“We are deeply grateful to our loyal customers, staff, and community who have supported us for two decades,” Vanessa Moore, founder of Unwined, said in a release. “This decision wasn’t easy, but it reflects a thoughtful strategy to grow and thrive in new ways. The Belle View location has an exciting future under new leadership, and I am confident they will continue to deliver the high level of service and community engagement that has become our hallmark.”
