Delafia

Durham, North Carolina

Delafia is a natural wine bar and bottle shop on South Roxboro Street, opened in July 2024 by Jesse Gerstl, who earlier ran Bar Lusconi in Durham and Peccadillo in Carrboro. The white brick building, once a barber shop, is split between an L-shaped bar with a small fenced patio and a retail shop. The by-the-glass list rotates constantly through low-intervention wines from small producers, alongside beer, non-alcoholic drinks and small plates such as tinned fish, olives and cheese.
