"Bar Gemini, the newest wine bar in the Mission, has a strong wine and culinary background thanks to owners and partners Dominique Henderson and Alex Pomerantz. Together, they own bottle shop Gemini Bottle Co. just four blocks away. Pomerantz also owns Richmond-based natural wine company Subject to Change Wine Co., while Henderson has poured wine at some of San Francisco’s most popular restaurants, including Quince and A16, later going on to run the wine program at Rich Table. Still, as they tell it, the wine bar isn’t just an extension of their experiences in the worlds of hospitality and wine; instead, they say their friends’ talents helped bring the vision together. “This really was a collaboration of all of our friends that we definitely couldn’t do without,” Henderson says." - Dianne de Guzman
