It’s all about the EXPERIENCE

Even if you are not a dyed-in-the-wool oenophile (that means wine connoisseur for you non wine drinkers), Bin 105 is worth checking out. I know, because I took one for the team and visited - just so I could write this review. Oh, the sacrifices we make for good newsletter content!

Right by the viaduct on 8th and P Streets Bin 105 is a hidden gem. Steve, the proprietor, was a wine distributor for many years. He recognized that most wine shops stocked the same wines; mostly from large vintners. He saw an opportunity to create a more personalized wine experience, providing inventory from a wide range of small batch vineyards and matching them to each individual’s taste. So, he jumped at the chance to take over a 750 square foot space next door to his current location, and when his model proved successful, he expanded into his current space.

Bin 105 provides a specialty foods and a curated wine experience like no other in Lincoln; great for closing gifts, for pairing wine with your dinner party menu or for just trying out a glass of wine as you wander around the shops in the Haymarket.

Over the last several years the shop has expanded its in-store offering, so you can enjoy a glass of wine on location. There are high-tech refrigerated containers with several bottles of wine on tap, so you can try a pour from several different bottles, in a variety of sizes. The self-served wine is very convenient and helps in deciding what wines you may want to purchase.

All in all, the experience at Bin 105 is top notch, personal, fun and not to be missed. I’m sure your friends, family and clients would enjoy it as well, so get yourself on down there and raise a glass to fall!
