It is a somewhat pretentious way to say a wine (eno) and food (culinaria) library. There is nothing like Latinate words to create an atmosphere of refinement!

eno-culinary library

I do not see anything wrong in translating literally in this case as the prefix "eno" is used quite often in common english parlance.

oenoculinary library

It offers the opportunity to wander from a book store to an oenoculinary library, a confectionary, a wine shop and other stores...
I agree with the first answer: the translation sounds quite pretentious, but maybe that's what they want it to sound like.
