During my short visit I was approached by three sales people, two very friendly, welcoming, and anxious to answer any questions. I was primarily interested in French and Northwestern wines. Not a huge selection but some very interesting and fine selections, several of which I haven't seen elsewhere in the Capital Region. I walked out with seven bottles. While I didn't expect this, I received a half case discount. Not inexpensive, but seemed quite fair for the area. I am looking forward to a return visit.

After that I wrote the owners an email and I never heard from them .Not an apology was issue not even a reply .I can't help but to think This was somewhat racially profiled but I can't make that judgement only god can I just know I will never set foot in that establishment again .

Very favorably impressed with this store! It's relatively small compared to other stores in the…read morearea like Empire Wine but they do have a nice selection that is very well organized. Plenty of easy lot parking in a shopping g plaza next to Marshall's. I was delighted to find some more unusual wines instead of the typical 19 Crimes and Yellowtail (which they also have). I was absolutely delighted that they sell Piñaq, an incredible liquor made by blending French VSOP cognac and Dutch vodka with various natural fruit flavors, including passion fruit, coconut, and pineapple. The pineapple bottles are amazing and I've gone to great lengths to be able to purchase these in MA and RI. They are readily accessible here although they only had the yellow (pineapple) and blue (passion fruit) bottles. Maybe I will be back closer to the holidays for these. I would love to see them get the pink (rosé) one. The staff person working here was super nice and chatted with me about the store. They are under new ownership which seems to be doing a great job. I look forward to checking back here next time I am in town and maybe scoring some more Piñaq!

This store is gross. I asked someone in Empire Wine where I could buy beer (since they do not sell…read moreit) and he pointed here, presumably because it is close by. Upon walking in the store, I felt like I was sticking to the floor and it had the aroma of a recycling center. While they did have some nice craft selections, they are not well organized or marked. I felt really out of place as a woman shopping here. This seems like more of a store for college kids and hardcore 24 pack a weekend consumers. Also, while they have signs everywhere that they ID 100 percent of customers, the guy didn't ID me, so the false advertising made it seem a bit sketchy. 2 stars for the local craft selection and convenient location but the actual store is foul.

Second time here, not so great. The sales clerk was still…read morehelpful, but I definitely picked up a four pack of skunky beer. Partially my fault because the same four pack was on discount up front at the 40% of rack, but I paid full price honestly because I picked up my four pack from the aisle that should have been freshly stocked. I had faith that they weren't from the same order, but, I was mistaken. A properly functioning beer purveyor would have stocked all these outdated beers elsewhere .... But this one was a miss.

If I were getting take-out from anywhere in Galleria 7 or nearby, I'd certainly stop in here to get a bottle of wine or two to go with my meal, and there's a small cooler in the back with some already-chilled wines. It's not a large store, and the size is reduced a bit more by the center aisle being an "employees only" area. So they're forced to pick and choose what they sell, and I think they made good choices. As you walk in, the wines are on the right, very well organize, with competitive prices. Liquor and liqueurs will be on the left, with a significant assortment of whiskeys. Prices are reasonably competitive here. Service is friendly, I was greeted as soon as I walked in.

What really sets this place apart from other places though are the self serve wine tasting station where you can taste before you buy and the in store chilling machine. The self serve wine taste station usually has 4-5 bottles on tap and little cups for trying which really is a better way to go than picking the prettiest label like I usually do. Then, if you want your wine ice cold, drop it in the self chilling machine and in a mere seven minutes, ice cold baby. If you know a wine you want, just drop it in and then shop for news stuff for a few minutes and voila.
