Moore Brothers Wine Company

Good — The staff has a good to great knowledge of the wines in the store, all of which are usually solid values at their respective price points. A great source for some harder to find wines, such as Keller Rieslings.
Okay — The wine selection can be spotty in certain areas, as the shop works with a single importer. The selections in Germany, Champagne, and Italy are great, but the selections in other areas, such as the Northern Rhone are sparse and have always been so.
Bad — The staff, while being very knowledgeable about the wines in their store, typically have not had a particularly deep knowledge of wines outside of the distributor they work with. It can be a bit frustrating when trying to ascertain the style of wine from a particular producer in their store, as they cannot really give contextual information about the wines and where they fit in the greater wine world.

I have always liked wine but this takes it to a whole other level. I can see why people view it as an art. The staff is full of knowledge and interesting.

I recently stopped in and was initially nervous as I am new to wine and as a 23 year old sometimes not given much attention in a specialty store but was pleasantly surprised as the staff was extremely friendly, and helpful. They asked what my experience was with wine and what my price range was and from there was able to help me pick out a bottle. I also purchased a cider which I loved. I will definitely be coming back.
As a side note, wear a sweater or jacket as they keep it nice and chilly inside.

Initially, I was a little intimidated waking in the store for the first time. Maybe I thought it would be some overpriced establishment that catered to only wealthy elites. Boy was I wrong! The staff is friendly and very welcoming. They recommended a wine that was tailored to my tastes and it was just as they described. I highly recommend this place.

For several years, Moore Brothers had been our favorite place for special occasion wines. With the staff members’ initimate knowledge of the vineyards and their ability to store customers’ purchase history, recommendations have been great. However, we’ve recently learned that our go-​to staff member, Alex, is no longer with the company. Alex knew us well, remembered our tastes, and always welcomed us. I’m afraid that without Alex, we won’t be back.

While this place has a plethora of wine at various price points — that can be said about many other stores in the area as well. This place, however, does manage to have the most condescending, arrogant staff around.
Their inability to work within a budget is utterly ridiculous. I asked for a $ 15 – 20 wine and the employee offered me 3 separate $ 25 – 30 wines before finally finding me a single $ 20 wine that he proclaimed «okay». I’m 25, on a budget, and if a wine is $ 20, it’s going to have to be better than «okay». I’ve had excellent wines for sub-​$ 10 at stores not far from here, and enjoyed the experience of buying them on top of it!
As for tastings at this store, prepare to be in a mob. It’s absolutely overcrowded, and it’s as if they actively try to pour as slowly as possible — not that there’s even ever enough to go around. I’ve gone to two separate tastings and walked away without ever being acknowledged aside from the person pouring the wine asking me if I was ready for the next (I had been for more than 10 minutes). At both wine tastings, they’ve «run out» of wine. Please enlighten me as to how this happens in a WINE STORE — because I don’t get it.
Needless to say, I’ve since stopped shopping here. They only get 2 stars because they do have a large amount of wine in stock (except for those they’re tasting, apparently) and a good location.

These guys know their stuff! The staff is friendly and non-​intimidating (always helpful in a wine store) and they will give recommendations of what goes with that goes with dinner tonight. Even if you don’t know a Pinot from a from a Merlot, they will be happy to walk you through it– they take wine seriously. If you are looking to spend $ 12 or $ 112 they will not steer you wrong. John, the manager is especially helpful as well as Eric. I would give these guys more stars if i could!

Used to go here when I lived a little closer.
The staff is very knowledgeable, collection of wine is from small boutique producers who in many cases has met the staff personally. Many good selection in the low to mid price range (less than $ 50).
One of the few stores that carried a Monbazillac. The ability to upload the wine you purchased along with tasting notes to your private area on their website is a plus in case you ever wanted to refer to it or make a repeat purchase.
I would give them 4.5÷5 stars. Only reason I hold back on the 0.5 star is the narrow selection range.
