For a place I've been frequenting for over a year, I'm ashamed at myself for not writing a review of the best wine store in Charlotte.
Points of Interest
1. Clean, Sleek, Friendly, Informative, Easy Going/Not Stuffy.
2. The way Winestore has their store set up it takes all the guess work out of buying wine. The store is split into Whites and Reds and then further divides it by light, medium, full. The placards that accompany the wine break it down to what you will find in the wine and what it pairs well with.
3. They have a tasting machine for whites and reds, so if you're not sure what you want to buy go ahead and give it a try, however don't try too many or you'll walk out with more wine that you intended to buy. I know from personal experience.
4. One of the best things about his place is their email list. They send out weekly emails about wine they're putting on their tasting machine, tastings their having in their store, and deals on wine they receive from their distributors. Some of these deals are so hot you can save $35 on a $70 bottle of wine, just to name one.
