This is one of my go-to spots. I love the unique selection of wine. We moved here from California…read moreand one of our favorite destinations was Valle De Guadalupe, in Mexico. Finding wine from this region is very rare -- but this spot had several options to choose from. It also includes a great range from across the country and some of the best wine regions around the world. They even sell one of my favorite wines from a small producer is Paso Robles that is even hard to find in Southern California. They have a wonderful wine selection as well as non-alcoholic options such as Ghia soda. Being a longtime Californian, I loved the many options to try these non-alcoholic drinks known as Nootropics, aka herbal drinks that give you a relaxed feeling without the hangover. It's definitely not a buzzed feeling but more of an inner calm if you want to chill and wake up refreshed the next morning. The wines are reasonably priced. They also have a wide range of hard liquors. I'm not a heavy booze drinker so mostly come here for the wines and the Ghia soda. But it seems to be a nice selection on the hard liquor side as well.

The inside is spacious, with two levels, and a good variety of wine as well as other types of alcohol. The woman working behind the counter was friendly and helpful, and directed me to where the Georgian wine was. I picked up a bottle of Amber wine for $25. I brought it to my friend's house for Thanksgiving and everyone loved it- a few people took pictures of the bottle so they could buy it. I thought $25 was reasonable considering the wine was from 2016, and tasted really good. This place will probably become my go-to wine store in DC from now on!

I love checking out wine stores to see what they have in stock. I stumble upon Vin De Constance 2013 a family favorite. Great DESSERT Wine!! I went on wine scavenger a web based wine Encyclopedia if you may. Great source for viewing other professional and nonprofessional ratings. The owner proceeds to tell me you do you know that wine apps and wine websites are a waste of time and are usually completely wrong. I tell her thanks for your opinion. Awkwardly... I am in the wine business .... and review wines myself. As I go to grab the bottle, the owner actually takes it from my hand and takes the price off the wall. She tells me this is the wrong price it's priced too low. . Granted I agree I was surprised to see a 2013 for under 60 bucks. But the bottle was in my hand .. and I told her I was ready to purchase it. Oh it gets better .... she then tells me have a great day. ..... like what??? So my response ok then you too... LITERALLY IM IN SHOCK. Not sure if I should be annoyed or laugh. Needless to say at least I know I won't be recommending this place to my family or friends. STAY AWAY YELP COMMUNITY.

We passed…read moreBacchus Wine Cellar and immediately noticed its big picture window - or, more accurately, the scene it revealed inside...a tiny room whose walls were lined with wine and spirit bottles, and a small multigenerational group talking, laughing, and clearly enjoying some red wine. We couldn't resist and entered the shop exclaiming, "This looks like our kind of party!" and we were instantly welcomed into the fold. It was an unofficial wine tasting for a wine the shop was considering ordering (a pino grigio that was yum). We met some locals and the owners, and we felt like we had just made some great friends. The owner and his wife and daughter were lovely and so knowledgable about their wines. And so fun to talk to! The store opens out in the back, and they have quite an extensive inventory (and some very nice but pricey choices). Such a comfortable and welcoming vibe, even a wine novice like myself didn't feel intimidated because they were so helpful. Apparently, they host tastings from time to time. I loved this shop and look forward to returning. Very glad we decided to pop in!

One of the most gratefully received gifts I've ever presented someone wasn't the result of my sophistication or wisdom, it was a solid recommendation from Bassam and Ryan. Always worth a stop. And once they know you, they'll always wave and cheerily call out, "Hello!", whether you're walking in or walking by. Flawless service, impressive selection and kindness. That's totally worth five stars (as are the ever-rotating, delightfully funny quotes in the window!).
