Went in for my 25th birthday to expand my palate & was given great suggestions and kind service! Despite not really liking red wine, I ended up leaving with a red wine I quite enjoy!

The classiest wine store in town.

Please don’t waste your $$$ that does not know how to interact/treat a customer with common courtesy instead have an irritated demeanor for bringing in bottles of wine (I called and informed that the corks broke half way through, so was asked to bring them in!). He struggled to open one of the bottles of wine with the broken cork that was stuck half way through! Then proceeds to be irritated and informs me that it’s my fault that I don’t know how to open a bottle of wine!!! There are several reasons why a cork breaks in the bottle common in older wines or due to improper storage and also improper techniques (mainly not using a proper cork opener) but was told the reason was because I, ‘the customer’ does not know how to open a bottle of wine! The wine is good by his Highness’s expert opinion so I was supposed to just take them and get lost. The fact that my experience was ruined at my party was not his concern! I patronized this place but it is definitely my last. Very disappointing. Just the sheer interaction with the gentleman was not worth my time or my dime.

Always my favorite wine shop in DC! The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable, and the selection is impeccable, from small family vineyards to the big known quality names. Also great for craft liquors. A wonderful little neighborhood gem.
