Plus he always has a good selection & is totally willing to special order something if you ask.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36892255.post-90180370036691462822011-09-30T21:22:31.189-04:002011-09-30T21:22:31.189-04:00Personal service.

Unlike other stores in the neighborhood, they don't make me feel like a doofus for my limited knowledge of wines! And they never push the more expensive option on you -- they understand buying on a budget. Mr. Friello and Randy always welcome you with the biggest smiles. I can't rave enough about them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36892255.post-43591634760320270052011-09-30T12:23:11.539-04:002011-09-30T12:23:11.539-04:00I was pleasantly surprised to find Simply Naked an...I was pleasantly surprised to find Simply Naked an 'unoaked' wine there!

I go here now since Vintage Cellars closed last year. <br />I never liked Smith & Vine: the workers have attitudes and the owners are fake. I don't go to their 2 other businesses either.<br />The 'other Scotto shop' isn't bad, but again the owners are a bit nasty.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36892255.post-34206486749556559012011-09-30T11:03:49.271-04:002011-09-30T11:03:49.271-04:00I usually go to this one now since the liquor stor...I usually go to this one now since the liquor store closed near President St on Smith. I like their selection a lot better than Smith and Vine. S&V tend to specialize in more expensive wines that probably a more wine savvy person would appreciate. CG Wine and Liquors has a better selection of known inexpensive brands. Price wise they seem to be pretty good too. I just wish their store was at the Carroll St stop.Robnoreply@blogger.com
