About Indigené Cellars
Indigene is Norma's Alley's word-of-mouth reward: owner-winemaker Raymond Smith's Black-owned boutique hides behind a downtown storefront, pouring award-winning Sangiovese, Pinot Noir and a coveted reserve list in a cozy room where Raymond himself teaches as he pours, open late Thursday through Saturday. Finding the alley door is the initiation; the wines and welcome do the rest. Downtown's best-hidden handshake.
