We came here on the recommendation of my friend and really had a great time here. From what we gathered, the wine bar seems like a neighborhood joint where a lot of regulars come by and drink some wine, eat some charcuterie and chat the evening away. There were also a bunch of folks who come in and asked JJ for wine suggestions and he will happily find something for you. The wines all seemed to be from smaller producers and not overly expensive. Bar is teeny weeny with maybe 6 or so seats but we didn't have a problem finding a spot. We came on a weekday right before a dinner reservation in the same area. We did a tasting of the different glasses but really loved the tasting of the week - wine from Chateau Potensac from Medoc. I can't recall how much the bottle was but I remember thinking it was a great deal. We are definitely beginners to the wine world so it was nice to get explanations of the different regions for the wines we were tasting. We were the only English speakers in the room but JJ does speak perfect English for those who can't speak a lick of French (me). Oh and for all you Los Angelenos out there, JJ is a hardcore Lakers fan.
