BIN905
Bin 905 was established in 1997 to serve Calgary’s growing thirst for premium wines and spirits. Our goal is to provide an enticing environment in which to shop, managed by a friendly and highly knowledgeable staff.
Virtually all of our staff members are either certified sommeliers or sommeliers in training, and the management team travels the world in search of unique and sought-after wines. It’s just one of the reasons the Globe and Mail called us the “best place in Canada to find rare wine.”
Visitors constantly remark that the selection and service offered at Bin 905 are un-matched in the Canadian market, and those are the words we like to hear! We offer a series of provocative and unique in-store wine tastings throughout the year in the laid back confines of our tasting room, and whether you are starting a cellar or just looking for the perfect wine for that perfect meal, Bin 905 is here to help.
We have plenty of free parking behind our store so come on down, have a taste of wine and discover why Bin 905 Distinctive Wines and Spirits is a mainstay among the great wine shops of the world.
