Best Cellars is located on Knox Street (one block over (west) from Restoration Hardware.

I don't have any additional information (phone/specific address/hours) but I CAN tell you what we tasted:

- Reserve Saint-Channelle NV
- Red Hill Reisling 2001 (New Zealand)
- Santa Julia Viognier 2001 (Argentina)
- Terra Sana Rouge 1999 (South of France)
- Castas de Santar Dao 2000 (Portugal)
- Bonny Doon Framboise

Six glasses (healthy pours - more generous than a normal flight) over two hours made for a FUN party.

The store probably had about 200 wines total... and of those, over 150 were $15 or less (many $10 or less). The assortment was not your "usual" heavily marketed wine list and had several treasures I've found at off-the-beaten-path vineyards.

Also, with Knox-Henderson being such a trendy upmarket neighborhood, the crowd was young and professional.
