Respect
Respect for the cycles of nature.
Vine Cycle Wine Selections recognizes the many challenges that growers, winemakers and distributors face due to shifts in climate and market forces, today and in the years and decades ahead.
We honor the vine's annual growth cycle and deeply respect the hand-in-hand hard work and dedication it takes to produce wine each year. Our mission is to partner with the appellations, regions, villages and farmers that make wine possible.
History
Built in the dining room.
Christopher Corrao built his wine knowledge on the floor of some of the country's best restaurants before moving into distribution in 2000.
The foundation of the business is simple: customer service, education and attention to detail are tantamount to a successful business. Skiing and cycling have been constants the whole way.

Testimonials
I knew Chris years and years ago, maybe 25 years, and immediately I understood that he is the guy!!!
In this strange business, Chris stands out as a reliable lodestone.
Very few people smile from their heart the way Chris does when he's seriously dining.
