Heritage Wines Opened Yesterday in Fort Greene

New wine shop Heritage Wines just opened in Fort Greene at 237 DeKalb Avenue, between Vanderbilt and Clermont avenues. The shop offers both high-value and affordably priced wines from around the world. The owners also plan to host free weekly tastings on Wednesdays and Fridays from 6 pm to 8pm, and Saturdays and Sundays from 2 pm to 4 pm. Each week the tasting will be set to a particular theme. And the owners definitely know their stuff: Charles McMickens, also the owner of The General Greene nearby, as well as Giancarlo Luiggi, previously of Brooklyn Wine Exchange, are behind the business.
