Maine & Loire is taking the next step in the evolution of their business. Owners Orenda and Peter Hale plan to build out a wine bar and small kitchen in the front portion of their retail shop on Washington Ave. The back part of their space will continue to be a retail wine shop.
The natural wine bar will have seating for about 20 including a small 8-seat bar. They aiming to craft a space that be both a “convivial hangout with the energy we feel when we drink at our favorite places” and a place where people can have direct experience with the natural wines they specialize in.
They hope to launch this new phase of Maine & Loire this winter.
Update: M & L has decided to name the wine bar the Drifter’s Wife.
Best wishes to Orenda and Peter in this expansion into food & beverage service!
