A wine bar in the heart of Birmingham's business district is closing down less than a year after it launched.
Vinoteca, based on the ground floor of Two Chamberlain Square on the Paradise estate, opened just a week before the start of the 2022 Commonwealth Games last July. The launch marked the company's first venture outside of the capital.
But the owners have now announced they have struggled to run the business in the face of the post-pandemic working landscape and the economic challenges of the past 12 months.
