Holly & OTV’s team will taste over 100 wines most weeks, in search of the 10-15 new selections that supplement the ones we’ve sold through!

Tasting guests raise a glass!

Holly Donnelly Owner of Off The Vine WineshopGreat timing brought Holly to visit OTV in the same week that Becky was taking over from the shop’s founder Wendy Betka.

   Holly had stopped in and the three started chatting about wines they liked and wineries they had visited. Holly had previously lived in Berkeley, CA and was a regular visitor to wine country close by! So, the stars aligned and before leaving the shop Holly had accepted a part time job, and a couple of bottles to celebrate her new adventure with husband Marius! 

"Drink for Fun, Taste to Learn"

Groups, Events and Tastings

  Off The Vine has a separate “Tasting & Events” space right next door, we call The Cellar! We schedule all of our weekly tastings here, and when not busy with that, it is available for small group meetings, events & trade tastings to.

   Our Tastings are social in nature, generally two hours, six wines with light charcuterie & snacks, each one will focus on Wines, Whiskies or Beers, and occasionally even a little of both! (Ask about our Bubbles N Barrels event!)

We do a deep dive in to a specific producer, region, style or brand, comparing & contrasting tastes from throughout the world. Tickets for these public events can be purchased online, click here to open a tab with our Events page! 

Off The Vine is a favorite for speakers that join us regularly to lead tastings, specialists in specific countries & regions, winegrowers makers and whiskey masters, visiting Texas will many times start or end right here before catching flights at DFW minutes from Grapevine. 

The space is conversation friendly so most of our discussions are table side rather than, allowing speakers to adapt to each guest’s knowledge, inquiries and interests.

Off The Vine’s Tastings  are regularly offered :

  • Wednesday Night Wine Tastings (Weekly)*
  • Sunday Bubbles Tasting (Monthly Jan-Oct)
  • Holiday Bubbles Sundays (Weekly Nov+Dec)
  • Whiskey Tastings Twice per month.

This Is Where We Work

A Small Space Filled With Happy

Cellar Club Selection

We Learn Wine By Tasting!

            Our shop’s monthly wine club is different than most, in that you get to taste all the levels and then make your selection for the month, which means you know what’s in the bottles you purchase, you are familiar with the taste & what you’d like to enjoy it with! It also encourages our Cellar Club Members to spread their vino-wings, explore and stretch a little and taste wines that perhaps they would pass on the shelf and never know about. 

Learn more about our CELLAR CLUB, and the members’ benefits that include case discounts from first bottle, and special pricing on gifts, baskets & accessories too

Testimonials

Sweet reviews from our customers

I wandered into Off The Vine on one of my regular business visits to Grapevine, and have been a regular customer every trip since! Holly & Cilla know my tastes, generally have a couple of bottles put aside for me and entertain me with their great reasons for suggesting these ones! Delicious everytime, business travel is fun again at least when I get to come back to Grapevine!

Clark Smith Customer

Who knew wine could be this much fun! I moved to Main Street in Grapevine and enjoy my stroll to local shops and restaurants almost daily, highlights of the week though are tasting wines with the OTV Team! Holly enjoys showing off the newest selections and explaining where they come from. I've learned so much and gotten to know so many new people too!

Lucy Winston Customer

I travel to wine country regularly, I am a member of great wine clubs in four states, but my home wine shop is Holly Donnelly's Off The Vine in Grapevine! When I am looking for a specific wine or suggestions to go with dinner I stop by or call the Shop! Brilliant every time!

Tommy Alphard Customer
