Looking for a new wine concept in Charlotte? Petit Philippe is worth the visit for a whole new experience in whetting your palette with carefully selected wines to taste. They do wine flight tastings for a set price or you can just enjoy a glass of what is available \"on tap\". Even better if you decide you like something from the flight tasting you can purchase a bottle minus the outlandish mark-up you get at most wine bars. The employees running the flight tastings are very well versed in the subject of wine and the day's flight offered. Upon my first visit I wondered why this new establishment was only open until 9:00 pm on Friday and Saturday nights so I thought I would inquire about this minor annoyance. Technically Petit Philippe is a tasting room and would require different licenses to become a \"wine bar \". A wine bar is not the model the owner is looking to achieve and the owner would prefer to keep it this way. I am certain my question gets asked a lot but I was okay with why they are only open until 9:00PM. There is not a plethora of tasting room concepts in Charlotte so I am excited to see a new type of concept up the street. If you are a late night owl check this place out before dinner or your night out on the town. They also sell delectable chocolates in house created by a Chocolatier learning the art of chocolate making in France. Need I say more about this one? They plan to debut a white Russian truffle soon. If it's as good as their dark chocolate sea salt caramels I can't wait until this one shows up in the store. As far as atmosphere goes the store has a modern feel to it with plenty of room for seating. My only recommendation would be some more comfortable chairs and dimmer light to create a more intimate feel. I will definitely be coming  back to Petit Philippe sooner rather than later. Cheers!
