Leslie, a luxury wedding planner, and LeAnn, an attorney, had grown tired of having to travel outside of their neighborhood in order to partake in activities such as eating and drinking delicious food and wine.

In the middle of Leslie and LeAnn's hometown of Inglewood, California, which is also their current home, you'll find the upscale wine bar known as 1010 Wine.

The Jones Sisters can't wait to have foodies and wine enthusiasts from all over the city visit their neighborhood so they can show them a place that is truly unique without them even having to leave their neighborhood. Our upscale wine bar, which is found in the middle of Inglewood, would be more than happy to provide accommodations for your upcoming celebration or business gathering.
