Blanchard Family Wines is located in the Dairy Block off of Wazee near Union Station. We went in around the holidays in December and were met with prompt service and very kind servers. The place is set up for groups, parties, or can be just for one or two. They do have a good selection of wines, both whites and reds based off what I saw from their menu. They also had a wine cocktail that was very tasty, though this was seasonal. Looking to try out some new wines, Blanchard's is your place.

Good selection of wines and ability to choose a pre-determined flight or a combination of any of their wines on the menu into a custom flight. Charcuterie board was unique and satisfying. Highly recommend stopping by and sitting facing out into the alley to people watch.

First, the wine. Lots of great rotating options to try, reds, whites, rose, sparkling wines,…read morewhatever you'd like. I tend towards red wines, but I've been pleasantly surprised by some of the options outside of my normal comfort zone. The Blanchard wines themselves can be more traditional with neat California wines, and sometimes pleasantly funky with the Colorado grapes. They also highlight other great wines from across the country to uplift other lovely bottles you'd never find otherwise. Isn't that fun? The team here is lovely. They're informed and helpful without feeling snobby or elitist like some winemakers can be. I love to ask "Can I have a flight of your current favorites" and I find a new favorite every time. I've been served by Bre, Paige, Madi, Jencee, Claire, and a few others over the last year, and every single staff member deserves a shoutout of their own. Nothing but great conversation and great service from them. Tonight specifically Jencee rocked a crazy busy day all by herself, and was quick and efficient while being so nice and kind to everyone who walked in the door. That kind of service inspired this review. Finally, the location, right? This is easily the best patio in FoCo, complete with fire pits in the winter and big umbrellas for shade in the summer! It's kinda fun to sit and celebrate in a spot where everyone can see you with your fancy wine and charcuterie! ‍ The interior is cute, the exterior is lovely, what more is there to love? I'm a huge fan of the Exchange area, and I'm so glad Blanchard Family Wines is a part of it. What a gem!
