Pur Noire

Just had an incredible date night at Pur Noire in Oak Cliff! We made sure to book the tasting in advance, and let me tell you, those glasses of wine were out of this world! We ended up bringing home two fantastic bottles--the Doree Chardonnay and the Epiphany GSM Red Blend. The ambiance? Absolutely intoxicating! It strikes the perfect balance of sexy and sophisticated, making it the ideal setting for an urban wine bar. Our host, Ayanna, was amazing, and she really convinced us to go for the membership! If you're looking for a night to remember, I can't recommend this place enough. Grab your favorite people, get ready to savor some outstanding wines, and be prepared to linger a little longer than you planned. You won't regret it!

A couple of things Pur Noire did REALLY well.--I loved that their website showed you where to park in order to get redeemable parking.--The guided wine tasting was swiftly informative--I was worried the guide would spend too much time at our table.--The ambiance was warm and inviting. Everyone was super nice, and the space was fashionably decorated.My qualms with Pur Noire:--It was Live Music Night (Friday Night) and the music was obnoxiously loud. I've noticed this appears to be a trend at black owned establishments and I am unsure why. Nonetheless, the band played a little quieter when our guide shared the feedback. (btw, the feedback didn't come from us).--I wish the wine pours were a little heavier--at least 2 oz. I would've even paid more. Their tasting includes 1 oz pours of 6 wines. So $43ish for 6 oz of wine. Sheesh.I probably won't be back for the tasting, but they have a cute plush bar for walk ins. I'd come back for a glass during a happy hour!

My friend and I stopped by Pur Noire for Sunday Brunch bites. Our reservation was at 1 and they called us 10 mins prior to our appt & advised that the chef was late and asked us to come at 1:30 or 2. We were already in front of the building. In my opinion, the short notice was extremely unprofessional. The winery itself is gorgeous. Very chic. Very cutesy. I loved it. The music was selection was on point.Now to the brunch, the waitress served us and advised that the chef never showed up and they whipped the food up. All of it was lukewarm. It wasn't hot at all, I didn't eat any of it. I didn't feel comfortable. If the chef called in, who made the food? Idk. The wine itself was sub par. We were able to choose from three different wines for the tasting. Nothing memorable. Our server was phenomenal and extremely apologetic. It's not her fault that the chef didn't show however it was an inconvenience & it wasn't a good first impression. I don't plan to come back but I do hope that this black business succeeds.

It was a cute vibe. Nicely decorated. For the life of me, I'm still trying to figure out why it took almost 2 hours for a tasting of 6 wines. I came here on Sunday will a girlfriend under a reservation, and we felt overlooked the entire time we were there. We had no food, so it really shouldn't have taken so long to complete a simple tasting. Usually, the way it works is you complete the tasting, and then you are impressed with a wine enough to purchase a full glass or bottle. Not the case with us, we were itching to finish so we could leave and go eat elsewhere.

Pur Noire was on our list of things to check out and it being a black owned winery. It was $40 for a wine tasting that included six wines. You can also order a charcuterie board 24 hours before your tasting to go with the event. We forgot to do that but our associate was so nice that she was able to accommodate us for our small party and it really did set off the wine tasting. We started off with champagne while we got ready for the wine tasting to begin. Our associate whose name I can't remember was amazing. She was so knowledgeable about all the wines and just made it a great experience. The wines with the exception of two which were a little too bitter for me were amazing. This is definitely a great spot for a date night or girls night. I will definitely be back when I'm in the area.

Came here for the first time for a wine tasting experience on Valentine's Day during black history month 2025 and this was an absolutely necessary experience for such a time! I really enjoyed learning that this place and all the wines I tasted were black owned. The charcuterie was really nice small food option to go along with our drinks and the ambiance was beautiful and just as tasteful as the whole shabang. Our server was very informative and helpful since we were late for our reservation! I really appreciated the grace period and accommodations considering our delay and life just life-ing. Highly recommend this place and the overall experience!

Let me give you the good, bad and UGLY.I wanted to love this spot. However, they are new and still have some kinks to work out.I did the Sunday Brunch Bites EXPERIENCE with a friend! This is something I would recommend trying. Food and wine pairings are great. Ambiance 5 STARSIt is vey cute and the decor is nice. It's chic and modern. The colors are pleasant and it feels cozy inside.The bar area is very charming and the restroom was clean. I was happy and off to a great start. Food: 4 STARS The chef did his thing. He put LOVE and his whole foot into the food. The bites were so damn tasty and GOOD! Everything was well seasoned and so flavorful. Even though it was just simple bites. I had to take a star off because everything came out cold. I'm like how are you cooking it fresh and made to order, but it comes out cold. Each bite came out cold or luke warm. Please make it make sense. It was still delicious cold. The chef came out and he was pleasant. We had a chance to engage with him. Chicken, waffles, stuffed mushroom, shrimp and grits, eggs and quiche were some of the bites. All were yummy. My favorite was the stuffed mushroom.Wine 3.5 STARSSome of the wines were good and some were ok. I just think the selection is a bit limited. They didn't have any sweet wines. A place should always have one. I did enjoy the tasting overall and really liked the rose. Which was surprising because I don't like most rose wines. The Champagne/Prosecco one was nice on my palate. Service 2 STARSThey were short staffed I believe. So I gave them some grace and patience. They kept apologizing for the delay and long waits between each tasting. Some of the staff wasn't knowledgeable when we asked questions.Also I would get wine and no food bite. Or a bite and no wine. They need to get it together and be a bit more organized. Each paring should have wine and food bite. So the service was a miss. Slightly a hot mess.Overall the food saved the day. I did enjoy supporting them and trying a new EXPERIENCE. I wish them success in Dallas. I don't think they chose the best location. It's like hidden and the corner seemed dead. I wish they would have chosen a better area. I will visit the Houston one to compare notes. I know that location is established. The pricing was fair for the tasting. I just didn't get what they showed in pictures. We did inquire about this. I wish them the best and I say it's worth checking out. I would go back if the chef is cooking. I could eat a BIG plate of his food. Tip: charcuterie has to be ordered 24 hours in advance. They don't serve food. If you want food do the brunch bites tasting on Sundays. Make a reservation and pay in advance. With downtown you know parking is hard.

We chose Pur Noire as our couples' date night/birthday celebration location (two couples, with one person from each couple celebrating a birthday). We had a 4:30 PM Saturday reservation. It was pretty busy when we arrived, with several two-person tables and two groups. It was energetic and loud. The ambiance and decor were nice (I could see them needing a bigger location pretty soon). We paid for the grand tasting and two charcuterie cups. The grand tasting included six wines. The charcuterie was typical, with prosciutto and salami (I think--I didn't eat), grapes, strawberries, chocolates, nuts, crackers, and honey. The charcuterie was good and held us over until dinner at 7:30 PM.The wines were good, some better than others. Each person in our party found something they liked.Our wine hostess (I can't remember if this is what they are called or sommelier) was nice and seemed knowledgeable. She explained the wines, the creation of the company, and things to look for in the tastings. She gave us the right amount of time between tastings and was very friendly.We each wanted a glass of the Merlot and were told it would be cheaper to get a bottle. The bottle was $64. It was good but not worth that price to us. We've had better Merlots for half that price. But it's a matter of opinion--others may disagree. Also, we couldn't quite figure out the wine club, but to be fair, we didn't ask them to explain.None of us are true connoisseurs, but we each enjoy a good glass of wine and know enough about pairings to get by. We all enjoyed this place and would return/recommend it. It would be nice for a date night or girls' night out.

Service was great and enjoyed the ambiance. Had good music playing, staff was knowledgeable about the wine which was great. Did the quarter wine flight and the wine was good! Enjoyed the ride flavor the rose wine the best out of the flight.Good for a nice date night or girls night/day.

Ayanna fix my wine!!!! The expierence was beyond amazing and the customer service was spectacular. They are bringing a Upscale vibe to the black community where everyone is welcomed.
