I sat down with the owner Debbi Anderson and asked all the questions you may have before visiting her beautiful new wine bar. Take a read and then visit Vine Street Social when you are in town.
How did you first get into wine and what led you to open a wine bar in Frisco?
I’ve always had a passion for wine and have done many trips that were centered around visiting different wine regions and vineyards. I wanted to create a space within the Summit County community for people to come together, mingle, spend time with friends, have small bites and wine so I decided to embark on this new adventure in a town I love.

I was a CPA with my own tax practice in Denver for 23 years.
How long have you lived in Summit County?
In December 2022 my husband Eric and I moved to Frisco full time but have had a home in Frisco for over 10 years.
How did you choose your location?
I love the small town feel of Frisco, the community feeling you get when in Frisco and wanted to be able to walk to work, so we decided to look for a space in downtown Frisco.
