A new gourmet wine shop is coming to the northern end of Crystal City, according to a permit application recently filed with the Virginia Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control.
The “Crystal City Wine Shop” — as the store is called in the application — will be located on the ground floor of the Lenox Club apartment building at 401 S. 12th Street.
A phone number listed for the Crystal City Wine Shop on Facebook is the same as that of the Washington Wine Academy, which operates a wine and beer education center at 1201 S. Eads Street, across the street from the future wine store.

Really, NoVA? Really?
Thank you, Baby Jesus!
(So long as they actually serve wine and it’s not a ruse to just purchase wine… even then, OK, I’ll take it!)
