Wine can be an enjoyable part of life. In fact, medical professionals encourage one or two glasses of wine per day to maintain good health. This blog will highlight some of my favorite wine bars in Charlotte, NC on a neighborhood by neighborhood basis.
When Yn Wine Cafe first opened next to 131 Main Restaurant at 1315 East Blvd, Charlotte, NC 28203, it was like visiting a “Speakeasy” as there were no signs, just a door. Now there is a large sign to point the way to one of Charlotte’s most intimate wine bars. It has subdued lighting and cozy seating. Great for a date or just to relax with some good wine. 
Yn serves a wine by the glass menu as well as bottles. The selection changes regularly keeping your choices fresh. They also offer daily specials that vary but sometimes include half price bottles. With the warmer weather, Yn offers live music on their patio. There is a friendly, knowledgeable staff willing to give you advice on their favorites. What’s not to like!

Besides being a REALTOR®, I am also a Wine Sommelier. This is a fancy French term for someone (me) who studies wine and matches a particular wine to my client’s likes for food or entertaining or just casual drinking. As a REALTOR®, I also match properties to my client’s likes. Both professions should improve my client’s quality of life. Drop me a comment and I will share your favorite wine bar in Charlotte NC or make a personal wine selection for you.
Cheers!

Tiger Woods uses a coach not because he doesn’t know how to swing a golf club. He uses a coach to fine tune his swing and improve his performance. Real Estate Sales is no different. Even experienced sales people need reminders and refreshers on how to approach new business and market changes as well as how to move potential clients along in the sales process. Investing in ongoing training and development will go a long way to securing more business.
At the My Townhome family of companies, we provide ongoing mentorship and coaching programs to each of our agents….new and seasoned agents alike. Could you, like Tiger Woods, benefit from an experienced coach/mentor?
Call today for more information. You’ll be glad you did.

I live on the edge of Dilworth in Selwyn Farms, close to both Dilworth and Southend neighborhoods. A longtime favorite haunt of mine is Bonterra Dining & Wine Room at 1829 Cleveland Avenue and Worthington Avenue (http://www.bonterradining.com/). Located in a remodeled 110-year old church, Bonterra offers one truly unique feature: 200 wines that can be purchased by the glass. This is great place to expand your wine knowledge by sampling whites and reds. It’s a very casual setting and the friendly staff is always willing to let you sample a sip or two to find your right wine.

In 2007, construction began on 69 townhomes and condos in historic Southend. Endorsed by Charlotte Center City Partners this was a great addition to the Southend Neighborhood. A team of experts came together to create the residential buffer between the new Lowe’s Home Improvement Store and the Dilworth Neighborhood. The original design for the site was performed by Land Design with a goal to minimize the impact of the commercial space by creating and an urban village atmosphere.
Southborough has been the talk of the town so many times. In the beginning of 2010 Southborough was a key component to help raise money for Pat’s Place, a Child Advocacy Center. A huge garage sale was planned and Southborough donated the use of its residential garages to support the cause with all profits going to Pat’s Place.
On October 1st, 2010, My Townhome Realty took over the sales efforts for Southborough and introduced new discounted pricing on the remaining 49 homes. My Townhome has assigned a team of experts to sell the remaining inventory in short order. The team will included My Townhome Realty owner T.J. Larsen, Sales manager Roselyn Langley, Brokers Billy Shugart, Mike Feehley and Nancie Woods.
We have collected a set of photos of Southborough:
