First and Foremost
Cova Hand - Selected Wines is about
“Experiencing Wine”.
This unique concept offers everyone from beginners to experts a truly exceptional experience into the multi-faceted world of wine.
You can shop with confidence, pair wines with expertly prepared cuisine in the evenings, and attend unique and educational events all geared toward providing the best and richest experiences the world of wine has to offer.

At its core, Cova is a world-class wine shop. “Hand-Selected” means that we only offer juice that we put our stamp of approval on. Our selection is over 1,200 wines, and growing! Rest assured, that the wine will certainly be a quality expression of the grape and region from which it was harvested.
Hand-Selected doesn’t necessarily mean that our customers have to pay a premium, either. Our special relationships with wineries all over the globe translates to fantastic prices that are lower than warehouse prices, guaranteed!
In addition to normal wine shopping, Cova also offers a variety of wine clubs to give you the inside track to good juice. Three, six, or twelve bottle cases of hand-selected wines are set aside for our club members to be picked up at the store, or shipped to your desired destination. And check out Cova’s Inner Circle an exclusive club that brings you complimentary monthly tastings, a personally engraved mahogany locker, and unlimited corkage fees for wines consumed on-premise.
