Where to Buy Natural Wine in L.A. – Shops

Domaine

Domaine is one of the pioneers of the natural wine movement in L.A. This Hollywood shop has been selling “honest wines” from Europe and the United States for ten years now – and they’re just getting started. Domaine has one of the biggest natural wine selections in Los Angeles, and they have weekly tastings for customers to try new bottles.

Psychic Wines

This gem of a Silver Lake wine shop has one of the best natural wine selections in Los Angeles. Psychic always seems to have a couple bottles of Gabrio Bini on the top shelf waiting for us – it’s like they can read our minds or something! 😉 They also seem to snag some of the rarer wines in town, like Lammidia, Anders Fredrik Steen, and La Sorga. It’s a beautifully designed shop, with very knowledgeable staff who are always eager to help you find a bottle.

Helen’s Wines

Helen’s Wines, the tiny wine shop in the back of Jon and Vinny’s, has one of the best natural wine selections in town – Gut Oggau, Tschida, Matassa, and Costadila can often be spotted on the shelves. Added bonus? You can order a plate of pasta in the shop while picking your wine!

Silverlake Wine

Silverlake Wine has two locations – one (you guessed it) in Silverlake, and one in the Arts District, which is aptly named Arts District Wine. Both shops offer a vast selection of natural, organic, and biodynamic wines, from Patrick Sullivan to Milan Nestarec to Foradori. We love that they have select bottles on display in the middle of the room for easy browsing.

Lincoln Fine Wines

If you have the same taste in wine as we do, you’re going to want to head straight to the affectionately named “Natty Corner,” where Lincoln Fine Wines is keeping all the best juice! You might find Gut Oggau, Matassa, La Stoppa, Patrick Sullivan, Bodegas Cueva, Le Coste, and Meinklang on the shelves, but hurry – bottles go fast!

Botanica

If you’re looking for great natural wine, healthy Californian cuisine, and just plain good vibes, look no further than Botanica. At the front of the restaurant is an all-day market, where you can buy natural wine bottles to go. The Other Right, No Control, and Partida Creus are often among the selection.

Where to Drink Natural Wine in L.A. – Bars

Bar Bandini

This dark and intimate Echo Park bar is one of the coolest places to drink natural wine in L.A. Bandini has eight kegs behind the bar, which allow them to promote a lot of local Californian wineries and small producers. While West Coast wine is generally the on-tap highlight here, Bandini also imports lots of bottles from around the world, with a steady influx of some of our favorite Italian producers like Le Coste and Cantina Giardino.

Tabula Rasa

We mostly frequent this Hollywood wine bar for their great natural wine selection (Jauma, Gut Oggau, Le Coste, to name a few), but they also have a pretty good food menu and a lot of weekly food pop-ups. Smash burgers and natural wine? Our idea of a perfect night. Tabula Rasa strongly believes in minimal intervention winemaking practices and supports female winemakers as much as possible.

Marvin

Marvin is a French bistro in West Hollywood but, to be honest, we’ve never tried the food here – we come for the natural wine. We’ve found our favorite Austrian family, Gut Oggau, on the list here, as well as many of their friends – Christian Tschida, Meinklang, Strohmeier, and Claus Preisinger, but, of course, their great wine list extends beyond Austria and includes some of our French and Italian favorites as well.

Bar Covell

While Covell is by no means a strictly natural wine bar, they do have quite a few of our favorite producers on their list, including Meinklang, Stolpman Vineyards, and Weingut Schmitt. The rest of their shelves are filled with mostly organic producers, and a few bottles of Champagne.
