TerraCotta Wine Bistro offers a vast array of wines from many countries at reasonable prices. Their aim: to encourage guests to sample new and interesting varietals. Their goal is to promote wines that they feel have been overlooked such as rosé. Co-owner Glenda Griswold says, "We are actually on a mission to get people to drink rosé all year long." They offer 12 by the glass. In addition, they offer over 70 other wines by the glass, more than any other restaurant in town. Wine and food pair well. Menu choices run from nibbles to a three-course prix-fixe meal. Their Le Verre De Vin wine-vac system preserves the wine, preventing oxidation. It also keeps the bubbles in sparkling wines. The mostly small-plate menu is great for pairing wine flights or glasses with the right dish. The knowledgeable staff will suggest the perfect pairings; just ask.
