Vinoteque VABRIK was born out of the wish to share our long-term passion and knowledge of wine and oenology with other wine aficionados. Here in VABRIK, we serve excellent drinks, organise wine trainings and other events that have to do with wine. We are located in the coolest district of Tallinn – Kalamaja, at Vabriku street.
Our team consists of a trained wine agronomist and sommelier, a wine expert and several wine enthusiasts who can give you recommendations and advice. It is important for us that our selection of wine makes you happy and you want to come back to Vinoteque VABRIK!
The face of VABRIK comes from the so-called wine family – Andre, Tiia and Alexander.
Andre
I studied to be wine agronomist and I started with South African wines in Estonia already in 1998. We offer a versatile wine portfolio to our clients and wine lovers. The portfolio consists of carefully selected quality wines and one-off tempting batches from around the world at especially favourable prices. I promise that we will always find a wine of good price and quality relation that is best suited for the specific person and occasion.
Tiia
My love for wine and food started in Italy where I studied art, ceramics and art semiotics during different periods of my life. Since the year 2005, I have been active in the field of wine. I have participated in purchase, sale, marketing and training processes; and from time to time I organise cultural and wine trips. I want to make wine, which at times might seem mystical and complicated, more understandable, playful and enjoyable for the people who enjoy it.
Alexander
My interest in wine comes from my home. As a son of a sommelier, this seemed a natural course of events. I have been living in Kalamaja for years and I have become a patriot of this part of the city. In VABRIK, I ensure that service runs smoothly and you could feel at home. In addition to working with wine, I study psychology – I am not a therapist yet, but the barman has always been the one who listens to everyone’s problems!
