Just found out about this place, one of the employees said they've been around for about 8 months or so which was news to me. Pretty big store and probably the nicest wine shop/liquor store I've ever seen. As you walk in you notice the massive wine selection separated by country in nice wooden racks. The beer selection is no joke either though. The beer cooler is all the way in the back containing a very impressive selection of 6pks and 4pks. A wall parallel to the cooler contains 12pks on one side and about 8 shelf units of bombers and singles. As I went back to the front I noticed they had beer a kegorator with beer to sample; they included anchor Christmas, dogfish chicory stout and captain Lawrence Imperial IPA. The captain Lawrence was deliciously fresh and extremely good, a new favorite of mine. Awesome store with a friendly, helpful staff.

This is the old dotcom wines. I gave it a good rating when it was the old place...but hold on, this place is awesome. They have tons of wine and spirits but they had to have tripled their beer section. They must have close to 1000 beers including many hardto find items. I didn't even know Goose Island was in Connecticut but they were sampling Goose Island Sophie and Honkers yesterday and the prices are amazing. I don't drink Bud but they had 30 packs for $19.99...the lowest I have ever seen in Connecticut. Check it out

Great Selection..One of the better import selections I've seen around, by far the biggest craft can selection anywhere, awesome dogfish head tasting going on while i was there, really enjoyed the black & blue, haven't had that one before. Beautiful store to the point where you would almost think it would be over priced, But that couldn't be further from the truth, fantastic pricing. Very helpful staff, spent some time chatting it up with Conor the beer manager there. Over all very impressed. Would definately recommend!
