Total Wine & More

Great Place. way better than Bev mo

Favorite new spot to buy my brew! They have everything! Give yourself some time because you will be here for a while trying to decide what to buy. Trust me, I was that client that shows up 10 minutes right before closing and stays for half an hour after.

When push comes to shove and shove turns into grind…, Total Winezzz has been my «go to» spot for years now; and we’re talking eons! I consider this place my official candy shop as I stop off to restock my bar and uhm… urr’…office, lol. Without a doubt does it HIT THE SPOT!
* So you don’t possess the mindset to frequent either of the aforementioned locations and would much rather avoid the pretentiousness of wineries and/​or congregating among any such wine snobs?
Look no further. Total Wine has got you covered!!!
From A to Z, and that’s Amsterdam to Zimbabwe, this store is certain to blow your mind!!! Walking in, fellow wine and booze enthusiasts are nothing short of entranced by the mountainous heights of bountiful berry bliss!
This particular location, in South Bay (Redondo to be precise) just off of Hawthorne Blvd., is like the rest —- an absolute treasure! Sequestering wines by sectors, Total Wine offers any and everything under the sun and manages to do so — BENEATH ONE ROOF!
— Beers — Ales and lagers — both domestic and imports. Yup they’re ALLLL here!
— Cordials — Fruits, creams, spicy, AND schnapps — Check!
— Wines — Ports, Pinots, Cabs, Zins, Merlots, Rieslings, Gewurztraminers — Double check!!!
— Mixers — Cranberry, Pineapple, OJ,…Uhm. Hmm. They can also be located here!
— …knowledgeable staff — Yezzir!
-…ROCK BOTTOM PRICES — Bay-​beh yazzz!
I remember when: (brace yourselves, there’s a story approaching)…
Years ago… thinking I was so damned cultured, I dined at an Italian spot that offered wine sampling prior to purchase selection.
I dabbled around with Zin, Rosato and Chianti’, coupled by a few whites and a handful of reds only to stumble upon a Pinot Noir that made me pop lock and drop!!!
Believe it or not and yes — I learned from this mistake, however I felt my friends and fam– should further experience my euphoria and was led to purchase 6 bottles of said wine from the restaurant at upwards of $ 22.00/per bottle for the holidays!!!
Suffice it to state, those that know better DO BETTER and upon visiting Total Wine in (Rancho Cucamonga, I believe it was) I located that VERY SAME wine at $ 3.95/bottle!
Dammit to hell!!!
Need I touch on, how the restaurant was required to OPEN the bottles of wine first (prior to my making the purchase), due to some regulatory provision and even more so, how I was unable to return either… say, one went flat,… within the process of delivery?
THIS —– ^ ^ solidified Total Wines to be a secondary home to me and I’ve been frequenting each location on the regular, thereon.
Bestowing Membership options to club participants as well as 10 cent (yes, you’re reading that correctly) — TEN CENT wine tastings from Friday — Sunday (1 – 5 or 6pm) and offering 4 – 6 varying vintages (with a 10% discount coupon, should you elect to purchase), there simply is NO going wrong at this joint leading me to my overdue and inevitable conjecture.
Provided you’re «Team BevMo», as most people initially are, …prior to commencing in your journey there, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you give Total Wines a go.
I’d be willing to play «Spin the Champagne bottle» on your becoming a fan!

They offer a great, massive selection of wines and spirits. What I like most: how they group wines by both varietal and style; the wide range of labels, some not seen in other chain wine stores. I also enjoy their tastings, which are almost free. I may not like what they’re pouring all the time, but at least they are interesting. And I don’t feel any pressure to buy. I’ve discovered some intriguing wines here and also found the go-​to wines that I love.

The wine section is huge! The wines span the globe. Each aisle is labeled by type of wine and region, which makes finding your favorite fermented grapes easy. In addition, the store displays helpful placards that describes wines for novices (like myself).
Total wine’s beer section is just as large as their wine section! And similar to the wine section, beers are labeled by type and region. Total wines’ beers range from your domestic staples like bud and miller, to your specialty craft beers from all over the world.
Besides an enormous selection of booze, total wine sells great gift sets. For instance, total wine offers fashionable wine cooler totes, fancy wine racks and awesome gift baskets (such as a wine and cheese gift basket). The best part about the gift sets is that they are really affordable and of high quality.

To the checkout girl Jennifer with the washed out pink hair. If you don’t like your job quit. Your piss poor attitude and unfriendliness makes me not want to come into the store. It’s called customer service learn about it. To the tall guy that helped me find whiskey I didn’t catch your name but you my friend rock! Thanks for helping me out. I’d come back if u had more people like him working. Sorry Jennifer didn’t mean to disturb you at YOUR JOB.

Love the extensive variety of products and selections. Much better than buying your alcohol at liquor stores. I always walk out with something new that I’ve never seen before or tried before. And their prices are not bad (barring items that I can get at Costco such as the Jack Daniels, Patron Silver, Crown Royal or Johnie Walker giant bottles) They have a rewards system as well so you get pts for your purchases, good to be used as discounts for future purchases. You will also get coupons in the mail, some $ 10 off $ 40 purchases and some special offers via email. So don’t forget to sign up the next time you’re there if you are not yet a member.

This place is amazing! A liquor superstore! They have every kind of alcoholic beverage you could possibly think of and more. I came here to look for something specific and ended up walking around for 45 min just looking at the plethora of options. I have been to Bevmo before and it’s cool but Total Wine will be my first stop from now on. The employees are friendly and helpful and they also have a rewards program.

A incredible selection of hard liquor and also beer and wine. The prices are very reasonable. Great for holiday season shopping, whether you are shopping for a party or for a gift. I had a great experience and the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable.

How is it possible that yesterday was my first time visiting this amazing place?!
I randomly walked into this place while visiting other businesses in the plaza, and I’m so glad I did, because I have a feeling I’ll be frequenting this place. I heard from one of their staff that they have about 8,000 different kinds of wine here, wow!
They had wine tasting in the middle of the store, you can taste 4 wines for just 10 cents, and can give a bit more if you like, which I did since it felt like a steal. Out of the 4 wines we tasted, we decided to purchase 2 bottles and received 10% off coupons for these bottles, which was awesome! I liked being able to taste the wine before purchase, since it’s always hard for me to randomly select wine, since I’m afraid I won’t like it-​so I was very grateful for these tastings and the 10% coupon.
The prices here are very reasonable. They also have staff walking around and providing assistance. I can’t remember the name of the guy who assisted us, but he was extremely helpful, and provided advice and info on the wine that we had in our basket. We walked out with 5 bottles of wine with no intentions of purchasing wine yesterday afternoon. If you buy 6 bottles, you can get an even bigger discount-​which in retrospect we should have done, but I’m sure we’ll have many opportunities in the future to take advantage of this.

This place gets 5 stars just based on the fact that they are open until 10 pm on Sundays lol. Last week I came here because I had a rough weekend and needed a drink. Everywhere else was closed but when I found out this place was still open it made my heart happy. I didn’t know exactly what I wanted to I was able to just walk around for a bit and choose from what they had. I’ve been before to buy Ace of Spades which is pretty expensive but this last time I just came for some beer and wine. Only thing I would say that could use some improvement is the customer service. Not enough people working. There was a long line when I went and the drink I bought was locked up so had to wait even longer for someone to open the fridge to get it.

I live right down the street from this total wine and I have been shopping here for three years. In that time I have learned that shopping here is a bittersweet trade off.
Let’s start with the sweet because I like to be positive :) you just can’t beat their prices, the selection is endless and the employees walking the aisles have expert knowledge and can recommend a great wine for anyone.
The bitter trade off is terrible front end service. To me this is a big trade since this is how you start and end your experience in the store. I’m honestly convinced that the employees have a game in which they see who can say the least amount of words to a customer while ringing them up. It’s actually impressive how silent they are. The only break in the silence is them talking to each other and act as though you are an inconvenience when you are trying to give them money.
So enough negative Nancy stuff. The store is clean, the product is super affordable and the people that work the aisles are knowledgeable and always willing to help. For those reasons I will continue to fuel my buzz with total wine :)

Very simply put. the BEST retail outlet for selection and prices. Very seldom have I found items priced lower at other outlets, but then again I don’t comparison shop all that much. I know where to go and what to look for in the Redondo Beach Store and I always come out with more than I had planned. The seasonal/​promotional tables and displays are well presented and selection is more than ample. Seriously, if this place rented rooms, I think I would live here!

Enormous selection of wine and other spirits… Champagne, sake, beer, etc! I was surprised to see how big this store was… resembled a warehouse full of drinks.
We just moved to Torrance and needed to stock up our wine rack. Prices were reasonable and we were able to find a good variety to bring home. We spent about $ 50 – 60 for 5 – 6 bottles of wine and sake. Can’t wait to try them all then come back to restock again.

I really can’t say enough regarding the beer selection down at Total Wines. The varieties of brews change to keep up with the seasonal releases and breadth of choices is still second to none.
So what if I just dropped $ 50 on beer? Considering you can purchase singles, you can load up with a huge variety, as opposed to committing to a six pack or case of one brew. Really convenient when you are looking to try something new. They also carry many beers in 12oz bottles that usually are only found in pint sized bottles. Again, great for purchasing a smaller sample sizes.
Not much else to say but my staple in the South Bay for beer.

Pretty much a bigger, cleaner version of BevMo. The workers seemed a lot more knowledgeable of what products they had as well. Plus they let us bring in our dog. I offered to carry him so we could choose a few beers real quick, but they said as long as he doesn’t bite we could let him walk on his leash.

This was my first time here!!! HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?!
This place is better than Bevmo which was been my go to for years. Not saying, I’ll stop going to Bevmo, but Total wine offers so much more.
I came for a particular beer, an hour later, I ended up with a lot more than a 6 pack. Everyone that works there was super friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. In the time, we were in there, a least 4 different employees walked by and asked if we were finding everything ok. The employees seem to know a lot about their selections and sounded like they had some good tips for different drinks.
Only down side, is that their signage is not really current. So often, you’ll be reading a label for tasting notes and then you’ll realize that it’s a different vintage than what was on the shelf.
I’ll definitely be back!

Give me all the alcoholssssss. Anything you want really. I come here for the amazing selection of craft. Some notables:
Julian’s Cherry Bomb Cider
Lost Abbey
the whole Belgium section really
Ok I won’t keep listing…
But if you need any type of alcohol for any occasion, this is your spot.
They also have mixers/​soda/​snacks/​cups/​drinking tools

Love Total Wine, especially when I find my favorite wines $ 5-​$ 10 less expensive than my regular stores! Staff is quite knowledgeable and provided some good recommendations as an alternative to a rather expensive Lodi Zinfandel. On another occasion they did the same thing for a Cabernet Sauvignon.
The store is always neat and tidy, service is friendly and abundant.

Lots of beverage goodies and better prices compared to BevMo. They have practically any sort of beverage:
— wines (red, white, dessert, whatever!)
— harder stuff like vodka, bourbon, tequila
— tasty sweet stuff like adult milk, hard ciders, hard lemonade
— beers, ales, and seasonal beverages
And vessels to hold your drinks.
I’m not a beer drinker but love checking out their selections that you can mix and match.
Stephen enjoys picking up new dessert wines, bourbons and limited edition beers. In this visit he picked up a bourbon, a limited edition, seasonal beer, and a pear cider for me.
Overall a great store to get drinks for personal use, for parties, or celebrations, or for gifts.
BYO bag or pay 10c for one. If you buy a large amount, they will box your purchase like Costco.
