Best Wine Shops In Washington Near Me

JACK HOWARD: This is by far the best wine store in DC, The wonderful knowledgeable team and the man himself Bassam, always knows his stuff and works with your budget whatever that may be. Lots of great finds in here and interesting conversations.

Mike Sternad: Calvert Woodley’s is back! I always went there for the joy of discovering new things (Absente) and exploring (new whiskeys) AND the expert advice. How do you know which cognac under $100 delivers great smoothness and depth? And what are the new sipping bourbons worth trying? Should I take an entire case of that recommended Pinot noir? What cheeses are on sale this week? FAO Schwartz for adults, but it takes being live for the full effect 🤠

Raqiba Worthy: Super friendly and knowledgeable staff of both the products and the area. Will definitely shop with them again.

Justin Blackford: I’ve made several purchases in a short period of time and this place processes and ships FAST. I’ve been very happy with the consistency. Items have always arrived well packed and in good shape. The prices are the prices. I have no complaints here. No one likes posting secondary prices, especially in the Bourbon market right now, but they are hardly out of line with competition. If you want a specific bottle, they’ve done a great job sourcing it, but be prepared to pay to market. My only complain is email customer service. I’ve sent a handful of notes asking questions and have only ever received one response. Disappointing. Not sure why there’s an email address listed if the company isn’t going to regularly respond. That aspect is likely going to affect whether I continue to make regular purchases.

Paul: Fantastic selection!! A bit tucked away in the building so make sure you keep your eyes open when trying to visit.

Katherine Koehler: Amazing wine store, love their wine club and events. So glad this is in my neighborhood!

Scott Biggs: A small discovery of wonderful amazement. If you are a wine nerd or not , go see Vanessa and staff at Vitis. Thoughtful manicured selections from around the world makes it worth the stop every time. I absolutely adore this place.

Reina Pullen: Best wine shop! It has the best selection of wines and is very affordable. Keep up the good work and excellent service.

Sophie Osborn: DCanter is still my go-to-wine store in DC even though I moved across the city three years ago!! They have everything you could want: unique bottle selection, highly knowledgeable staff who always help you pick out the perfect bottle, a great range of price points and lots of affordable, delicious wines, and incredible education and tasting events! I’ve been introduced to so many neat and interesting varietals and styles through DCanter that I wouldn’t have had the confidence to pick out at a regular store. The website is also impeccably organized and they offer deliveries in the DMV area. They’ve been a wine lifeline for me during the pandemic and have helped me in my wine nerd journey!

Reid Dvorak: Awesome place, excellent staff, friendly and great local and choice adult beverages

Katie Schultz: Latin wine-focused shop with a large selection of alcoholic beverages, non-alcoholic drinks, food, and gifts. They have a fantastic monthly wine club and are always pouring free tastings of featured wines and holding fun events. A neighborhood gem with friendly staff...you can’t miss it!

Alvaro Bedoya: This place is too good. The broccolini melt with mahon, manchego, and white bean purée was so good it was hard to explain. The smoked eggplant dip, same. The tortilla, you guessed it. Best part are the owners/staff, who treat you more like old friends than customers.

Not ur average Name: I found a couple Bottles of Macallan at a great price.. it was in stock as well and one of them has been pretty much out of stock at many places and those that did have it still, had an expensive mark up price!! So I was really skeptical when I found it on this website for an outstanding price!!! It was a “truly good deal to believe it” kind of thing.. so I ordered them and again I was skeptical that I was getting the real deal and not being scammed out of money! My shipment arrived Saturday (it had a few delays getting here however, it wasn’t this liquor store’s fault) so after the delays it was due to arrive today however, I was greeted with a great surprise and it was delivered This last Saturday when it was originally rescheduled to arrive.. I finally got around to opening the package to see if I had received the real deal.. as I held my breath while carefully opening the package, I was delighted to see 1 of the Macalla drink box.. I pulled it out to check it over and it was all in one piece. I minor dent but I can’t complain.. it wasn’t done during shipment as the shipping box was in great condition with no puncture wounds or dents. I checked the bottle over to make sure it was indeed a Macallan and that the seal wasn’t broken when it arrived so I knew I had the real thing. I wrapped it back up and put it back in the shipping box and grabbed the one I was really looking forward to that I really had a hard time finding in stock and not paying for it with my child’s life (exaggerating but you get my point regarding cost) and I pulled the box out and it indeed seemed to be the real thing.. the box is really pretty colour.. I pulled the bottle out of the box to inspect it, and the seal was intact and it was the real thing!!!! I’m extremely Ex static with my bargain finds and that it was exactly as advertised on this liquors website!!! The person I bought these for is a huge Macallan Fan… they will be so over the moon!!! Thank you Connecticut Ave Wine & Liquor for the great find and for them being the real deal!!! You will have made a grown person (not me) cry!!! I definitely highly recommend this business!!!

Chad David: Great selection of wine and spirits. Staff is friendly and helpful! They also host in store tastings too!

Jack Nugent: Bought a growler here for my home brew kombucha, it was way cheaper than anything I could find online and the staff was very friendly. Will be coming back!

Darlene jackson: 8/27/21, visting from NY I decided to stop in looking for HENDRICKS GIN and to my surprise they had 3 selections 2 were specified as " Lunar & Orbium" The attendant commented that they come out once a year with the 2 selections and they go fast so I bought the 2 new selctions to take back to NY.

michael nunziato: Found these guys online while searching for a very hard to find 2015 wine. Called them to make sure that they did indeed have the year I was looking for. From the moment I called they were polite and helpful. Ended up ordering a case since the price was so great. Delivery was super fast and perfect. Thanks again! PS will be making future orders.

Rennie Meyers: Seconding all the great reviews — we’re lucky to have Irving Wine and Spirits in Mt. Pleasant! They punch above their weight for the size of the store, with a great variety and good price point. Beer selection always interesting, too, and covers some of the DMV brewers that are hard to find elsewhere.

Ryan Rieboldt: Big moves, happened upon Batch 13 on accident and loved the selection and display! Surprised how many various beer options were available as well as the tequila and bourbon choices. If I’m ever back in the area will absolutely stop by to see what other goodies I can snatch up. Cheers!
