Welcome to Wine Press Brookline May 24 Written By Chelsie Lincoln When you walk into WP Brookline, you’re walking into a space free of pretense and full of warmth. First as a customer and now as an employee, I sometimes forget how rare that experience can be. When our regulars open the door to shop we see friends to share our wine with, not customers from whom we expect transactions. In light of the latest changes to the neighborhood, the question asked during some of our first brainstorming sessions was, “What do people need?” We know this is a business, and we take that very seriously. But we are neighbors first. That’s what it’s like to work here, that’s how we think. The bottom line is important, but never more so than our character. There’s no snobbery or high-hatting of any kind. Genuine connection and the shared love of crafting unforgettable moments is what keeps us going. That’s why we love what we do, it’s why I feel so lucky to work for Aaron & Jyoti. And if you’ve spent any time browsing our shelves and chatting with our staff, you know exactly what I’m talking about. -Chelsie One of my favorite memories working in Brookline is when I helped a woman pick out a few bottles of different grower Champagne pre-pandemic. Then she came in earlier this year and asked me for help picking out Champagne telling my about how much she enjoyed the champagne someone helped her pick out back in 2019, and then realized I was the same person who helped her back then. -Chris I’m grateful to come to work every day at a place that not only values me and my contributions but also where I have an opportunity make an impact and effect change. The Wine Press vibe is 🔥 😎. I’m so lucky to be a part of it. -Ashley My favorite thing about Aaron and Jyoti is their strong sense of community. I remember when I got hired and Aaron took me to Japonaise Bakery next door & we sat outside and had coffee and talked about wine. He said, “I like your energy - You’re hired.” Every since that day I knew WP was a special place. I’ve learned SO much about wine and community engagement since I joined the WP family. Thank you for everything you do and I can’t wait to see the WP Market grow!!!! -Abby I’m happy to work for two people that legitimately care about being of service to their community. Our customers in Brookline see that Aaron and Jyoti know what it takes to be good neighbors and they extend that same mindset to their Wine Press family. -Colin Chelsie Lincoln
