It all started in 1854…

…and the rest is history! Who knew when this General Store and Post Office was built and opened in 1854 that it would one day become the beautiful wine bar that it is today? Who knows, but we’re sure glad it did!

Nineteen09 opened in July of 2019, but our story started in July of 2023 when we took over as owners. For us, Nineteen09 has been a place to gather with friends and family, celebrate the big and small events in our lives, relax after a long day, and experience something new. We hope we can be the same for you. In a turbulent time for small business owners, we had to make the very hard decision to close our doors permanently this year. Our last day in business will officially be December 15, 2024. We have a packed event schedule to round out an incredible 5 years in business, so we hope to see you often!

Cheers!

Cassie, Tyler, Addy, and Aubrey

What we are.

Your friendly, neighborhood wine bar offering 16 self-serve wines on tap plus over 20 craft beers, seltzers, and ciders in a bottle, as well as a stock of liquors and a full non-alcoholic menu.

A comfy place to find unique gifts for your friends and, let’s be honest here, yourself.

A workshop space where you can learn new skills, create art and enhance your palate.

An intimate event venue to celebrate the friend, the bride, the new mom, the couple, the employee.

The only BYOF place this side of the beltline. Yes, that’s Bring Your Own Food.

What we are not.

Just another stuffy wine bar. While we do have an extensive selection of reds, whites, roses and bubblies, we’re just so much more than that.

A restaurant. We can bring your blood sugar level down with some cheese, meat and nuts, but we stick to what we’re good at. And we’re terrible cooks. You bring your own food if you like.

Your typical sports bar. While we love us some Packers, Badgers and the Brew Crew and will definitely play the games during the seasons, a few of our tavern friends right down Main Street have the corner on that market. Come enjoy the local games with us but if you’re in to a bunch of TVs you’ll likely be disappointed.
