Derby wine bar set to open in popular Sadler Gate area.....

A new wine bar in Derby is set to open in the city, making it the latest addition to a flourishing hospitality scene. Wine Stories is a wine bar and tasting rooms located on The Strand, and the site of former Bar 56. 
Owner Chris Barlow only took on the site just four weeks ago. Since then major amendments have been made.
These include updates to the toilets, new shelving, and a painstaking deep clean of windows to create a more welcoming aesthetic for customers. 
Hard work will continue over the coming weeks as Wine Stories is set to launch on Friday, July 26, 2024.
On the menu will be a carefully curated wine list that will change according to customers’ palates. World beers, plus spirits including gin, rum, and brandy will also be served. In addition to wine tastings, people can also look forward to whisky and brandy tastings. 
Chris is passionate about wine and is keen to explore people’s stories, memories and connections to their favourite wines. 
He said: “Wine is subjective, whether you usually spend £3, or £300 on a bottle, it’s all down to personal tastes. This is why our wine list will be led by customers, who can tell us what they like, so the list itself is fluid.
“Our wines are special, you won’t be able to get them anywhere else in Derby. Our wines are from growers across the world.
“The idea of Wine Stories is to offer wines that have a story behind them. “I love talking to people, I want to talk to people about wines they love and what they love about it. That’s how I got into wine.” 
Opening days  will be on Friday and Saturday afternoons and evenings. 
Location: Wine Stories - Wine Bar & Tasting Rooms, 5 - 6 The Strand, Derby DE1 1BQ
