Emailed the shop and Steve then worked with me to pick some great wines. Nice value and exceptional service.
He delivered 24 bottles the next day and walked my parents through the wines.
He then took it upon himself to reorganize their wine cellar.
Truly amazing service!
Didn't have what we wanted but they were friendly
