Wine By The Bay

"Every so often you're lucky enough to stumble across a hidden gem. This is one of them. Searching for a wine that's not overly common on shelves brought me to Wine By the Bay. Having met and spoken to Stefano, the proprietor, I will certainly return. We had a great discussion about wine, food and more. It's evident from a short discussion the passion for and knowledge of wine runs deep. As an added surprise we were discussing birthday year wines and Stefano instantly pulled out the first growth I missed on my bday vertical( I will be back for it! ;) ) Looking forward to returning for purchases, tastings and excellent discussion!"

"Always a superb experience with Stefano at Winebythebay both with the wonderful events he promotes as well as the many wine recommendations he has made throughout the past years. Top notch selection, service and information from a true wine Ambassador!"

"Wine by the Bay is my "go to" spot for wine and wine education. When it comes to selection, Stefano always helps me discover wines that sometimes can’t be found in any other wine store in Miami, or where I live in Broward. Stefano always has an interesting story to tell that is filled with good humor and wit. I enjoy learning about the grapes, regions and wine producers. As a food enthusiast, he does not hesitate to help me find the "perfect pairing" for whatever dinner I may be planning. And as someone who loves Italian and French wine, I appreciate the vast selection: whether it be everyday wines or splurge options for special occasions and gift-giving. And, just in case I can't make the trip, I have often used the online shopping and delivery service to purchase wine for business clients. Thanks Wine by the Bay!"

"When I say Stefano knows his stuff… that’s an understatement!!! He is fantastic and his personality only makes the experience better! If you want fantastic conversation, knowledgeable expertise and wonderful recommendations this is your spot!"

"HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! I’ve had the absolute pleasure of getting to know Stefano over the past (18) months through our discussions about Italian wines. Not only is he knowledgeable of history and characteristics of wines from all over Italy and France, Stefano has a true passion! His passion comes out in the way he describes, shares the history, and how the wine is produced. It’s a rare find. If you are looking for unique (great) wines from Italy, Sicily, and France, Wine By The Bay is the place! ***The prices are great too! – Don’t tell Stefano ;-)"
