Dog Gone Wine Bar posted a picture of its exterior sign on its Facebook page. “Just getting the sign up off the floor in the air, it’s [a] great place to store it while we wait for ‘power’ from PG&E,” the post read. While no specific opening date is available, the post indicates the business is in the construction and interior remodeling phase: “I have lots of trim, painting and furniture building and upholstery to get to finish.”
Located at 422 1st St, Dog Gone Wine Bar will occupy the space that previously belonged to Blackpine Catering and Events, inside a 1889 historic building. The upcoming wine bar is owned and operated by Woodland entrepreneur Sean Denny, who also operates an advertising and design agency called Denny Design. Based on information shared by the owner as he asks for vendor recommendations, the wine bar will serve light food options like cheese, charcuterie boards, and sweets.
No liquor license application can be found under the business address or the wine bar’s name from ABC at this stage. Another wine bar concept, Running Rivers Wine Cellars, had attempted to occupy the space but eventually withdrew its license application. Dog Gone Wine Bar’s owner was not available for comments at the time of this coverage.
