WineNot Boutique

We visited WineNot for a private wine tasting to start off a bachelorette party and I cannot say enough about how amazing of a time we had. You could tell that Svetlana took the time to hand pick out each wine and she told us a great story about each wine. Each had a connection back to «love» or a «first kiss». She made it special and really tied everything to the reason we were there. Everyone raved about what a great time they had and it was a wonderful way to start the night!
The shop itself is amazing and the wine was outstanding. I can’t recommend WineNot enough and I can’t wait to go back for the other events she hosts.
PS– They made planning the tasting a breeze. Easy to get a hold of and extremely timely with email communication. It was the easiest part of planning the whole weekend! Thanks!!!

What a great place! I had the opportunity to attend a private function hosted by the owner Svetlana. She was a delight and really knows her wine and food pairings. A very nice collection of items not found in the average liquor store. Definitely worth a visit!

A great small, indy wine store in downtown Nashua. The owner, Svetlana, is incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. A medium size wine selection is found here, but the quality makes up for the lack of size. The owner is very hands on in picking great names from different regions of the world and this is the only place in the state you will find some of them. They also offer wine tastings on Wednesday nights. It’s a great place and location with an awesome staff and decent prices. A definite need to stop place for any wine fan.

Earlier this summer I purchased a groupon for the Wine 101 class and attended with some friends last weekend. What a great way to spend a Friday evening! I knew nothing about wine, yet the class was informative, not at all intimidating and delicious!
Svetlana is extremely knowledgeable, engaging and clearly loves her work.
I will be coming back for wine, cheese, balsamic, olive oil and free tastings!

This is ma-​n-​pa boutique-​style wine shop at its best. Of course that its selection size can’t be compared w/​other big boxes. But the fact that they run regular (and free) wine tastings plus the fact that the team is so passionate about wines make up for its small selection size. Besides, when it comes to wines, quality always trumps quantity as I’m one especially prone to ‘analysis paralysis’. Price wise, if you’re a member, you get 10% off all wines except the featured wines during tastings which are already discounted. A small price to pay to support local business. I wish they would grow more than two shops soon…

Hi–
I had just recently moved to Nashua, New Hampshire and fell in love with this wine boutique. It is indeed the perfect location for the Wine Shop in the heart of Nashua downtown. It has the best wine selection, a great variety of quality cheeses, and wine accessories.
It has been ranked «The Best of The Best Wine Shop of NH 2011 & 2012» by Hippo, «The Best Wine Store of Greater Nashua 2011» by Nashua Telegraph, «The Best Wines of Greater Nashua 2011» by Nashua Telegraph, «The only A rated Wine Shop of NH» by the Better Business Bureau of NH.
Svetlana (the owner) has great palates because she selects only high quality wines from great regions all over the wine world and best vintages as well. Plus she will special order wines that you don’t see on her shelves, or create perfect gift basket for any occasion!
Boutique offers wines priced anywhere from the low $ 10s to $$$, but keep in mind, any single bottle you buy from here (whether pricey or not), has been tasted by an expert Svetlana (WSET and sommelier).
The wine shop offers complimentary wine tasting events every Wednesday and Saturday with a new wine selection every week! Also, Svetlana organizes private wine tasting events (such as baby shower, or even bachelorette party), and special wine classes often hosting the actual wine maker or producer. Recently, she offered a trip to Piedmont, Italy where you can get a real wine experience!
I am looking forward to each Wednesday wine tasting where I can see Svetlana, enjoy cozy family atmosphere, meet amazing people, and savor white or red wine! That’s probably one of the coolest parts of the Wine Shop — the staff is super knowledgeable about the products they carry and how to consume them to their fullest :)
Cheers!

Great shop and very knowledgeable and personable owner.
We recently attended a Pinot Noir tasting there and learned a lot and had a great time. Sventlana obviously loves what she does and is very approachable.
You don’t have to know anything about wine to come into her shop and leave with a very nice bottle of something that suits you.

If you don’t know what kind of wine you need for an occasion or gift, this is the place to go. Svetlana will help you with whatever you need! She can find it for the right price as well. Check them our for their tastings too. Usually she’ll serve unique cheese with it and have other local vendors there with samples. Svetlana also runs classes on how to taste wine, different types of wine and has had wine dinners!

Now this privately owned, cleverly named, little shop is quite nice. i picked up a bottle wine there and spoke to the owner and she really knew her stuff and was definitely passionate about the selection she had. Unfortunately they don’t have too much variety but what it lacks in selection they make it up with the wines they have. They have wine tastings on Tuesday and Thursdays… i don’t remember exactly but its a fun little place to taste some wine.
Definitely a MUST!

Great wine selection at WineNot. The owner is knowledgeable and helpful with selections. Great place to pick up gifts for the wine enthusiast.

More than a wine shop.
Svetlana offers wine lovers at all levels the opportunity to expand their palate through free weekly tastings and a variety of special educational workshops; my favorite being the blind varietal tastings. At WineNot the consumer can gain a better understanding & appreciation for wine and support a small main street business at the same time.
When in Nashua it’s worth a stop.

Owning a wine shop in NH is a ballsy endeavor. Considering the way that the liquor system is set up here, it’s difficult for any such place to flourish. In order to do so, the owner has to have a genuine desire to serve and offer additional value. That’s what Svetlana does at WineNot boutique.
Although the selection is limited in size, its overall quality is very good. This largely has to do with Svetlana and her understanding of the tastes of her clientele. New and unique labels from around the world rotate through her inventory and allow for new and exciting wine experiences. If you have questions or are stumped when looking to buy a gift or pair a wine with a meal, her and her staff is knowledgeable and eager to assist.
One of the other ways she’s decided to add value is through a series of classes and private tastings that she regularly holds. I’ve never attended; however I’ve heard they are quite cool.
My only reservation is that the wine is a bit marked-​up. This reservation may have more to do with me than reality; however for those who are not fully immersed into wine and scavenging the racks at the NH Liquor Store, this place offers a unique value. Svetlana knows the wines intimately and can make sure that you’ll walk away with the experience that you were looking for when you walked in.
Four stars for the value add! Cheers!

This is a fabulous wine shop. Wonderful selection of incredible wines for every budget. You won’t find these in the state liquor store.
Svetlana, the shop owner is a trained sommelier and is extremely knowledgeable and adept at selecting wines. Even if you are not sure what you like, she has this amazing way of asking just the right questions to insure you get the perfect wine.
In addition to the wines she also stocks several wonderful cheeses and gourmet items. I can tell you from personal experience, the cheeses are wonderful and make the grocery store versions (if they even have something similar) pale in comparison.
Don’t forgot to stop by on Wednesday evenings (and some Saturday’s) for free wine tastings. It’s a great opportunity to try before you buy.
Stop in, you won’t regret it.

Ever wander the liquor store trying to figure out what wine to buy? You can go by a friend’s recommendation or by the little blurbs on the back of the bottle. Or even by some card that says Wine Spectator rated the 2002 91 points only to find the shelf stocked with bottles of 2004.
As Reagan once said: «Trust, but verify».
Nothing beats tasting wine first hand. So this is why I recommend WineNot. Not because of their selection (it’s a small shop after all), but because they have a free tasting every Wednesday. The wines vary by whoever is pouring that week. Sometimes it’s five wines i could care less about, but every once in a while there’s something worth raising an eyebrow over and asking for a second pour. On those days I might leave with a bottle, sometimes two. Check them out.

Wonderful wine boutique in the heart of downtown Nashua. Svetlana, the owner/​sommelier, is both knowledgeable and gracious. Be sure to check out wine classes she conducts, as well as weekly wine tastings. Not only will she help you select a wine but she’ll help you select a cheese she carries to pair with the wine, as well.
Oh, P. S. She just won «Best of the Best» in NH from Hippo Press. Kudos!

I’m in downtown Nashua often and I enjoy stopping in to buy my wine from WineNot Boutique. Awesome selection of wine and a very knowledgeable owner in wine.

This is a great little shop that has offers not only great wines, but some gifty things if you need to bring something for the host/​hostess. There is a small selection of cheeses and I was able to pick up two loaves of fabulous bread (pecan & cranberry and pumpkin seed something, too good).
I will definitely be back for wine tastings and other events. Excited to see how this business will add to the already great line-​up on main Street Nashua.

WineNot is the newest wine boutique in Nashua, specializing in good-​value and collectible wines.
Owner, Svetlana, is wonderful and knowledgeable. She will help you choose the perfect wine! She has wine tastings every Wednesday evening, in her shop.
