When it comes to wine storage in Chicago, there’s a wide range of options to choose from, depending on the type of wine lover you are.
At Birch Road Clubhouse, we understand how important storage is to the enjoyment of wine, especially if you’re a passionate collector. Proper storage conditions can help to improve quality and flavor and, of course, prevent spoilage.

Our tasting bar is equipped with all the right tools to enjoy any bottle: wine keys, decanters, strainers, and the right glass for every occasion. Plus, we host exclusive social and community events to enhance the experience.
