Sadly, I had to miss my best friends 30th birthday trip to Asheville. I wanted to do something special for her and send a celebratory gift. Naturally champagne seemed appropriate! Once I called Asheville Wine and explained the situation, the staff was beyond helpful. They selected a champagne and a rose for me, gift wrapped them, enclosed a note, and delivered them to my friend. Asheville Wine went above and beyond and helped make a memorable birthday for my friend. Thank you!
Excellent staff, great selection and easy parking. An Asheville institution!
Fantastic selection of wines from around the world. Friendly staff will assist in finding that particular vintage or winery you were looking for.
When you travel you have to be aware of the liquor laws. Well in NC its not one shop has it all, therefore many stores that have wine have very limited selections.. no so with Asheville wine granted its not your big box super store like in CO or other but it has an amazing selection and very knowledgeable caring staff. The people make any business and the people are superior.
Great,good store,many selections n much more....!
While we really appreciate the measures in place for covid (love the curbside idea, wine stores can be a lot to take in!), we waited over 20 minutes outside (2 other couples left in this time). In an effort to social distance, customers are beings ignored and unfortunately being told that is a long time to wait for one bottle of wine by the the staff wasnt kind. Maybe check to see who is waiting occasionally?
Advertises in-store shopping but they wouldn’t let us in. We are in from out of town and this was my husband’s favorite wine shop It’s fine to do only curb side but don’t advertise in-store shopping if it isn’t offered please. I just took a screen shot where it says in-store shopping 9/11/2020. We get why it is curb side, I’m just saying please remove the “in-store shopping” from your google ad.
Everything is excellent with this wine market
An excellent selection of fun and unique wines. They really have a wide variety of wines for every taste. Some of the more unique wines include smaller producers from lesser known regions.Also be sure to check out their local wine selection for a great representation of North Carolina Wine.
Good people of Asheville, rejoice! For this is a fabulous wine market right in downtown. Excellent location where everyone walks by in this lovely city. Wines from Spain and France and Italy and California...no country is left out and all flavours are available.
Very wide selection, a free tasting from 2-5, and a very knowledgeable staff. It was nice that they had the self serve wine dispenser by the glass. Would definitely visit again.
It was great. It was Craig Baker selections with Aux Bar deliciousness dinner. Great.
Love the new ownership. Owner (Larry) made my wife and I feel at home as we attended their Saturday afternoon tasting. Also, the mechanized wine dispenser is a joy and great opportunity to sampling many varieties.
Amazing wine shop! They had a free wine tasting with affordable wines and the staff was incredible. We just dropped in randomly and ended up leaving with 3 wonderful bottles of wine.
Five or more years ago this place was the best in town. The old owner retired and the place does not have the good selection or pricing it did back then.
You will find fines selections of wines there. In my opinion they provide the highest quality. Cant say the same about the service - some of the employees are often rude.
What a lovely place to purchase wine and try a few too. Well stocked and lots of variety.
Impressive selrction. I had tasted 162 grapes and they still found me 3 new additions.
All the staff werent wearing masks. I was though.
Was looking for a cute wine bar since we were staying nezt door. Nice people but we did the wine tasting station. Four of the wines ran out and tasted musty like theyve been there awhile. Would recommend they switch them out more often.
Great place! If you like wine check it out.
Great selection
The proprieter knew his wine and was able to recommend superior choices to our mass-market wine, namely; barefoot chardonnay and J. Lohr cabernet. Unfortunately, I dont remember his recommendations, but you can stop by and discover for your self.
Excellent service and recommendations. Free Saturday wine tasting too!
Everyone in here was amazing and very knowledgeable. Very much enjoyed the atmosphere.
Great selection and a knowledgeable staff. If you are looking to try a new wine and dont want to overspend, youll find nice option here.
One of the best wine shops ever
Good selection and reasonable prices. Lots of international options
Expert advice. Enjoyable tastings. Superb selection.
A great selection of wines. Many are sourced by AWM.
We stopped by before dinner one night to pick up an item not widely available that I had read about in the local newspaper. I would sooner order this item online directly from the source and pay the additional postage next time I need it rather than purchase it again at this shop. When I attempted to pay for the item the person who was manning the register suddenly had to do something in the back room. He called to another worker who was stocking shelves (not helping another customer) to work the register and who apparently pretended not to hear. We stood around for a few minutes before the second worker decided to finally come up and check us out. NIce.
Lovely selection of wine and has several bottles available for tasting. Staff is very enjoyable and knowledgeable about their stock.
Great selection and reasonable prices. Always have what Im looking for when I drop in.
Great selection, knowledgeable people, and now a better bar area for wine by the glass
As someone who doesnt know too much about wine, the staff really helped guide me to find a wine that really hit the spot. Fantastic customer service.
Very helpful and knowledgeable staff and with a large variety of wines all over the world, I found some that brought back such good memories, I had not seen anywhere else.
I think this store is a true treasure for a city the size of Asheville. Not only do they have a very large and varied wine selection, and uniformly knowledgable and helpful employees to assist customers in finding the right choice, but there is a surprisingly great selection of cheeses and other goodies in the rear of the store that is priced very competitively, and more often than not, more cheaply than other stores in town.I have been a customer for more than 8 years and at one point, took advantage of their rental storage space for my wine library. I loved this store when Eberhard Heide ran it and still do since Larry took over.
Good selection and helpful staff
Excellent selection of wine and great atmosphere
Wonderful selection of wines.
Those negative reviews? Dont believe them! This place is first class all the way.
Good selection reasonable prices
Super selection; staff verrry knowledgeable; Larry knows personally many of the vinters of the wines he carries.
Great selection of wine and local products. Took a star because some of the local craft beer is priced too high.
Excellent knowledge and great selection .
I know...its just a wine store. Look closer and try their tastings and even classes and dinners. See, told ya.
Best wine store one Western North Carolina.
Plenty of options with great prices!
Have shopped there for over 20 yrs and never encountered a rude employee in fact just the opposite.Great selection of fine wines at competitive prices.
Staff just stares at u instead of trying to help
Very friendly and helpful!
They sell sake but only a small variety.
Looked nice but the person behind the counter was very rude when I asked a question about a particular product.
Superb selection, expert advice
All sorts of different wines
Basic wine shop.
Good selection
Try the muscadine wine!
Expensive, touristy, but hey, wine and chocolate!
Ok place.
The staff were very friendly
No mead? Really?
Larry knows wine!
