DeVINO Wine and Salumi

DeVINO Wine and Salumi is an Italian-style wine store, bar and deli at 2 Furzer Street, Phillip, in Canberra’s Woden area. It combines a bottle shop with a place to sit, so visitors can browse wines and Italian produce, enjoy a drink, or stay for something to eat. The venue focuses on premium wines, Italian salumi and artisanal cheeses, with a curated selection intended for relaxed nights in, celebrations and shared grazing.

The wine offering is a central part of the experience, with bottles selected from Italy as well as international whites. DeVINO also runs weekly tastings, pairing three chosen wines with cicchetti and inviting guests to try something new by the glass. That makes it a useful stop for wine enthusiasts, but also for anyone who wants guidance before choosing a bottle or assembling a spread. Table bookings are available for those who would prefer to settle in rather than simply shop.

For an easy lunch or gathering, the venue prepares panini and cheese and charcuterie boxes, available for collection or delivery through Uber Eats and DoorDash. The boxes are positioned for office get-togethers, informal lunches and evenings when cooking is not on the agenda, while the store’s salumi, cheeses, breadsticks and other deli-style produce can be used to build a picnic or grazing board. The website also points to wine-and-cheese combinations, including Prosecco with burrata and Chianti with Parmigiano Reggiano, although availability of individual products may vary.

The enoteca-style setting suits a range of visits: a casual glass of wine, a low-key date, a catch-up with friends or a solo browse through the shelves. It can also work for small celebrations where a ready-made platter is more practical than preparing food from scratch. DeVINO offers a monthly wine club, the DeVINO Society, with a choice of red, white or mixed Italian wines for collection. The store is open Monday to Saturday from 10am to 8pm and Sunday from 10am to 5pm. Street parking is available nearby, with further options at Skypark, Bowes Street, Matilda Street and the Phillip Ice Skating Centre.
