Vin ATL Wineshop and Tasting Room Slated to Open in Edgewood

Weekly wine tastings, plenty of varietals, and outdoor live music coming soon.

Dwight Cunningham is bringing Vin ATL, a wine shop and tasting room, to Edgewood, at 1454 La France Street, the Atlanta Business Chronicle first reported.

“We do not have a confirmed opening date, as we are waiting for permitting from the city to begin construction,” Cunningham told What Now Atlanta in an email Monday. “Our hope is to open in late spring.” 

Cunningham co-founded the Roswell Wine Festival in 2012. And then in March 2020, he seized the opportunity of having extra time during the pandemic to focus on a business plan for a wine shop.

“We are creating a mid-century modern environment, with seating up to 15 indoors with additional outside seating,” Cunningham said. “In addition, we will have a record player and vinyl for customers to play while shopping or enjoying a flight.”

During Vin ATL’s wine tastings, customers can try flights before purchasing a bottle or two. Each flight consists of three, three-ounce tastes, and there will be six to eight flights available.
