I'm a longtime customer of Chambers Street Wines, which is truly one of the gems of NYC. The staff…read morehere are not only warm and helpful, but impressively knowledgeable -- you can tell immediately that everyone who works here genuinely loves wine. What makes this shop stand out is its dedication to naturally made wines from small, artisanal producers. You won't find big-name brands lining the shelves; instead, every bottle is carefully chosen for its sense of place, the artistry of the winemaker, and the character of the vintage. Their strengths are especially strong in the Loire Valley, Burgundy, the Rhône, Piedmont, Austria, and Germany, but they're always evolving their selection. It's rare to find a shop so committed to quality and discovery. Now in their third location at 79 Chambers Street, they continue to deliver some of the best wines in the world -- and you can feel their excitement for the next 23 years. If you love wine, this place is absolutely worth a visit.

The wines in question were 2013 Gianni Brunelli Brunello, and 2015 Altesino Brunello. Both were on the shelf, and both were fairly priced. I was in and out within three minutes.

It's unlike other wine stores in the East Village. There aren't tiny aisles that make me afraid that I'll knock something over. They have a great selection of different types of wines. I've been trying to get more into orange wine and the person at the store was very patient with helping me select a good one! It was during check out when I noticed their many mixed cocktail options, which led to another 5-10 minutes of shopping around before I officially checked out. I ended up getting a White Russian with a label that has Big Lebowski on it .

"You'll need a bottle before reading his latest tweet."…read more I can't resist a clever sign, especially when that clever sign beckons me into a wine shop. So naturally after walking by and seeing this, I couldn't resist checking it out! Upon seeing the wine selection, I was glad I did. They had a lot more going for them than just amusing storefront signs alone. The wine selection here is absolutely fantastic. I was able to get an orange wine from Lazio made by nuns that I had at a wine bar months ago and loved. They also had many other wonderful bottles. Although the shop itself is small, it is filled completely with great selections and carries a very diverse range of wine. I'll definitely come back here, and would even go out of my way to make a trip here. Definitely one of the better wine stores I've found in New York City. I can't say much about the service here because the staff was busy dealing with a customer singing in the store, but I will be back to find out.

Wine Classes!…read more Squabbie and I took our first wine class at NYC Wine Class. We enrolled in their introductory to wine course, Wine 101. Andrew Harwood (the founder) was our instructor. He's had experience cultivating wine graps in Hungary, France, and California, to name a few places. He was quite informative and helpful. On top of our dessert wine, we had full glasses of 10 different types of wine. The grape variety for the wines included Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, & Malbek. The wine regions included Oregon, California, Argentina, Italy, and France. The prices of the bottles and their Wine Spectator ratings aren't revealed until after the wines are tasted, as to not provide a bias. There are five rounds of wines pairings, accompanied by a type of cheese. The wine pairings are selected to distinguish the contrasting tastes (e.g. comparison of regions, comparison of vineyard processing, or comparison of grape varieties). The class was a great introduction, and has whetted my desire to learn more about wines. If taken individually, the class would have cost $90, but Squabbie purchased the $275 four class promo package (good for 2 years and splitable amongst friends). I HIGHLY recommend this package (http://www.nycwineclass.com/wine_classes.php#256). I delayed taking this for half a year, I can't believe I waited so long! I can't wait for my next class.
