Learning about wine during this home time! Wine Rack offers curbside or delivery.
Jess A.

During this time of healthy at home I've decided to learn more about wines from different regions. I was delighted to see that The Wine Rack was separated by geography so I could easily find wines in my price range. So for this #ThankYouThursday I want to give a shout out to The Wine Rack for helping me learn more about wine in a fun way! The tasting notes that accompany many wines quickly helped me narrow down my choices. It was convenient to pick up local beer and appetizer snacks to make a full experience. COVID notes - the team is delivering and when I went into the store I found the staff helpful while maintaining a more than 6 ft distance so I was able to shop. They are making sure only so many shoppers are in the space at one time. If you're not sure what to buy give them a call and the staff has a ton of knowledge and can help you make a great selection.

John is the best I ask him to find a wine he will try his best to find it. He even brought in an Italian wine that I drink in He knows his stuff and if you just ask them they will find you what they have in stock that could be better than what you were looking for. Great place to pick up spur of the moments frozen pizza or blue dog bread too Good variety of spirits too They are our go to.

WONDERFUL level of service. In fact, the best service I had while in Louisville. The two guys that were there really made a difference in the experience. TOTALLY knowledgeable about their products, and were able to give some great ideas on tasty bourbons for certain. The prices were competitive, and we were even able to find some of the hard-to-find stuff here. A MUST STOP on the road looking for good bourbons!

[11/7/19] Champagne and Burgundy wine tasting night

[Update for 11/7/19 and 9/25/19 wine tastings] What to do: sign up for emails and RSVP for their FREE monthly wine tastings Vibe: specialty wine shop run by a wine connoisseur Parking: street ==The Wine Tastings== I love these monthly events to taste about 5-6 wines for a specific theme. It's great for beginners who either blindly pick a new wine or just stick with the only wines they know. What I like about the selected wines is that some can be quite different that get you to expand your palate and identify a new favorite type of wine/flavor profile that you had no idea you would be interested in. The tastings are free events that include either Mr. Johnson or a specialty speaker explaining each of the wines, the history of the winery or region, and suggestions of when to enjoy each wine. There's never pressure to buy a wine from that tasting, but I have found myself leaving with a new bottle or notes about ones I might get in the future. Overall, a fantastic event I'd highly recommend!

It is of a dinner scene that is telling a story. I like mural and I like this one a lot because they are telling a story and it is taking up the entire wall

It's good to know that even 6 years ago I liked Old Town…read more But now....I LOVE Old Town! 5 stars!! I think the biggest difference now is that I drink beer. Back when I wrote my first review, in the good, old days of 2012, I lived on the same street as Old Town and it was easy to get to and had wine that I liked in my preferred price range (so...sweet, white and cheap...just like me! Hey-ooo! :-P) Now, I will regularly go out of my way to make a stop at Old Town. And these days it is primarily for their top notch beer selection! I am always prepared for the cold when I visit Old Town now, because I know I am going to be perusing the beer cave for quite some time. They rank among the top four places in Louisville I excitedly go to, in order to explore special, hard to find, interesting, sought after beer. Even if I am not looking for something specific, I am going to find something I already like if not something that piques my interest enough to try! The biggest plus of a visit to Old Town, aside from the friendly and helpful staff, is that you can buy just about all the beer options as SINGLES. This is huge. This changed my beer-drinking life. I have been able to try so many more beers because of this. When you aren't roped in to buying a four (or more) pack and the beer is 'fancy' and costs $5 or more per beer....doors suddenly open up! Old Town is in the middle of the Highlands, so parking can be tricky. They have a few dedicated parking spaces as well as a drive-thru (if you know exactly what you want) but beyond that it is going to be street parking. They still carry a great selection of wine and liquor, as well as some snack type things (thing cheese and crackers and chocolates). You should absolutely pay a visit to Old Town Wine and Spirits. Just leave some beer for me!

Being a busy Friday night I felt my request was delaying other customers so I was leaving thanking him for his diligent search. He suggested I stop by the next day and he would keep looking for the other "letters". As I was leaving the next day, he assured me that he could also make some calls for me and to just stop by on my way out. Sure enough by 11:00am on Saturday he had located the other bottles and I left Louisville very happy and looking forward to my return visit! The best customer service I have ever had or heard of and I'm past my 75th birthday.

There is a white male, 6''2, 50ish, heavily accented Scottish customer named Keith that hovers…read morearound the property smoking cigarettes and drinking out of an open container for hours. He is always drunk, smells like he hasn't bathed in weeks, and likes to mess with customers in a self serving act of utter cowardice to feed his ego. I have had to walk away from his unwarranted attacks numerous times and would never advise anyone to ever go there in the off chance you would encounter this person. He habitually seeks to harm and intimidate those who he perceives to be vulnerable by insulting their appearance and other Sophmoric and tasteless banter. When he is trying to pick a fight with you, he gets within 2 inches of your face and all one can digest is an extremely repugnant breath of intoxication, cigarette smoke, and pungent body odor. On 3/7/2020, "Keith" threatened with my life in the store and outside when leaving and I was forced to call 911 for fear of my safety. I have an 11 year old daughter named Ella and an 8 year old named Max and my life with them flashed before my eyes. I have no ax to grind, the employees are great the prices are great and location is fantastic. Had to post just to let the Highlands community of the risk. I'm not trying to be a hero. I have connected with the Fifth Division of the Metro Police and they have committed to closely monitoring the area and hopefully this isn't a problem going forward. If you are harassed, please call the local police. You are not a victim.
