Let’s not kid ourselves, if I am going to grab some delicious bites from Star Provisions, I have to stop by one of my favorite wine shops for something to pair with it – Perrine’s! This is one of the most adorable stores you’ve ever seen. The owner, Perrine, as well as the rest of the staff certainly know their wines and are always so helpful in choosing the perfect ones for any occasion.

January 1970If you’ve been washing your snacks down with watery beer, stop. You can get even more enjoyment out of those greasy, fatty treats, and make those flavors sing with the help of a properly paired wine or beer. We chatted with Perrine Prieur Gallardo, founder of Perrine’s Wine Shop in West Midtown, and Kraig Torres, owner of Hop City Craft Beer and Wine, about which beverages go best with our favorite game day snacks.

January 1970Perrine’s Wine Shop is one of the premier stores of its kind in Atlanta. Located in West Midtown, Perrine’s was founded by Certified Sommelier Perrine Prieur in 2010. A native of Burgundy, France, Perrine’s family has been in the wine business for nearly 30 years. It is safe to say wine is in her blood. We visited Perrine’s to get her expert opinion on two quality white wines of opposite prices to buy this season.

January 1970I ventured to the wine section of my local supermarket and reached for five of the most lady-pandering bottles I could stomach. I also sought the help of a sommelier to act as my oenophilic seeing eye dog: Perrine Prieur, a certified sommelier and Burgundy native who was born and raised in the wine world. Perrine grew up in a winemaking family, studied wine at Dijon’s Le Castel, and worked as sommelier at London’s Michelin-starred Le Gavroche. She has serious cred—as well as an award-winning shop. She also has a somewhat rare perspective: that of a female expert in a historically male-dominated industry.

January 2013Fiercely French and fiercely competitive, the blue-eyed Burgundy native tended the vines of her parents’ vineyard before officially earning her chops as a somm at London’s Le Gavroche, the first restaurant in the U.K. to earn three Michelin stars. Perrine arrived in Atlanta eighteen months later in 2006 to work at the now-closed JOËL Brasserie (where Local Three is now). In 2010 she followed her dreams and opened what has become one of the most distinct and personal wine shops in the city.
As May approached […], Perrine started stocking the store with one of her favorite summer wines: rosé. With one of the largest rosé selections in the city, Perrine recently sat down to answer a few questions about a wine that doesn’t need food or an occasion to drink.

January 1970Perrine Prieur scooted her store in the White Provision complex one spot closer to neighbor Yeah! Burger, grabbing more storage space while maintaining the cute-as-a-clothing-boutique atmosphere. Prieur, a native of Burgundy and former sommelier at Joël, frequently hosts tastings with star winemakers. Check out the store’s knockout summer selection of rosés.
