I recently purchased a bottle of Penelope Rio bourbon and was shocked to discover I had been…read moreovercharged by $100. If I hadn't double-checked my account, I never would have noticed--and no one from the business contacted me about the mistake. This has never happened to me before, and I'm honestly stunned by the lack of oversight. Whether it was intentional or just careless, it's unacceptable to have that kind of error go unnoticed and uncorrected. Customers shouldn't have to worry about being significantly overcharged for a single bottle. Very disappointing experience.

After calling Randy's Wine store in Cos Cob to order an expensive bottle of champagne for a friend…read moreI was told the delivery within Cos Cob was too difficult but that certainly wasn't the case with Putnam & Vine!! Allison took my call and my information and was more than happy to deliver as requested to my friend. This is the type of business I want to spend my hard earned $$ with - they went out of their way to support me and to help me get this done for a very deserving friend. Shame on you Randy's....

When I walked in, Randy stared at me with his pale skin face and eyes that seemed to tear through…read moremy innards. As he reached down slowly, I began to ponder on what to say to this intimidating man. Randys build is humanoid, but upon glazing at his upper half. I wonder if he really is someone to consider as a threat. As I pick up my order, his hand grazes mine to hand me my item. I look at him with uncertainty, as I begin to count each of his skins pores. His pores were like giant gaping craters on a distant space rock, that stared back at me more than his eyes did. I leave quickly, unsure if this transaction was a sign. All I can think of now, is that true love; really can come in any form. Wine was actually pretty damn good!

I thought perhaps CT had moved on from the stupidity of making stores close at 8:00. Then I had to go because there were only seven reviews but all were 1 star. I had to see for myself. My experience Young guy politely asks if he can help. I tell him what I'm looking for. He checked and they don't carry it. Fine I'll browse. He starts to hover around me a little bit. Probably wouldn't have been so obvious if there were other customers in the store. Little annoying but I'm used to it. I tend to dress in old jeans or cargo shorts and flip flops. I guess I give off the impression of someone that doesn't belong in Greenwich. Pricing was very much inline with what I would expect to pay in a retailer pretty much anywhere. Points for that. I bought a few bottles ~$25. Only 1 of the purchases was I familiar with but I was thrilled to see it on the shelf and at a price I was paying 10 years ago. On the way out I caught the profile of someone up in an elevated loft/office that I suspect was the reason for the hovering. Maybe Greenwich has a lot of shoplifting. Try not to be dissuaded by the 1 star reviews. If you're in the area go check it out for yourself. I hope you enjoyed the short story. I must be bored.

Since I live in California (near Napa Valley), I've become a bit snobby about my wine selection. I asked my family, friends, and restaurateurs for liquor store recommendations. They all sent me to the "Wine Room" @ Buy the Bottle. They told me they have been going to Buy the Bottle for years...even before it was named Buy the Bottle. Apparently, this store (FKA Cappy's) has been run by the same family since wine was invented. I drove to the store and after 30 minutes of pure pleasure, I left with a case and a smile ear to ear. Gene was substantially informed in regional and non regional wines. I was impressed by his knowledge (better than some wine tasting concierges in Napa). The staff was very patient with me and answered all my questions. I felt very comfortable in B-the-B. You can tell they focus on customer satisfaction... I truly received EXCELENT CUSTOMER CARE! The wine I purchased was so very delicious and I impressed my family by rattling off all the details I learned while in B-the-B. Gene also told me that his family has been making wine since before they moved to America from Italy. To the folks at Buy the Bottle, THANK YOU! I will rely on every time I visit!

Prices on the shelf was lower than at checkout. While just a 5% overcharge the reason for this…read morereview is that the manager there shrugged it off as there being too many times to keep up with. Didn't really care at all and, I expect, this may be happening on a routine basis -- as it is at other retailers. Buyer beware. Make note of the price on the shelf, make sure it is for the 'right' item, and pay attention at the register. As for the indifference to this point I'll shop elsewhere.
