Dorsey and Rob Campbell created The
Wine Guy in 1999, moving to Asheville from
Atlanta, where they had been in the wine business
for over 15 years as retailer, wholesaler, and
restaurant owners. In 2002, they opened a second
location on the South side of town which is
managed by longtime friend and fellow wine lover
Steve Nelson. The two shops offer an ever
changing, manageable number of wines from
around the world, personally tasted and selected
for quality and value. You will find terrific
alternatives to the “factory wines” found in
grocery stores, as well as limited production wines
from the world’s top growing regions and
wineries. Craft-brewed beers and a nice selection
of wine accessories round out the operation.
Personal service is our specialty, and we
take the time to learn your preferences so that you
will get the most satisfaction from your wine
purchase. We offer regularly scheduled wine
tastings and classes to increase your knowledge
and enjoyment, and work with the area’s top
restaurants to present incredible wine dinners, as
well.
At The Wine Guy, we are happy to answer
any wine related questions you may have, and will
gladly consult with you on plans for upcoming
weddings, banquets, or simple gatherings with
friends. Please stop in and let us share some of our
discoveries
Saturday Tastings on the Southside!
Every Saturday at The Wine Guy South we
invite one of our local distributors to come by and
pour some new and delicious wines for you to
sample. This is a FREE reception style tasting so
no reservations are necessary. Stop in between
4-6 pm and take advantage of this opportunity to
sample something new. Special pricing will
always be in effect on everything we sample.

THE WINE GUY CELEBRATES SEVEN YEARS ON THE
SOUTHSIDE!
The entire Wine Guy family would like to thank you for your continued support of our Hendersonville Rd. shop! We have finally completed our tasting room and will
be conducting seated tastings and classes
beginning this month. To show our
appreciation we will be celebrating from
2 - 6 pm Saturday May 16th with some of
our distributor friends who will be on
hand showing off some great new wines and
Wine Guy favorites.
And big news it is! We finally got our new tasting room finished at The Wine Guy South. By the time everyone gets this newsletter I’ll have
already had a private tasting in the new room. Both stores now have tasting rooms that are available for private functions, tastings and classes. We have scheduled a couple of our semi - blind tastings at the south shop in May & June so check the events calendar for details.
We’ve got plenty going on in the coming weeks and right out of the box on Thursday May 7th at The Wine Guy North we’re having a Mother’s Day Sale & Tasting. Chair massage,
essential oils, pottery, jewelry and other crafts
will be offered for sale by local artisans.
We will be very busy the following week also as we have two wine dinners scheduled. First, on Wednesday May 13th we will be back with Marco Garcia and Chef Stuart at Curras Dom. We’ll have some new delicious Spanish wines to pair with Stuart’s menu.
The second dinner of the week will
be Friday May 15th. Our new friends Matthew Macon & Tony Franco, owners of Food
Experience a local full service catering company have invited us, and you to have dinner in their kitchen - “Chef’s Table” style. This is a new and exciting wine dinner concept for us and we hope to do it regularly.
We have lots going on in the coming weeks and we hope you get a chance to attend one or several of our events at some point.
Check the calendar section for details on all of these events.
Since 1999 The Wine Guy staff has provided expert advice for weddings and events. We have been a valuable behind the scenes resource for choosing the perfect wines to serve while staying within your budget. We enjoy working closely with local event facilities, caterers and restaurants. As an extension of these services, we have now added The Wine Guy Presents, an event planning company managed by Samantha Nelson, an experienced, full service, Event Planner. From “day of” wedding direction to entire event coordination for family, professional, or corporate gatherings, we are available to take the details out of your hands so you can enjoy your special occasion.
Call us today to plan your next event or to handle some of the final planning of one you have already begun. Relax and enjoy your event. 828.277.1120
