Water Tower Wine is your neighborhood wine bar & wine shop located in the heart of Southport’s Historic District. Embracing local charm and community spirit, we proudly offer 150 American wines and 100 global favorites—your world tour in a glass, providing a little trip abroad without ever leaving town. Join us for daily wine tastings, enjoy great beer selections on tap, and create your own charcuterie board with our delicious snacks. It’s the perfect place to unwind with a glass of wine, connect with friends, and feel at home in Southport.
When we moved to Southport, we were immediately welcomed by the community, and it didn’t take long for us to feel connected. Inspired by our love for wine and good company, we were motivated to build a small, meaningful wine shop rooted in Southport—something we could create together for our neighbors and friends.
Wendy brought years of experience from owning a staging and design company in Virginia, while I stepped away from the corporate world to pursue something more personal and focused on connection.
Water Tower Wine grew from that vision. Inspired by our travels, the moments we’ve shared with family and friends, and our passion for gathering around a good glass of wine, we wanted to create a welcoming wine bar that feels warm and approachable to everyone. In addition to our extensive selection of wine, we also offer opportunities for wine tasting and a curated selection of local beer.
We’re grateful and blessed to bring Water Tower Wine to our town, and we look forward to sharing many conversations, glasses of wine, and memories with our Southport neighbors.
Give the gift of great wine, craft beer, and good times with a Water Tower Wine gift card. Perfect for birthdays, holidays, anniversaries, or just because. Purchase online or stop by the shop to pick one up and share a little taste of Southport. See ya at The Water Tower!
Our mini market is thoughtfully stocked so you can enjoy time in our shop with everything you need for an appetizer, a relaxing lunch, or a take-out afternoon picnic—perfect for hanging out with friends. We feature standout cured meats from Brooklyn Cured—including sweet soppressata, Tuscan beef salami, bresaola, and prosciutto hams—paired with exceptional cheeses from Beecher’s Handmade Cheese in Seattle, along with classic mini Brie and Camembert from Île-de-France. To complete the board, we offer a curated selection of gourmet crackers and artisanal flatbreads from Di Bruno Bros. in Philadelphia and Rustic Bakery from Sonoma. Alongside these delightful pairings, we provide olives, tapenades, and mustards to enhance the experience, plus a selection of fine chocolates thoughtfully chosen to complement our wine and beer selections. Each selection can be enjoyed as a beautifully prepared charcuterie board—complete with a serving knife—to savor inside our wine bar or on our outdoor patio during a wine tasting, perfectly paired with our fine wines and craft beers.
