Vinology Wine Bar and Restaurant

Vinology is a wine bar and restaurant in downtown Ann Arbor, Michigan, housed in the historic Mayer Schairer Officer Supply Building. The multi-story venue was founded by Kristin Jonna, whose family background in specialty wine and food — including her father's seven-store gourmet chain, Merchant of Vino, and her own time at Benziger Winery in Sonoma Valley — shapes both its wine program and kitchen philosophy. The restaurant offers creative, wine-friendly world cuisine alongside a wine list designed to engage guests from novice to connoisseur. For private events, Vinology offers four individually designed rooms: The Bubble Room, a full-buyout space for up to 60 seated or 75 standing guests, adorned with 400 hand-blown glass balls and exposed brick; The Cellar Room, an intimate soundproof room for up to 20 guests with a presentation screen and wine bin display; The Bordeaux Space, a room featuring Bordeaux box lid walls and wine-themed art; and The Barrel Room, a semi-private space built from local reclaimed red oak. An in-house Event Coordinator, Executive Chef, and Beverage Manager oversee every event.
