Weinhandlung Machmer

I was looking to purchase a good and decent bottle of red wine as a thank you present today, so I was recommend to check out the Weinhaus Machmer in Steglitz. While scanning through the shelf’s and getting a first impression myself the really friendly shop assistant approached me. I really like this as she let me have a first intake and then came along instead of jumping straight onto me. I briefly explained her, what I was looking for and she took me for a little tour along the big reds they offer. Overall all wines were moderate and good prized for the quality they offer. Your one was really attentive and talked me through different wines she would have recommend and gave me infos about the grapes, the whole company and their quality promise without trying to push any wine onto me nor upsell. You could really feel she was passionate about the wine and really wanted to help me make the right choice. In the end I took a bottle of the Spätburgunder a rich, full-​bodied red with a fruity finish from the Rhine-​Hesse region, I matched a dark chocolate which they offer too and was happy with my gift purchase. Of course I could not leave the shop without getting myself a bottle of their Carbernet Mitos. While we talked through those different gift options this one just got my attention and it would have been a shame not to take. Thanks god its Friday today as I cant wait to open this bottle over the weekend.
