The editorial take
Far Away Wine and Provisions pairs a 450+ bottle retail shelf with a rotating cast of small-production, family-owned wines from across the globe. The all-day happy hour at $6.99 a glass makes esoteric sips approachable, while a $10 corkage fee encourages drinking from the shelf on-site. Co-owners Chris French and Pat Jasmin, both wine industry veterans, steer a program that locals consistently call fantastic and unique.
