Best of Boston

Carri Wroblewski and Klaudia Mally founded Brix in 2003 on a radical idea: that inventory should be determined not by household-name popularity or distributor pricing windfalls but the owners’ discerning tastes. Apparently, believing in every last bottle on your shelves wasn’t a bad business model, as evidenced by their expansion to two additional locations, and by the city’s patiently groomed taste for high-toned Burgundies, off-the-oaken-path Italians, and deep-track rosթs. Multiple locations.

Correction, June 26, 12 p.m.: In the July issue of Boston, Carri’s name was misspelled. We regret the error.
