Taste Wine Bar and Cafe, Common Vines Wine Shop to Open in Downtown Boston

An "urban tasting room" is a couple of months away from debuting in downtown Boston--and the people behind it will be opening a wine shop as well.

According to a job post within the bostonchefs.com site, Taste Wine Bar & Cafe is planning to open on Summer Street in June, with the place offering wine by the glass, bottle or wine flights, wine-based cocktails, craft beer, cheese and charcuterie, and some other small snacks. The listing mentions that classes and tastings will be offered as well, and an earlier post from the Boston Hospitality and Tourism Industry Blog indicates they will have a connection to the upcoming Common Vines wine shop across the street.

The address for this soon-to-open spot in downtown Boston is Taste Wine Bar & Cafe, 101 Summer Street, Boston, MA, 02110 while the address for Common Vines wine shop is 100 Summer Street.

[June 27 update: Eater Boston states that Common Vines is now open, while Taste Wine Bar and Cafe will open sometime this summer.]

[August 17 update: A tweet from @DTownBostonBID indicates that Taste Wine Bar and Cafe will have an open house tomorrow (Friday, August 18) that previews the new spot, and its grand opening will be on Monday, August 21.]
