The new Urban Wine & Spirits is now open

Urban Wine & Spirits — going now as Urban Artisan Wine & Craft Spirits — has debuted on the SW corner of First Avenue and Third Street ... steps away from the shop's previous location... (thanks to Marjorie Ingall for the photos!)
As previously noted, a wine bar is also in the works for the storefront... ownership says that the wine bar, set to debut in the spring, will have a separate entrance on the Third Street size. 

Meanwhile, the shop will be hosting tastings and events once it's safer to do so.

Jorge Arias, a partner in The Sampler in Bushwick, opened Urban Wine & Spirits here in March 2014. 

Wine store hours: Monday-Thursday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., with an 11 p.m. close on Fridays and Saturdays. Sunday hours: noon to 9 p.m.

    I remember when this site used to make fun of pretentious businesses that has anything artisan(al) or organic, or lux in their establishments name. Ever since it has become an "award-winning" blog, this blog has become a brand ambassador for the very thing this site was poking fun at when it first started. Define hypocricy or a sell-out.

    Urban Wines is hardly a pretentious business. Try it some time. The people in there are really nice. I'm happy they've expanded, especially in this economic climate.

    EVGrumps: "You are sell-out for reporting this, because I think this business is pretentious!"

    Unbelievable!
