| - I visit the Total Wine a couple of times a year. Why only a couple? It's dangerous!
I went in to buy ONE bottle of wine as a gift. Next thing I knew, an hour had passed, my arms were full of four bottles of wine, I was searching for a basket to add a fifth, and I still hadn't decided which bottle to pick up as the gift!
Total Wine has aisle upon aisle and shelf upon shelf of wines from all over the world. And local NC wines as well. And for those of us who enjoy wine but aren't fine wine connoisseurs, the bottles are simply categorized, the shop provides a description of the flavor of each, they label monthly favorites and new varieties, and each bottle is discernably priced. It's like wine for dummies!
The prices always amaze me, too. I don't like to spend a lot on a bottle of wine and enjoy finding a bargain, especially if it's something palatable, new, and comes in a nice looking bottle. I'm all about packaging!
Don't get me wrong, though. Total Wine also carries a huge selection of top-of-the-line choices and offers wine classes!
If you're looking for a bottle of wine for a gift or just a nice evening at home, pass by the wine section at your local Harris Teeter and give Total Wine a try instead. You'll be amazed at all the wine they have...and get a great deal in return! And if you're more into beer, they have a large selection of beers from around the world that I've never even heard of, too!
p.s. The French wine in the pink label that I got for the gift was a hit! Everyone loved the packaging and wanted to know where I got such a beautiful bottle of wine. Do I know how to pick 'em or what?
