"Little Victory Wine Bar is a natural wine bar founded by husband and wife team, Jeremy Simpson and Kirsten Potenza. It was conceptualized with the idea in mind that small is better. That when we scrape away our modern lives, there is truly nothing better than time spent with family, friends and neighbors, alongside a thoughtful meal and the perfect glass of wine.
Little Victory Wine Bar will offer small plates that emphasize local ingredients and shareable items, like cheese, charcuterie, pickled goods, salads, and tinned fish. The wine selections at Little Victory focus on wines made naturally, from California and abroad. We celebrate the winemakers who treat their grapes and vineyards with care, intermingling organic and biodynamic, regenerative, and other sustainable farming practices with thoughtful winemaking techniques such as the use of wild yeasts, little to no sulfur additions, and zero filtration.
Little Victory will also share the 1,100 square foot space with Always Hungry Grocery + Goods, a small batch and locally supplied curated grocery store."
