Hello and happy Monday! We’ve got some great news today – there’s a fantastic new wine shop at Wharfside Village, and we promise you’re going to love it!
Island Cork – the great little wine shop that opened up behind Mongoose Junction back in 2013 – is now located at Wharfside Village. The new store is much larger than the old location, and owner Paul Tsakeres now offers a pretty fantastic selection of artisan cheeses and meats in addition to fine wines.
Island Cork even has a small bar inside, making it a perfect spot to do a tasting or perhaps hang out for a few hours. There’s some construction happening outside right now (we told you about a month or so back about the construction happening at Wharfside – click here to read all about it), but as soon as that’s done, there’ll be a nice little seating area outside as well.
Island Cork sells authentic wines from around the world ranging in price from $17 and up. The $17 bottles are a great value, Paul said. Spend between $25 and $27, and you can get a terrific bottle of wine. Those with a price point of $35 and up are fantastic, Paul said.
Paul describes the new spot as being friendly, welcoming, elegant and chic. It’s a place to have fun, he said, and perhaps learn something too.
Island Cork is open seven days a week from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Be sure to check it out the next time you’re in town.
Congratulations Paul! Can’t wait to visit. See you soon.
Best wishes to you in your new venture. We will definitely see you in june
. We stopped by the other day. As usual Paul was knowledgeable, the wine selection was good with a range of price points. He has some nice sipping rums too
Always enjoy popping by for a nice bottle and now we’ll have a little cheese to go with our Vino – So nice! Can’t wait for our next visit! CONGRATS in your new spot! 🙂
We stopped by to find some reasonably priced good wines with some friends. Paul did a wonderful job pointing out some reasonably priced great wines. Wishing him all the best in the new location. Will definitely be stopping by in the future. 🙂
