I don't think there is another place like this in Seattle; the wines by the glass are priced well and are not the usual suspects, and they have beer you never see at a bar (e.g., Hair of the Dog Adam & Doggie Claws, Vuuve, McChouffe) I also noticed the staff was very knowledgable about wine, but without an ounce of pretension. The retail side ranged from bargain whites to high-end Bordeaux (1990 Chateau Palmer!) It's a really cool concept that seems to be taking off; the place was packed a few weekends ago.
