ANNOUNCER: ENOTECA SERVES THE BEST THINGS IN LIFE >>>

The front window bears a small neon sign with lazy purple letters. Enoteca Wine Bar serves much more than vino and should be classified as a bistro with strong focus on imported artisan cheeses and an exceptional wine list due to the adjacent Tacoma Wine Merchants. A joint operation of owner Bill Bonnie, the wine shop is connected to Enoteca by double doors. This symbiotic relationship allows for the unique opportunity of purchasing wine in the shop, taking your bottle next door and enjoying it with any number of food items â€" grilled panini, fresh salads, and cheese, fruit, and meat plates, sandwiches and dessert.

The small space is dominated by massive chalkboards that act as larger-than-life menus of white and red wines and an impressive selection of cheese.
