Very overpriced and VERY rude service. Save your money and get better service anywhere else. I haven’t seen such horrible customer service anywhere. Whoever answers the phones (owner or not) should be fired.

Good selection, but I bought a bottle of wine that was entirely too oxidized. Undrinkable. I guess I’m out of $55.

Review №3

Had a less than perfect experience there. I happen to be a wine collector and thought I found a local shop to purchase some cult type wines. I spoke to two elderly gentlemen that seemed nice and they found a lower end wine from the group I was looking for; it happens to be a great bottle regardless. They were unable to find pricing. I can see that. Based on them not knowing a few major high end producers I get that some bottles probably dont cycle frequently there, no big deal. They scramble to figure it out.Heres the kicker... 5 minutes later they hand the task to a young man working there that couldnt even pronounce the name of the vineyard and he decides to use Vivino as his pricing source. Not only is this a poor source for information as he could be digging into the stores profits by not using some logic and calculating their actual cost, adding on their profit margin needed as a shop and then providing a client a price.He left it at looking at the average pricing. WS Pro Low has everything from 219 to 525, Vivino has a similar range. Mind you, ONE bottle is above 500 driving the average up. This is basic arithmetic but when you let someone that neither has knowledge nor interest in the exercise handed to them you end up with this poor result.Naturally after seeing reputable distributors like Benchmark etc offer this bottle at 240ish rather than an averaged out 350 I attempt to discuss it with him but get attitude.This young man actually asked me:Store: Are those distributors open ? Me: yes... theyre large national distributors Store: then buy this there I dont know the people that own Gulf Liquors but I would wager that they wouldnt want a relatively decent wine collector to be pushed to national chains mainly because their team, after scrambling for 5-10 minutes couldnt figure out basic pricing on their own inventory basically get told to go to hell. I purchased the smaller items I had on the counter and went and made a considerable purchase directly next door at Crown.To Management:Its not the end of the world to tell a customer I dont know, can I have your number and get back to us with something logical. I am part of a larger than 3K national wine group with an obscene purchasing power when everyone is factored in and we are always trying to make local connections as we too work locally.Please, do your homework. Dont pawn off decisions like pricing on high end wine to an employee that himself stated he not only doesnt like wine but has no clue what hes looking at.Im giving you three stars as youre local to me. I will pass back by randomly one day for a similar purchase and hope this was an anomaly so when I edit this, I edit it in your favor and can happily report Ive found a local that has decent inventory which I can purchase Grand Crus, Cult wines and the like locally.Please share with the older gentleman the Chablis he wasnt familiar:Domaine Raveneau

Poor Customer Service. I was calling to see if they had a certain product, and when I asked the person on the phone how they were doing, they replied Bad and hung up the phone. Go to Big Game Liquors! Much better service.

Entered the store today with the intent of asking the owner volume pricing on purchase. Owner never let me finish what I wanted to say - missing on a sale opportunity. Very rude and nasty disposition.
