Our Story

Owners Dave Stearns, Simon Roberts, and Rick Covert have taken their mission of procuring and providing the best wines on the planet and introduced it to a like-minded exclusive client base. Graileys is a truly unique concept, and we were first to market with our flagship Dallas location based on a 'country club for wine lovers' concept. We have created an environment in which serious wine collectors and savvy wine enthusiasts taste and share experiences with the finest wines the world has to offer. At Graileys, we hone our expertise by regularly tasting new vintages of both legendary classics and the next cult phenomenon with iconic winemakers, winery owners and the leading European importers. We also frequently travel to all corners of the wine world to taste with winery principals on their own turf, getting to know them, their philosophies, and the nuances of their vintages, bringing back invaluable first-hand knowledge to share with our members. Our resident brokers and sommeliers have spent countless hours studying and tasting to achieve their goals, while being totally committed to their passion for fine wine and attentive customer service. We are always on hand to discuss exploring varietals, producers, specific vineyards, cellar accumulation strategies, proper aeration of young and old wines, and through continuous tasting we are able to advise on optimum drinking windows for wines from all vintages and regions. Relationships are the backbone of our business and the ability to build and nurture them is just one of the many attributes of our team. We are confident in our selections because we have tasted them. Rest assured when you buy a fine wine from Graileys, you are also gaining a wealth of experience and knowledge, and we look forward to helping you enhance your collections and elevate your sensory wine drinking experiences.
