2025 Sommelier

Jamie Harrison Rubin

Jamie Harrison Rubin, wine director at Southwark and Ambra, brings his passion for sustainability and obscure, small-batch wines to life every Monday night at Winewark, a casual, hip-hop-soundtracked wine hangout at Southwark in Queen Village. What started as a pandemic-era idea to share his personal cellar stash has evolved into a vibrant weekly event, drawing wine lovers of all levels for a fun, unpretentious exploration of rare and eco-conscious vintages. With Rubin at the helm, Winewark blends serious wine knowledge with a laid-back vibe — no snobbery, just good pours and good company. Read more in our Best of Philly spotlight.
