Our Great City

The Wine Loft Owners, Rickey Dudley and Michael Peck, are pleased to launch the first of their new upscale wine bars in Southlake. Nestled in the new Southlake Town Center, The Wine Loft raises the bar for new places to relax with friends, family and associates by offering 70 different wines by the glass and 250 wines by the bottle. The Wine Loft’s chef, Joanne Irizarry, has studied at the Texas Culinary Academy and received the “Le Cordon Bleu” certification in Culinary Arts. Some examples of the Chef-inspired libations for the opening menu include:

• Escargot Vol au Vent
• Charcuterie Board
• Japanese Pumpkin Ravioli
• Duck Confit Tacos
• Filet Pistolettes

The Wine Loft began in New Orleans but was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. Since then, The Wine Loft has planted roots in Baton Rouge where they are now headquartered. There are currently six locations open, three in Louisiana and three in Alabama. This location in Southlake will be the first in Texas.

“We are really excited about opening the first Texas location.” stated Rickey Dudley, co-owner of The Wine Loft, “Southlake is perfect for The Wine Loft because it really is a community where neighbors come together. Not only will patrons enjoy great wine and our chef’s fabulous cuisine, we want to be a place where people celebrate their lives and make new friends!”

The Wine Loft offers a full service bar including beer, spirits and a lounge area that will feature an extensive list of wines from around the globe that have been hand selected by proprietors Rickey Dudley and Michael Peck include:

• Vueve Cliquot
• J – Lohr Seven Oaks Cabernet
• Louis Latour Pinot Noir
• Crios Torrertes
• Errazurizz Merlot

Tuesday nights, The Wine Loft will feature Half Price bottles of wine and on Wednesday nights from 6pm-8pm, there will be complimentary wine tasting.
