Rift Wine+Tap – a concept combining a wine lounge, a craft beer taproom, and a liquor store – opens for in-store consumption today in south Scottsdale.
The new venue, located near the northeast corner of Scottsdale and McKellips, began retail sales two weeks ago.
Rift Wine+Tap has a lounge with sofas, an extensive wine list, and 25 craft beer tap handles offering crowler and growler fills. Six coolers are stocked with beers, seltzers, and hard kombucha to go.
The owners are longtime south Scottsdale residents Jonathan Coppins and Damien Kanser, who host a beverage podcast called Spilling the Truth.
Hours are noon-10 p.m weekdays and noon-10 p.m. weekends.
