This is a great food and drink experience. The space is an open warehouse decorated in lounge chic, a nice mix of sophisticated and industrial. The have a small but enjoyable wine list and a larger vermu cocktail list. We had a delightful rose, a jamón serrano sandwich with both savory and sweet elements, and stuffed eggplant appetizer, which was kind of like an eggplant bruschetta. This is a very fun place for a drink, a bite, and some mingling at the bar. read more

It was my first time going to The Wine Collective. We went when it was cold outside (like 18 degrees), so it was a bit chilly inside...BUT they have heaters above, you just need to sit near one of them. We had a cocktail (Burnt Flamingo) and it was delicious!! I generally like sweet drinks, and my fiancé also likes sweet drinks but not as sweet. This was perfection! Sweet but not too sweet and just right in flavor. I hadn't had Vermouth before, so it was great to try that. However, what stole the show was the Jamon Serrano sandwich! WOWWW!!! As my fiancé said, "this is the best sandwich I've had in Baltimore!"" And pretty much every day since then, she's been thinking about that sandwich and when we get to eat that deliciousness again. Highly recommend! read more

My first time here and I had a great time. The staff was great at giving wine recommendations. That charcuterie board was flavorful and savory. Plenty of spacious parking in the parking lot no payment needed. Definitely will go back for a wine tour and more charcuterie. read more

This place was way cooler than expected! It's located inside of a building with other vendors (coffee shop, ice cream, distillery). It also has its own parking lot, with plenty of free parking! Always a win when you are visiting a city! The set up was cozy and rustic, with cute decor for Valentine's Day. We ordered wine flight and bread and tapenade to go with it. The wines were pretty good..but the bread and tapenade...best bread appetizer I've ever ordered! Paired very well with the flight. The bar tenders were also very attentive even though it was a busy holiday weekend. Will definitely visit this place again next time we pass through Baltimore! Perfect place for a date night or girls night out! read more

The wine collective was a nice vibe. Very spacious and the design was open to show the instruments used for production. We came for the vintage film event showing Serial Mom, which was definitely something different to do. The food options were minimal, but we got a couple of sandwiches. I got the eggplant sandwich, which I wasn't a super fan of (between the bread texture and the overall flavor combo) but the chips were good! Service was friendly and above and beyond! read more

If you are a fan of dry wine this is your new favorite spot. I had a flight including 3 sparkling and one white wine. We had a seat at the barrel which was still very intimate. They also have card and board games which adds to the experience. The winery is located in a warehouse where they actually make the wine. Surrounded by other companies such as rock climbing, brewery, ice cream and more. read more

We went to The Wine Collective to pick up a bottle of their amazing Rosé Vermouth. When we saw how cool the place was inside, we decided to sit at the bar and try a flight of their wines. It's a great deal - a generous pour of 4 wines for $25; they were all nuanced and lovely. The sparkling Balt Nat was my favorite. We also ordered the smoked whitefish salad with pickled onions and homemade chili crisp served with delicate rye crackers. It was delicious! They had a live band playing jazz, which added to the already wonderful ambiance. read more

I'd visited The Wine Collective before, however it was for a Yelp Elite event. The second visit, 9/8, was for a cooking class. Interestingly enough, both situations were held in the same back space of The Wine Collective - it is a cool spot for small gatherings. That said, due to eating what I cooked during class, I didn't sample any of The Wine Collective's food. I did peruse their menu, however, and want to go back and eat a meal there. I'm not much of a wine nor cocktail drinker, but I was delighted to find The Wine Collective has an assortment of NA drinks, all at $5!!! Such a reasonable price! Other places expect you to pay the same amount as if alcohol is in the drink! So I went with the Mellow Fellow NA drink - it wasn't the taste I was going for, but that was OK because it was only $5! The vibe in there is dark and rustic, prolly great for dates. The staff there was super friendly. Will return. read more

I used to come all the time, but because of the distance it's been a while since I had returned. It had been a several years and it looked just the same as I remembered there was plenty of parking on a Sunday afternoon. I sat at the bar, I was immediately greeted and given water in a menu. I didn't have any food, but the food did look amazing based on what my neighbors got. They definitely expanded the food menu since I had been there last. The place has a sultry vibe of like dark lighting, but with candle lighting at the tables. There were several big parties in the back that had their own tables and I know there's an automatic gratuity for them. A special promotion for Sundays for groups of six or more get a buy one get one free bottle. The bartender in eligible about the processing that they do in house, but also with the wine and vermouth list I got a tasting of a white, red blend, rosé, and a vermouth for $25. I did like my flight and I was able to read my book. I would definitely recommend this place for groups or girls nights or just to read at the bar. It was very nice and friendly. I will say it's a bit pricey, but that's pretty normal for the DMV. read more

I think The Wine Collective was the first spot that had tinned fish in the city. I first came here in 2021. I went recently for some wine on a gorgeous day and then went back for a pilates and wine event. There's a private event space for dining and for a workout in the back (I will say the floor is a bit too cold for a class but a fun outing nonetheless). The staff is always so nice and they bring you a bottle of water so you can stay hydrated. The wine is unique - they make all their wines, and some are better than others, but what's special is the vermouth. They do good vermouth spritzes and their offerings of wine is never more than $50 a bottle making it a very affordable place for local wines. Such a fun spot in the Union Mill market area. It's at the furthest end and parking can be challenging, which always blows my mind. read more

The boards curated are amazing. My personal favorite is the bread and tapenade. Honestly, this is filling enough. All of the staff are wonderful with great knowledge and amazing experience to share about the wine. The ability to see the wine being distilled is amazing! An absolute joy to sip wine (especially the Peregrine or Sweet Vermouth Rose) while working. The vibes are immaculate, definitely bring your friends! Also, as someone who went to the same alma marter (UC Davis) as the winemaker John, he definitely knows how to make delicious wine! read more

Ah, another visit to The Wine Collective. I came here with one of my friends from DC after she specifically requested their charcuterie board with the candied salmon. Seriously, it never gets old. To my delight, I was told that they have gluten free crackers! They were kind enough to give my friend plenty of bread and me a generous bowl of the gluten free crackers. I had no trouble eating the cheese and meats on their own before because it's just that good but now that I know they have a gluten free option, it's a real gamechanger. I also tried the caesar salad (sans croutons) and the octopus (requested they blowtorch it for me for an extra crisp). We both loved everything! The garlic sauce with the octopus has really grown on me since the last time I tried it. The staff is always so incredibly friendly and ready to find you something you'll love. I mentioned that I love spritzes but when I tried theirs, I thought it was too sweet. One of the staff members suggested I try it with their dry vermouth instead and it was absolutely perfect. They even remembered that I prefer the dry vermouth during my next visit. Gotta love that. Thank you to the staff - John, Felipe, and many more - for always making me feel at home! read more

The Wine Collective - Charcuterie board with 5 options and plenty of fixings - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

What a treat to get taken out to my favorite place for my birthday. We had a reservation for 4 of us and what a night of indulgence! Three tasting flights, 1 cocktail, 1 glass of wine, two entrees, one charcuterie board, and two appetizers later.....$240 outing. Worth. Every. Penny. I always order the Smoked Fish Dip when I'm here. You really can't get this delicacy anywhere else. It's smooth and salty. Yummers. The boards can add up depending on what you're craving. Gratuity was included for a party of four - 20%. Alcohol tax also added almost $10. This place is special and unique - plan on spending some money. The wines/drinks are excellent and the tapas they offer are delicious. For my flight I enjoyed the 2021 Petinay, 2020 Vivandiere, Vermu Rose and Vermu Sweet. I absolutely love the Vermu Rose. Amazing. The best part of this place is the ambiance. It's in a warehouse, but when you enter it's like you've stepped into a dark and intimate setting with fairy lights and wonderful scents. read more

My fav place to go for some amazing local wine and great charcuterie boards everyone there is amazing ! I love the vibes

100/10 people, vibes and amazing food. Perfect date night!!!! Very knowledgeable staff

I visited The Wine Collective for a small group wine tasting. There were about three parties or groups in the wine tasting. The wine tasting and tour is part of being a wine club member. It lasts about 45 minutes. The owner explained about the grapes and the thought process of what he was trying to make. In addition, he talked about the science behind why things happen a certain way and behind wine making in general. He is extremely knowledgeable and went as far as explaining how the weather affects certain grapes. We were even able to sample some of the unfinished wines just to get an idea and comparision. We tasted 5 or 6 wines during the tasting then stayed to order food and more wine. After the tasting, we got tapas for dinner. I loved the bread that they had. It was charred and had a smoky flavor, with butter and salt on it. We also got the eggplant and the smoked fish dip. The dishes were all incredibly delicious and went well with the wine we ordered. The setting is similar to a brewery where you see all the vats. It is a big and open space. There was a good amount of seating and parking available. We sat at the bar for our food and drinks and the service was awesome. The wines were different from ones I have had before as they came from different grapes. The bartender said the grapes are all grown within 150 miles of the winery. There was even a hazy wine and it had a hazy color to it. I loved my first visit here and can't wait to go back! This place is perfect for a night out with friends or for a date night! read more

Love this place which is a hidden gem at least to me and my friends. Cool space, relaxed vibe but elegant setting, delicious food, checks all the boxes! Good for a date at the bar, a party and more. Only quibble is bartender not so knowledgeable about wine - when I ordered the bubbly house made pet net - they served me a dark unbubbly glass of stuff - I pointed it out and they said oh it was the end of the bottle and served a new lovely bubbly glass. So that wasn't cool - wine is your thing!. Otherwise unique excellent place that plays John water movies, has cooking classes and boxing classes! Should be packed. read more

Excellent hidden gem in Union Collective! I've been to the Wine Collective several times now and each visit has been truly lovely. They are located at the end of the Union Collective, near Movement gym. The space is huge -- there are a few comfy chairs spread throughout for casual lounging, bar seating, tables for formal dining, and then a few private spaces that can be reserved for gatherings. The place has a very cozy and inviting atmosphere. The wines are delicious and the flight is an excellent deal so I highly recommend you try that at your first visit! The menu also has a nice selection of food which surpassed my expectations. All the apps are noteworthy! I'm also very impressed by how friendly and helpful the bartenders and everyone else working behind the scenes are -- last week our group included a toddler and he was invited to "help" in the back by the wine barrels! read more

Came here for a yoga and wine event and it was awesome. I previously learned of the wine collective during a Yelp event and couldn't wait to return. I love that it's a collective.

My friends and I paid a visit to The Wine Collective to catch up after work. We went on Wednesday and there was live music which made the vibes even better. We ordered a bottle of wine (15% off wine bottles) to share, as well as charcuterie, smoked fish dip, and the smoked salmon melt. The Smoked Salmon melt wasn't really a melt in my opinion. It wasn't warm and there also wasn't any cheese as described on the menu. The bread was soft and buttery. The amount of mayo was a bit overwhelming, but overall the sandwich was solid. The smoked fish dip was good and the charcuterie was perfect (we ended up ordering another). The service was great. Everyone was attentive and welcoming. I'll for sure be back. I'd say 3.5 stars! read more

I had a great experience at this local winery recently. From the moment I stepped in, I was captivated by the sophisticated ambiance that enveloped the entire place. The tastefully designed interior, with its warm lighting and elegant decor, created an atmosphere that was both inviting and refined. They had a great selection from crisp whites to bold reds. The knowledgeable staff guided us through each pour, sharing insights and recommendations that enhanced my experience. The small plates were truly exceptional. The menu was thoughtfully curated, with a variety of delectable dishes that perfectly complemented the wines. From artisanal cheeses to charcuterie boards, it was a good selection. The attention to detail and the quality of ingredients used were evident in every dish. The staff was attentive and friendly, ensuring that every guest felt welcomed and well-cared for. Whether you're a wine connoisseur or a casual enthusiast, this place has something for everyone. I highly recommend visiting this local winery if you're in search of a place that combines outstanding wines, delectable small plates, and a sophisticated ambiance. It's an oasis in the city. Parking is a breeze and the location was easy to find. Loved it! read more

Came in 02/2022 for an impromptu date night, celebrated my birthday in the barrel room 03/2022, another date night in between. Visited tonight 02/2023... please change the food selection. A little more variety would be greatly appreciated esp if the wine selection has not changed . The Wizard is on its 2nd batch from what we were told, the Syrah was removed for a Chardonnay varietal? Still delicious. Not a big fan of soft cheeses so manchego is the only option. Charcuterie will be charcuterie. I do appreciate the cured/tinned fish options. The octopus has changed over time, portions are smaller, I think the price went up, purée underneath (old serving pictured) Today I ordered the Caesar, doused in a heavy mayo based dressing. Less salt maybe? I love what wine collective is doing, I just need more. read more

I was here for a private event, but experienced the full range of drinks available. I must say, their Rose Vermouth with Spritzer is a drink that I could get used to very easily.... It was DELICIOUS. It is locally grown also. The matriarch I spoke to said they have vineyards on the Eastern Shore and in Pennsylvania They offered many small appetizers that were OK, but I'm not even sure if that was catered for the private event, or on a regular menu The location is fantastic. I personally prefer former industrial properties, and they have renovated this particular space very well. I'm planning to stop in during normal hours sometime.... read more

There's just something about The Wine Collective that I love. The staff are really sweet, the live music that was playing when I went reminded me of a South American cafe, and they have this warehouse vibe that's really cool (I also really like the green walls). The wine is great of course, and the food is surprisingly good! Even if you're not into wine I recommend going to try the food. We got one of the "tins" that I swear was scallops but I don't see it on the menu anymore so it's possible that it wasn't that... whatever it was though was good! Also got the tomato and anchovy toast, which was my first time eating anchovies and it was good too!! So unique, I loved it! read more

Found this place online and decided to check it out. Got the torched aioliva (olives) and smoked salmon board. (You order by walking to the bar and they will bring it to you) The olives were ok, but I probably wouldn't order them again. You can really taste that "torched" part and I wasn't that ecstatic about it. The salmon board was interesting. Had pretty big slices of salmon and torched/buttered bread. I honestly hated the taste of the bread and the salmon didn't really seem like it was smoked. Now I don't mind raw salmon, but didn't want to just eat the salmon that way so I ordered a Caesar salad to mix it with. While I'm on the Caesar salad, it's good to mention it didn't come cut up. It was like 5 whole Romain lettuce leafs. Don't get me wrong, it was amazing, but you'll have to cut it all up yourself. (Unless you are ok with biting into a big leaf. Glasses of wine were the best part (of course, it's the wine collective) There was live music which was great and the staff was really friendly. read more

Visited here while in Maryland first off there are so many things to do,visit and see just mins from the harbor so def try and venture out but anyhow I found this place because of the wine lover that I am. It's seems to be a bunch of different places together in this one area but I was just going for The Wine Collective. It was a very nice place. Pretty much a winery inside. They have a small outside area. We sat inside. I ordered the flight which is a choice of 4 different wines they were all very good. We didn't eat there because we had just come from eating however my boyfriend ordered the octopus appetizer which he wasn't fond of. Overall a good experience. A perfect day date or a visit with girlfriends for some wine and chill. The food Menu is small bites I just wish they had more of a selection but the wine definitely good read more

The Wine Collective is definitely in an interesting location, tucked away in what feels like a warehouse space. Parking wasn't terrible by Baltimore standards, which was a pleasant surprise since there was a dedicated lot. Walking in, the vibe is very "industrial-chic meets hipster cool," but the music was extremely loud,so much so that it was hard to hear the people next to me, which made conversation pretty difficult. I didn't try the food, though the menu seemed to lean heavily into trendy, niche offerings like canned fish and unique flavor pairings that didn't appeal to me personally. More variety or accessible options might help broaden their appeal. As for the drinks, this is where things fell flat. I ordered the Balt-Nat Citron, which was honestly rancid after the first sip. I also tried their take on a "mule," made with their wine, and it was tough to get through. The frozen drink was the most palatable, mostly because it was very sweet and sugar-heavy. Service-wise, the bar seemed understaffed. It took a while to get drinks, though I understand that's not entirely avoidable and didn't find it overly frustrating, just worth noting. Overall, I get the concept and can see the potential, especially for people into the artsy, experimental wine scene. But for me, the wine didn't deliver, the drinks weren't enjoyable, and the food offerings didn't entice. With more drink options and a refined balance between vibe and substance, it could be much better. Glad I tried it but I doubt we will ever go back. read more

Got to check out The Wine Collective last weekend! You definitely get the "Wow" effect as soon as you walk in. Cool mood lighting, wine barrels, and wine silos everywhere! COVID wise, everything was super safe. Staff took temps at door and they asked guests to put masks on when staff was at the table. All the wines are made in the restaurant which is fun. The waitress told us that the grapes are sourced within an 80 mile radius, so everything is local! Our group decided to start with vermouth cocktails then switch over to wine for dinner. The cocktails were really good and fun! We ordered a bunch of things to share-- They have little "toasts" (they call them something different that I am blanking right now), but we got the shredded duck with chimichurri and a fig/honey one. Both super good! We also got some charcuterie and cheese to share. Their boards are beautiful! I will definitely be back! I know my fiance would love their selection of tinned fish (sounds strange, but apparently they have really upscale tinned fish served w/ toasts!), so I want to bring him back. read more

I honestly hate to leave this spot a bad review. My best friend and I have been coming here since the day it opened. From when the owner worked behind the bar and would serve us cheesecake he brought from his family for us to have for dessert. Since then, we have had great times here with lots of great bartenders. Today, it has been horrible. Two female bartenders who acted like we were a complete nuisance simply by our presence. Slow and nonexistent service where the bartenders paid 0 attention to us. Glasses remained empty to the point where I had to chase a sour faced looking bartender down as she angrily cleared tables at 8PM as if the place was closing. Once I chased her down for a refill she rolled her eyes and then came by and asked us "what we wanted." We asked for refills and she begrudgingly did so. Finally we just asked for the check and I am sitting here writing this for the past 10 minutes as she has gone missing and won't pick up our cards to pay the tab. It's unfortunate that tip seems to already be included (which she has not mentioned to us at all)--because I would not be able to give her a tip in good conscience given this terrible service. read more

A nice little spot if you enjoy wine. I came down to the union collective to go to Union craft brewery but there was a long wait to get in so I chose to explore the collective. When I arrived there was no wait and I took a seat at the bar. Their menu is very limited but they do have a good selection of wine. A lot of the food selections are potted seafood or canned seafood. Not really my cup of tea I did order a couple glasses of wine and I enjoyed them. I also ordered shredded duck with chimichurri sauce on toast. It came out pretty good as an appetizer but not a lot to eat. So I was still hungry after partaking. The bar tender was friendly and willing to explain their different varieties of wine they had. He was also kind enough to offer a novice like myself some samples until I could decide what I wanted. A good place to come if you want to learn more about wine. read more

I love the wine collective!! I've been here a few times, and this is definitely one of my go-to spots for taking friends when they visit. It's located within the Union collective, which has a bunch of other really fun places like Union Craft Brewery, a climbing gym, an ice cream shop, and more! It's easy to find and the parking lot is pretty large. As far as wines go, I'm not sure I have the most sophisticated palette to be able to tell a good wine from a great wine, but all I know is I've enjoyed all the wines I've tried and the staff are helpful when trying to decide. As far as food goes, anytime I visit I always get a charcuterie board. They have a variety of choices of cheeses (they have a really good goat cheese if you like goat cheese, if not don't get the goat cheese lol), fish (the candied salmon is my fave), and meats (I recommend the jamon serrano). Everything I've tried is very tasty, and the fig jam that comes with is outstanding. Finally, it's just a really cool atmosphere. I love the decor and how you can see some of the wine barrels they're working with. Great vibes overall. read more

Came here to celebrate a friends birthday and had a wonderful time. it was about 15 of us and we had plenty of space to sit together. We went on a Sunday around 1:00PM. The staff already had our tables in place. Our waitress did a wonderful job keeping up with all of or orders and bringing them out in a timely fashion. With our big party, I never felt neglected. For my first drink, I had the BURNT FLAMINGO which was vermú vermouth, burnt sugar, amarena cherry, and a lemon twist. It was delicious. After that, i decided to stick with wine...cause why not? We ordered 2 bottles of the Isodora rose. I really light semi-sweet wines but this was good enough. Not really sweet at all but still yummy. For food, I ordered the SMOKED SALMON MELT which was alaskan smoked coho salmon, kewpie mayo, melted manchego, pickled onions, ají amarillo, greens, on brioche. It was sooooooo good. Beware of the roof of the mouth cutting bread lol but seriously was worth it. The vibes were nice. Good wine drinking music, calming atmosphere. It was great. This place is easy to miss but well worth the visit. read more

I couldn't quite visualize where this was located so I definitely made a reservation for a girl's outing to the winery. The winery has a space in a commercial/industrial appearing building which means it shares a parking lot. I'm sure timing is everything with the parking and we found spaces mid-afternoon on a Sat. However, when we left there were hardly any spaces left. Since it wasn't full when we got there, we chose to sit at the bar. This was a bonus because it was cold in that huge room and there were some heaters near the bar. We were still cold but they helped a little. We each got a flight, which came with nice pours, and we shared an assorted board of treats. Of my 4 wine choices, surprisingly, the medium bodied red (Viognier) was my favorite. Full bodied is usually my go-to but it lost this time. We all agreed the board was delicious. Definitely recommend the smoked salmon and valdeón cheese. Definitely going back. It's cute and perfect for a date or group outing. It'll stay on my list indefinitely. read more
