Welcome to WineDetective.com

Please stop by as soon as possible to please your palate and relax your mind! This is the place that was created by the wine lovers for the wine lovers and for those who want to learn more about an exciting and ever expanding world of wine. The concept was driven by our desire to create a place for wine experience that we wanted for ourselves and could not find in any existing establishments. What we wanted were:

  • Wide selection of excellent wines available for tasting by as little as one ounce at any time;
  • Vast assortment of offerings by the glass;
  • Ability to buy wines we liked during tasting by the bottle at a regular retail price;
  • Choice of gourmet small plates complementing the wines;
  • Casual and modern atmosphere of a "conversation bar", which would be equally inviting for a quick drink with a friend, romantic outing, or a party;
  • Staff of friendly fun people knowledgeable about wine and eager to help to navigate the wine collection, equally friendly and helpful for an established wine connoisseur and a total novice just starting to explore wine
  • Save 20% when you order from our Flight Menu

We offer all of this, and it makes our place quite unique among other wine places in Pasadena. Wine Detective is waiting for you!... more about wine tasting
