What People Are Saying About Rosso Wine Shop
Featured Review

In Short – Behind a green awning and lacquered red door, this neighborhood retail shop focuses on labels from Italy, France, Spain and California. Emphasizing good values in the $10 to $30 range, patrons can find affordable commercial wines as well as small-production selections. Regional maps and vineyard photos showcase racks of bottles, wine magazines and reference books. The wine bar offers organized tastings throughout the month; the owner also opens a couple of different bottles each day.
Editor's Tips
- Look Good:
- In addition to the regular tastings, the owner also opens a couple different bottles for tasting each day. The shop is located directly next door to the popular local restaurant, Bistro Verdu, which also collaborates on tastings and special wine dinners.
- When to Go:
- The shop holds ongoing educational wine series classes, with topics like California wine and Wines of Italy.

Fantastic neighborhood wine shop and wine bar
by d_zoff1
A friend of mine recommended that I check out Rosso Wine Shop and I am glad I did. They have a great selection of hard-to-find and boutique wines from Italy, France and Spain. Of course there are some nice domestic choices too but their forte is imports. They have a charming wine bar where, on weekends, they taste wines in flights of three for $10 and they often pair up with the bistro next door for food and wine events. The owner is very knowledgable and clearly has the passion for both wine and food. They are located in north Glendale, just a little south of Montrose, making this wine shop a hidden gem for the east side food and wine crowd. And getting there by the 2 freeway is a breeze. Try it you'll like it.
- Pros: Great customer service, very attentive, no wine snobbery
- Cons: None
