Shuttered Delano wine bar is unloading glasses, dishes, leftover wine in weekend sale

Alzavino Wine Tavern at 1001 W. Douglas in Delano closed its doors for good last weekend.

Now, owners Danielle and Ken Harmon are trying to unload the contents of the place.

Until 6 p.m. today (Friday, July 12) and then starting at 1 p.m. on Saturday , the couple is putting on a sale inside the bar and offering up its dishes, flatware, wine glasses, Alzavino merch and leftover wine and beer.

I just stopped by and was tempted by far too many things. I bought some forks (my teens keep making mine inexplicably disappear) and some serving platters and tiny spoons that I’ll use in my other life as an amateur charcuterist.

But there’s still lots left. Shoppers can get wine glasses of every size, some as inexpensive as $3 apiece, and bottles of wine that start at $20. (All the leftover wine is at least 60% off, Danielle said.)

Also, any Alzavino merch, from T-shirts to earrings to key chains, is 40% off.

If you’re looking for some items for home entertaining, it would be worth your time to stop by. Danielle said the sale on Saturday will run until 5 p.m. or until all the stuff is gone.

Alzavino opened in the summer of 2021 as Wichita’s first self-serve wine bar. It featured a computerized self-service tap system made by Napa Technology that had bottles of wine encased in special machines that allowed people to swipe a card preloaded with money and choose various sizes of pours.

But in May, the Harmons announced their plans to close the bar, saying that they were interested in taking a step back and pursuing other interests. The bar’s last day in business was Saturday, July 6.
