In this episode, we sit down with Brandi Edmonds, owner of The Wine Cellar in Huntsville, Alabama. Brandi shares her remarkable journey from protein crystallography and a career in healthcare to chronic migraine recovery and eventually owning one of Huntsville’s most iconic wine shops.

We explore how The Wine Cellar has grown into a welcoming, unpretentious space for wine lovers of all experience levels. Brandi opens up about the transition from customer to owner, the role of community in wine education, and the joy of creating a space where people feel like they belong—whether they’ve been coming for 20 years or just walked in for the first time.

You’ll hear about weekly tastings, upcoming events like Rosé Camp, the evolution of their Cellar Club, and how they're breaking down wine stereotypes one pour at a time.

If you’re curious about wine but intimidated by the world around it, this conversation is for you. Let Brandi and The Wine Cellar help you “drink outside the box.”
