Warm up with some wine at Pinot, the wine superstore in Old City. The Wine School of Philadelphia will hold its first class, "Wine 101" on Wednesday. It's a primer on how to choose and enjoy wine, and it's at Pinot's Downstairs, a tasting grotto in an intimate, wine cellar-like environment.

Build and Store It!
Wine cellar, you say? Even if you barely have room in your apartment for yourself and an overweight cat? According to pinot owner Dan Soskin, there's a wine storage solution—from wall racks to tasting tables with built-in storage—for every sized space. Learn what options are available for your budget and space limitations. (My grandmom wants to know if they have a storage solution for her burgeoning collection of half-gallon jugs of Carlo Rossi.)

Lush Life: Sip Code
By Mara Zepeda
In 2005 the Sideways effect overtook the wine industry (and countless cocktail conversations). The popular film was credited with increasing California pinot noir sales by 70 percent, and disparaging merlot such that chuckles abound when it’s ordered.
Two and a half years after the movie’s release and more than 2,800 miles from Santa Barbara County, we Philadelphians continue to feel the reverberations with the opening of Pinot, a new shop at Second and Market in Old City that offers oenophiles “everything but the grape.”

4.5 out 5 stars
I like Pinot.
I've already procured a handful of funky items from the boutique, both useful (the "Rabbit" corkscrew is seriously worth that $$ price tag, I kid you not) & decorative (a fun wooden retro-mod wine rack).
