Wine shops in Wilmington, NC?

WINE TALK

Hi all,
My folks are moving to the Wilmington North Carolina area and I wanted to see if anyone has any recommendations for wine shops/restaurants with particularly good wine lists in that area for when I visit.
Thanks,
Matt

The best wine shop is Red Bank Wine, the Mayfaire Town Center near the Wrightsville Beach. The Wine Sampler is also a good wine store that is in-town (just not quite as high-end) near Independence Mall.

As far as restaurants, my favorites are: Manna (downtown), Deluxe (downtown), Jerry’s Food Wine & Spirits, Port Land Grille, Crow Hill (downtown–great food, limited wine list). There is also a new wine bar downtown, called The Fortunate Glass.

+1 on Matt’s rec for Manna restaurant and for Red Bank Wine. The cuisine is well done and the service is excellent and very friendly. Mayfaire Way is a very nice commercial center, in general, too.
