Established in May 2013, Vintage MV Wine & Spirits was born from a vision to create a wine shop like no other. Our founder, John Clift, a certified sommelier with over 20 years of beverage experience, brought his dream to life in Beautiful Martha’s Vineyard with a commitment to offering exceptional wines, beers, and spirits.

Every product in our store is hand-selected and tasted by our knowledgeable team to ensure the highest quality and a perfect fit for our customers.

We’d love you to meet our team!

Alex Stone, the full-time store manager, sommelier and event coordinator, is bringing over 15 years of experience in restaurants and hospitality. Originally from South Carolina, her culinary journey began in Charleston as a chef, a celebrated food city known for its rich flavors and hospitality. Since then she’s been working all facets of the food and beverage industry with a variety multi-cultural restaurants and diverse cuisines all over the east coast, gaining extensive knowledge, skills and concentrating on her passion for food and wine. For the past four years, we’re proud to call Vintage MV her professional home, helping to grow its reputation as a trusted resource for our food and wine lovers.

We’re excited to also introduce Jessica Kohlbeck to the Vintage MV Wine & Spirits team. A certified sommelier, Jessica brings a wealth of knowledge and hands-on experience to our shop, having participated in wine harvests and production. In the off-season, she travels to renowned wine regions, immersing herself in the industry to discover new inspirations and exceptional wines to share with our customers. Her passion for wine and dedication to curating unique selections make her a perfect fit for Vintage MV, and we’re thrilled to have her palate and expertise enhancing our carefully curated shelves.

Our commitment to quality and hospitality also extends beyond our shop, as we proudly partner with our two sister restaurants—19 Raw/19 Prime Steakhouse in Edgartown and our newest addition, Craft 9 Kitchen in Vineyard Haven. 19 Raw/19 Prime has been a staple in Edgartown for seven years, offering an elevated raw bar and steakhouse experience, while Craft 9, which opened last year, brings a dynamic new culinary destination to Main Street in Vineyard Haven. John Clift, owner and proprietor of Vintage MV, also curates the beverage programs at both restaurants, ensuring each menu features thoughtfully selected wines and spirits that enhance the dining experience. Whether you’re dining at our restaurants or visiting our storefront, we’re here to bring you the best in food, wine, and hospitality.

At Vintage MV, we believe in hands-on customer service. We’ve built our shop from the ground up with passion and dedication, always striving to provide a curated selection that suits any occasion.

Vintage MV operates seasonally, with hours beginning in April and running through the end of October, allowing us to provide dedicated service during the island’s busiest months.

Our services go beyond the storefront.
