Sovino Wine Bar & Merchant serves wine by the glass and the bottle both indoors and outdoors.

Whether you’re a visitor or a local resident, Sovino Wine Bar and Merchant is the perfect spot to taste an assortment of wines from Monterey and other regions of California. We carry a wide selection of California wines for purchase, and owner and sommelier Claire Sutton and her experienced staff can guide you through an extraordinary tasting experience.

Located at the north end of Alvarado Street, along the esplanade leading to Custom House Plaza and Fisherman's Wharf, Sovino is ideally located for a post-lunch or happy hour glass of wine with friends or a pre-dinner wine tasting.

Looking for a place to hold a private event? Sovino Wine Bar and Merchant can accommodate 35 people. The space is perfect for birthdays, holiday parties, work events, or wedding showers (to name a few). We would love to work with you to make your occasion memorable. We also welcome you to make reservations for smaller group gatherings such as book clubs and committee meetings.
