I had the most lovely experience at this store yesterday. I came in looking for a specific wine to give as a gift. I couldn't find what I was looking for (not for lack of searching!) but I found a couple of other bottles I was excited to purchase. When I came up to the register to check out, the gentleman who was helping me struck up a conversation with me about one of the wines I picked. He was kind enough to recommend a favorite of his own as well. I asked about the bottle I had originally come in for but couldn't find. He told me he was certain they had the wine I was looking for (spectacularly impressive in consideration of the store's extraordinary selection), and then went back to exactly where I was looking and found the wine I wanted. (I had only looked in that same exact spot for about 10 minutes and he was still unbelievably gracious to me!) I was so happy to be able to get the wine I was hoping to find, and I took home a bottle of the one he had recommended in our conversation! It's so nice to share enjoyment of wine with someone at a shop this large--so much more special than the typical retail shopping experience. I will be very happy to return to this location of this shop repeatedly in the future! read more
