Twisted Grape Wine owners Kathleen and Steven “Bruno” Windham and Debbie Thomas wanted to bring back the sense of community with their new wine bar and restaurant that opened earlier this month in Shalimar. There are no TVs, just wine, some beer, good food and an eclectic style that encourages guests to talk to one another.

Twisted Grape has about 30 different wines available now and the owners plan to update their wine list regularly. For those non-wine drinkers, Twisted Grape also has some sparkling wine cocktails and beers.
