Wine shops in Tokyo

A running list of shops for wine and spirits in Tokyo.

My personal favorite is Cave de Re-Lax in Toranomon. An awkward neighborhood and somewhat inconvenient, but a great selection of affordable wines for every day. The owner, Naito-san, is crazy about wine (literally crazy) and you can follow him and his daily wine consumption on his website`s blog which is linked below. Naito-san has recently added a tasting bar to his shop. So, stop by late in the day and have your aperitifs here.
