About Us

Founded in 2019, The Pairing is devoted to providing the best possible wine experience for its customers. It didn’t take long for The Pairing the pivot and become the space that the neighborhood needed during the stresses that followed as the city shut down around it. While the wine bar went dark for months, the retail space remained open and until people were safe gathering again. Since the return of the wine bar, The Pairing has become a special place where people can be together over live music and incredible drinks.

We are a liquor store in the front with a full bar in the back, and have a growing live music culture and scene. We have the ability to offer the opening of bottles from the shelf, pour-by-the glass, education about wine and spirit flights, offer a large rotating beer selection, and have an impressive and rapidly growing whiskey list. The Pairing also offers a culinary program fashioning some of the best charcuterie boards in town!
