Mural City Cellars, an urban winery in Philadelphia, recently moved into a new spot in Fishtown, writes Michaela Althouse for PhillyVoice.
The new shop on Frankford Avenue was a former auto body shop, and is a short walk from its former wine garden in Olde Kensington.
“This is the space we’ve imagined since the inception of Mural City,” said co-owner Nicholas Ducos in a statement. “We see this winery as an extension of our living room and cannot wait to welcome our guests and take care of them like family.”
In addition to their own wines, Mural City will serve wines from Philadelphia’s Camuna Cellars, Lancaster’s Vox Vinetti, and Lehigh Valley’s Galen Glen.
Beers from Carbon Copy and Triple Bottom Brewing Company, a few non-alcoholic options, and charcuterie will also be available.
“We’re incredibly fortunate to live and operate our business within the same few blocks of this neighborhood, which has really embraced us as a Latinx– and woman-owned business,” co-owner Francesca Galarus said. “We were thrilled to find this larger space so we can continue Mural City’s mission of making wine unstuffy, enjoyable, and accessible to everyone using the bounty of amazing fruit available right nearby.”
