Naturally good wine.

Gist: (n) simple; the essence

Gist Wine Shop pairs experience with expertise. Owner and sommelier, Mel Guse, has dedicated her work to sharing her love for naturally good wines and other delicious fermented foods and drinks with others. It’s a wine shop with a mission - to help people live their best and most creative lives through exploring the wonderful world of wine. Whether it be in the company of friends or one's own personal journey, we are here to guide you through a selection of wines that are simply good. We believe the "gist" of life is to enjoy and delight in each and every day.
