Our Story
About DECANTsf
Our Story
DECANTsf is a laidback bottle shop, wine bar, and educational events space, in San Francisco’s buzzy, diverse SOMA neighborhood. We are proudly women- and queer-owned, and inclusive in every way, offering hospitality, education, and curated everyday drinking selections to local imbibers, national industry professionals and visiting connoisseurs, alike. Our motto is DRINK FOR YOURSELF and a curated sommelier experience is baked into everything we do. Always relevant, unapologetic, approachable and steadfast to our ethos of sustainable, delicious wines and beers from around the world.
The Beginnings
Our Co-Founders
Sommeliers Cara Patricia and Simi Grewal were introduced during their time studying at the Culinary Institute of America at Greystone in Napa Valley. Bonded by their love of good wine, good food, and making the traditional wine spaces more accessible to everyone, they opened DECANTsf in May 2019 and are now are taking on the world of wine together.
