About Us
San Diego’s unique wine experience
Our wines: We offer an extensive selection of eclectic, highly-rated and small production wines from around the world. Our Italian, Spanish, Californian and "Under $20" collections are hard to beat. We hand pick and sample every wine before we stock it, so you can be sure of the quality. With hundreds of wines to choose from, there's something to fit every palate and pocketbook.
Case discounts: 10% off mixed cases
Wine bar: Our wine bar features a dozen wines to sample by the taste or by the glass. The selection changes weekly, so there's always something to try before you buy. On weekends, join us for themed tastings such as "Southern Hemisphere Reds" or "Cabernets from Around the World." Enjoy imported meat & cheeses and other appetizers with your wine selections.
Classes: Ever wonder how to taste wine like a pro, read a French wine label or tell the difference between Barolo, Barbera and Brunello? If so, our wine classes are for you. We limit the class size to 15 people so you can taste and explore the world of wine in a fun and friendly environment.
Private events: Our downtown location offers the perfect venue for your private party, corporate event or group dinner. Our staff includes Certified Wine Specialists, party planners and a professional chef to help arrange all the details.
No corkage: There's no need to pay restaurant prices when you can get your wine retail. Bacchus Wine Market has joined forces with select area restaurants who appreciate our unique selection of wine. The restaurants listed below will waive the corkage fee for any wine you bring in that was purchased from us.
Asti Ristorante, Vincenzo Ristorante Italiano, Acqua Al 2, de'Medici, Greystone Steakhouse, Osteria Panevino, Osetra the Fishhouse, Chopahn, Morton's San Diego.
