more often! Such a fantastic experience, give them a visit!!

I had heard about this place and my interest was peaked. Last night's wine and dinner experience exceeded my expectations! Where do I begin? The wonderful rustic edgy decor was the perfect foil for the display of unique wines and global provisions such as I haven't seen in Vermont or the USA. Variations of sardines , octopus and calamari to name a few. Then there was the selection of vinaigres and mustards and honeys ! All this before arriving at the cheese & charcuterie counters. The knowledgeable and pleasant staff willingly engaged in conversation and suggestions, offering samples alongside. We were seated with a splendid view of the dining room, outdoor terrace and the seafood bar where later we would watch as they shucked our oysters . Jason Zuliani , owner of DEDALUS and our friend and fellow diner Chef Tom Bivins were old friends from NECI days. Jason graciously came over to greet us and before long we were engaged in a riveting wine conversation, to say he is a Wine Aficionado is no exaggeration. But the highlight of the evening was our mutual love of Jura Wines which, as it happened, he was drinking and now offered to share with me! Talk about Kismet - Jura wines are extremely difficult to find Stateside but at DEDALUS there is a small but exceptional selection. I'm completely speechless. We ordered a variety of dishes, each one exceptional with a very clean palette.: anchovies and capers with olive oil, The Market Board was over the top!, followed by a plate of salt bed oysters-delicate and oh so fresh. The fresh Scarpinocc pasta was sublime as was the tomato tartine . Dessert did not disappoint - feeling emboldened I chose the basil ice cream with corn infused whipped cream while others chose the sourdough ice cream and the chocolate cake. Great Food, Great Wine , lovely atmosphere and wonderful friends made for a MARVELOUS Evening. I will come again and again and honestly so should you . BRAVO Jason at DEDALUS!

I love this place! I've always come here to buy wine and this is the first time I've sat down to eat here.. it's the perfect wine bar experience. The atmosphere is dim and inviting, the service knowledgeable and the food good. We will def be back

Amazing food. Amazing wine. Amazing service. My partner and I came for the free wine tasting but stayed for the ambiance and service. Our waiter was Bridget and she was so kind and bubbly but so knowledge about the selections. I learned a lot and it was truly a great night!

This was my favorite spot in Burlington! Such great wines and interesting food. The natural wines they offered were interring and so well priced. We enjoyed the casual outdoor wine garden pre dinner and could easily also have had a full dinner there too. Highly recommend it for anyone who loves creative, local sourced food and highly curated natural wines.

I wanted to get a special gift for my niece who lives in Burlington since this is her senior year of college and she would be celebrating her first pandemic birthday. I thought it would be easy to find a place in town to deliver a gift basket of local goodies, especially during COVID when it seems everyone is delivering these days. But I think I might be spoiled by living in NYC and all of the delivery options we have here. I looked all over and almost every food shop I could find in Burlington was pickup only. I didn't want to gift my niece an errand to go pick up her own gift, especially since she is a senior in college and on a busy schedule with a heavy course load and no car. I was so relieved when I found Dedalus Wine Shop and discovered that they not only have an incredible selection of high-quality food and wine but they offer local delivery too! It was so easy to select and pay for my items on their website. And their delivery window of 3-6pm for local orders was perfect for when my niece was sure to be home to receive the delivery. I picked out some delicious-looking treats to gift my niece something special outside of her usual college-student budget, and the next day Dedalus delivered them to her door. She was so excited when she got the delivery! I'm so grateful that Dedalus offers this service. I'm sure to order from them again for my niece's graduation later this year, since it's looking unlikely vaccinations will be rolled out quickly enough for a safe family gathering in May. And if it's ever safe for me to travel to Burlington again for a visit, I'm definitely going to stop by Dedalus for some treats for myself!

Overall romantic and quaint wine spot. The peach gazpacho was killer! The food is small and expensive so would not go for an entree type dinner. The wine we had was unique and delicious

Jessica V.

Yelp
What a treat! We ordered oysters (great, well shucked), beef tartare (perfect), white asparagus with a manchego sauce (delightful), gnocchi (good, not great), and pâté de campagne (also yummy, needed sturdier bread and more of it for eating). I asked for a glass of white in the style of the grape I'm used to drinking and was not thrilled with what the server suggested but it was nice with the oysters. I got a second glass of a skin-contact rosé and it was so good I bought a bottle in the shop after the meal, along with many loaves of bread, brioche, croissants and baguettes. The ambiance, lighting and furniture were beautiful. The service was ok. We sat at one end of a long table with others who were getting some sort of deluxe treatment from their server - I had to assume they were a friend or extended family - they got all kinds of tastings and special plates. It was hard not to compare our selections to theirs, since we essentially dined with these folks. I also have come to expect that if I had a reservation, I'd have a table to myself. At the end of the meal, my husband got a big splinter from the table, and we were surprised there was no apology or offer of a dessert or coupon for the future. We enjoyed the food and wine and setting and will return. Service was not perfect, but a lovely meal out.

Love the way this wine shop flows, guiding you through the different wine regions, each wine with a super easy to read info card to help you choose. Amazing meat and cheese counter as well as a wine bar. Customer service was fantastic, but I found I didn't really need it because of the way the wine is displayed. In the end I chose a Sancerre and a Cab Franc from Healdsburg, CA. Both bottles were deeeeelish!

Dedalus has become one of my favorite date night spots. The service is always incredible, the staff are very knowledgeable when it comes to food & wine pairings, and the food is always excellent.

I just visited the Stowe location for the first time. The baguette and oysters were delightful for our NYE feast for 2. And the Bergamino di Bufala that Scott recommended was the perfect choose to pair with our mini raw bar. Very excited to have a Dedalus in Stowe now too!

Yes the wine is good and the glass is big, but there is no way this is a full pour. A bit stingy...

Great concept for a space. I liked the decor and selection of wine and cheese. We sat in the wine bar for a while and the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about the wines. They described the specials in a very appealing way and I enjoyed my glass a lot. The cheese board was impressive and a generous portion. Plenty to share as was the chorizo. I enjoyed all the accompaniments that came along with the cheese: dried fruits, honied raisins, crackers etc. I would have liked more selection on the by the glass menu but would happily return!

Beat wine shop in Vermont. Everyone here is so nice and friendly, the selections are unrivaled, and the vibe is wonderful. Spent many evenings this summer on the front lawn having amazing food and wine!

Such a nice surprise! Wasn't sure what to expect. Wanted to find a wine bar and this was better that what I was thinking it could be. While sitting and enjoying some wine and appetizers, noticed a bottle of French Malbec wine being stocked. Needless to say, we bought that bottle. The wine shop has cheese tastings, lots of excellent varieties. Olive oil and vinegars, small selection. Being able to buy wine and then inside the same building enjoy wine and food is definitely worth the visit.

Amanda S.

Snobby and overpriced. The sales person smirked at me when I asked for a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. And the food we got at the wine bar was WAY too salty. Don't bother.

Yelp
Disappointing. The concept is great but the result was misleading at best. As locals we have discussed a visit to Dedalus and decided to give it a try on a rainy day. We started with two "flights" as an attempt to sample what had been chosen by the staff as their current favorites. In the process we had been informed that each flight would be the equivalent of 2.5 glasses of wine. The standard for a glass of wine is 5 oz. We made our choices from the two flights available. The lower flight end was 28$ the higher end was $42. The lower end flight arrive in three samples, each at 2 oz. The higher end flight arrive at two samples at 2oz each. The higher end in a large glass for deception? Nevertheless it was not even close to what was described during the ordering process. 2.5 glasses of wine each would be 25 oz and instead we received 10 oz in 5 different samples for $70!!! The cheese plate was great but include no Vermont offerings and this is unfortunate since Vermont has so much to offer. The pulled pork was great, we know the local farmer who has been deeply involved in the local food scene for some time. We tried to overlook the initial "flight" process and work through a selection on another glass of wine. This was ok but not stellar for what was presented. 76$:for 10oz of wine when we had been informed prior to our order that the "flight" would yield 2.5 glasses each??? This was not even enough to finish the cheese plate. $48 for 4 oz and I could have easily selected a $15 dollar a bottle of Willamette Pinot Noir and be so much more fulfilled. Out final bill for two aps and 2 small glasses of wine each $150. Unfortunately our biggest regret is that after our flights and aps were presented, no one returned to follow up and see if either the wine or the food was ok. A very basic expectation. There were only five other small groups / couples. Bummer, we were hoping for so much more a a reason to return.

This place transports you to feeling like you're in a city without leaving Burlington! I would say this place has the best ambiance in town -- the perfect place for a romantic date night or girls' night out. The cheeseboard is delicious and the staff are very knowledgeable about the selection of wines. 10/10 vibes, so glad to have this place around

Fantastic quality prepared foods. I really thought they were restaurant quality. This became my go-to place during COVID when I didn't want to eat in restaurants but also didn't fancy cooking on my own. Great find.

Yelp
Fun, cute, local place! My roommate and I live right around the corner and had been dying to try this as wine lovers. Glasses seemed to range from $9-$15. They also have some food options to munch on. I love that they have the wine shop in addition to the wine bar! Will definitely be going back. This would be a great date spot.

Patrick F.

Yelp
Outstanding service, a formidable array of wine and cheese; but no beer. I went in search of craft beer to take back to Georgia for my beer geek son in law. Alas, no beer, but the clerk immediately discerned my plight and called around to learn where I might find the particular (and hard to find small batch) malty beverage which prompted my quest, while I happily sampled the various cheeses offered. Great success!! He entered into my iPhone the proper grid coordinates for Beverage Warehouse, where I found exactly that for which I was seeking. Thank you, Daedalus! I shall return for wine and cheese. But not for beer.

Robert L.

Yelp
Excellent wine and cheese shop and wine bar. The shop has a great selection including local products that are hard to find, such as Orb Weaver cheese and wines from Iapetus and Garagista, and the staff give great advice. House-made pimiento cheese is in a class by itself. The bar is very pleasant and has good A/C if it's a hot day.

Wine shops, in my mind, have always been a haven for the upper echelon of society. A place where only those that derive from the finest of pedigrees can sip and deliberate while noshing on and assortment of fine cheese and dehydrated fruits. The thing is that I enjoy wine and although I can feign a vast understanding of this world that encompasses literally thousands of grapes from thousands of regions spanning our globe, a real wine connoisseur would see right through me. I'm not one for pretending, but I'm also not going to drink shit wine that's mass produced and loaded with chemicals and fillers. I visit Montreal frequently with dining being my sole purpose. An amazing food experience can be elevated to a whole other level when paired with the right wine and the wine lists in Montreal are crafted for this very purpose. I came back from a visit and was determined to serve a similar caliber wine in the comfort of my own home; something this special must be shared. So I dusted off my pride and accepted the fact that I was going to walk into a world where I didn't really belong... Daedalus. Much to my surprise I didn't feel unwelcome or out of place in the least bit, in fact, quite the contrary. The staff was incredibly warm and welcoming. So, right then and there, I put to rest my preconceived notion that I needed to flash my sommelier badge or be friends with Owen Roe to step into a wine shop. The staff at Daedalus is astute in all things wine and I would encourage you to engage with them on any level. Your interest is their passion. They have exemplary customer service and create an open environment that is completely free of pretension. The wine selection is superb and with their assistance you will be learning and truly appreciating some of the finest wines available. They offer a great deal of rare small batch imports and work with wineries that use traditional methods and practice sustainability. I find the price variance to be quite good, offering flexibility on the wallet while maintaining exceptional quality. We shop here often enough for me to say confidently, they will not steer you wrong. I think you should get in there, and then pick up some fine cheese and dehydrated fruits... you'll be so glad you did.

I was here two days ago and had a wonderful time - really cool and vibrant place on both the retail (cheese & wine) and restaurant side. Server (forgot her name) was excellent and very well informed about the type of wine and how it would go with what we were thinking vis a vis the food. She was very open to us trying glasses to see if we liked it. The food was excellent - great variety of small plates - that had a wide variety of flavors, ethnic background and geography. Talked a little bit with the cook (Michael) who had interesting stories and ideas about the dishes. The charcuterie board was among the best i have ever had as some of the sausage was made at the shop. Also, the pasta dish was really really good. I think they change the menu on a regular basis so there is always something interesting but make sure you ask the server what he/she recommends as they are knowledgeable and best way to experience this innovative cuisine in Burlington.

Extremely amazing food & wine. Maybe a bit over priced but worth it for a special evening

Such a lovely experience at Dedalus! Brittany, the Wine Director of Dedalus was beyond helpful and attentive. She thoroughly explained their menu items and the wine pairings to go with it. As outsiders visiting the area, she gave us a ton of local recommendations as well. The outside patio was lovely and the food was pleasant. We will be visiting again next time we're in town. Thank you!

The most fantastic selection of wines in town with knowledgeable wine associates. I've never been guided wrong by staff reccs here. In addition, they have a great selection of cheese and charcuterie. In warm weather, the Burlington location does a nice outdoor dining popup for Covid times. The new Stowe location is also great and has a very pretty store. The pastry chef at Stowe is straight up genius and I'm addicted to the olive oil and saffron loaf! All the other pastries are also spectacular and the fried to order croquettes at the Stowe location are so yummmm! So why the loss in one star? Two reasons: They are heavily Kermit Lynch influenced for wine selection and it makes me a bit sad that they don't carry smaller, more interesting labels The Stowe location really needs to up their Covid safety for food. They often leave pizzas, pastries, bread uncovered on the counter and I've seen customers cough on them, touch them with bare hands (not to buy but just touch), and stand over them breathing. This really makes me super nervous and I don't understand why they leave food out in the open during these times. Other than that, Dedalus is one of the best things in town (both Stowe and Burlington)

Was a great diversion from the craft beer scene! Wine,cheese,charcuterie were outstanding as was the atmosphere. The retail shop was impressive and had many of the items we tasted in the wine bar. Wish we had a place like this back home! Look forward to telling our friends about this place!

My husband and I love this place. The wine is great. Everything at the wine bar is delicious even things as simple as the bread and butter! The classes are amazing along with the wine and cheese experts.
