Another wine shop was called, "Kunin Wines." external link As described on their website, "Seth Kunin started Kunin Wines in 1998, focusing on Syrah, Zinfandel and Viognier. Over the years he added additional Rhone and Loire Valley varieties such as Grenache, Mourvedre, Rousanne, Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc and, more importantly, his wife and business partner Magan and their daughter Phoebe. Kunin continues to be a family concern, and is governed more by the passions and personalities of the Kunins than those of the critics or marketplace."
