Located…read morealong the main street, Wine List is in a most convenient spot and it doesn't hurt that the space is vast, but not overcrowded with alcohol displays. There is a great variety of items to choose from, including hard ciders. On our last visit, we looked for a specific red wine and we were helped immediately with finding a substitute since they didn't have it in stock. We normally deal with the same staff member, who is friendly and goes above and beyond to make sure you leave with the perfect product. You can't go wrong with Wine List, we've always left happy.

I was expecting to be blown away by the experience as this is the famous influencer Gary V's…read morefamily's store, where he got his start marketing. This business is what made him a multimillionaire, so I expected it to me magical. It was pretty ho hum. I lean towards the finer wines and liquors, so right off the bat it was disappointing. They didn't even have Tignanello in stock ... they said they could probably find a bottle online. The employees don't walk the floor ... there are lots of young-ish employees sitting at desks who have all the personality of robots. Seriously, after interacting with a few of them, I wondered if the store was closing because they seemed so put out to talk with me. The cashier was the same way. The upper level is where all the liquor is ... a very good selection. Not quite Total Wine ... They had very few rum brands and very few bottles of good gin. They did have a few bottom-level allocated items ... but no Forteleza, Pappy, Weller, etc. The markup was also incredibly high ... $150 for a bottle of Old Fitz 7 Year old bourbon. That's $70 at Total Wine. I left with a few cheap bottles at a very good price ... but they didn't have a lot of high end wines for purchase. Mostly $12 - $25 on the shelves. They had some 'special wines' they were pushing hard, showcasing a 96 point scored wine they claimed was $100 but marked down to $30. The 96 rating came from James Suckling (the biggest scammer in wine ratings) ... after a little googling, I saw that the average score was 92 and no other stores seemed to carry this. It was just okay. I was very disappointed they didn't have much Bordeaux and what they did have was a mish mash of average vintage years. Overall, I think I will skip coming back. It wasn't really anything special in terms of prices or selection. The little high end international grocery store and cheese shop was pretty cool though. There's a place called Gary's Wine about 20 minutes away, which I like a lot better.

Now this is my kind of library!…read more Wines galore - everything you can imagine. And organized! This place is two stories. The main area is wall-to-wall aisles organized by wine varietals. The upstairs area houses a lot of specialty wines, including Kosher, and a bougie wine cellar with rare and expensive bottles kept at temperature. They also have a market section where you can purchase meats, cheeses, pastas, and other little goodies. This place is truly a one-stop-shop. You can find an inexpensive bottle to enjoy, or you can find a big, special occasion bottle. Jim G helped us locate several of the wines we were on a mission to find. He spent nearly 30 minutes with us and ensured we found everything we wanted. He also offered some great recommendations based upon our favorites. We so appreciated his passion and expertise! Maybe it's better we don't live close to this place because we'd spent way too much money way too often!

Came back, returned them the next day and the guy behind the counter told me that they don't take anything back per the receipt and I said, but these are stale and old they're not chewable and basically he told me it's my problem, not his. This liquor store is selling old and stale items just to get your money. Lousy customer service he could see and hear that they were as hard as a rock and didn't care I will be posting the picture and this story all over my social media. DI NOT BUY FROM THIS STORE!

I find their prices are most often a notch under other wine/liquor stores (even wine.com), so I make a point of buying here, especially if I'm buying extra for guests or a gifts. If I ever need hard liquor, I would definitely buy at Wine Barrel - also excellent selection at the best prices.

Fair amount of IPAs but not many domestic beers which may be intentional. A larger scale liquor spot like Bottle king is where you'll want to be to maximize your options but if you're already in Montclair this will be one of a few choices. My issue is the blatant mark ups. Not a $1 or $2 mark up that I'd expect, no! $3 and $4's! 12 pack of Truly's for $20, is crazy. Even the guy behind the counter remarked that things are pretty overpriced. Dunno if he was trying to be funny or really felt that way but it was a nice laugh. It's nice it's here but Grove Liquors definitely won't be my first choice.

I want to specifically highlight Phillip, who consistently goes above and beyond in creating a welcoming and positive experience. He is professional, kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely charismatic. He makes customers feel comfortable, takes the time to answer questions, and represents what a neighborhood wine shop should be. Interactions with him are always pleasant and positive. Unfortunately, my experiences with Stefon have been consistently negative. This is not an isolated incident, he is routinely rude and dismissive. While Stefon is knowledgeable about wine, customer service is also a fundamental part of the job, and product knowledge alone does not excuse disrespectful behavior. Most recently, during an incoming snowstorm, I called to ask whether store hours would be affected, as many local businesses were adjusting their schedules. Instead of receiving a straightforward response, I was spoken to disrespectfully both over the phone and in person and was told that if I had "gone on Google," I would have known the store hours. That response was unnecessary and unprofessional given the circumstances. Pier Wines is located in a residential neighborhood with many local customers who frequent the store, and customer service truly matters. Employees like Phillip, who consistently provide a welcoming, professional, and knowledgeable experience, are the reason customers want to return, while repeated negative interactions with Stefon have had the opposite effect.
