Editorial Review for The Grape Choice – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
When you visit this popular wine shop, you'll get both an education and a taste or two from folks who understand the art of wine. The owners--Kirkland Mayor Larry Springer and his wife Peggy Sweet--have been in the wine business for 15 years and know their grapes. Simply mention what's on the menu for your special occasion and they'll point you to the perfect bottle of vino, then pop the cork for a sample.

When to Go

User Reviews for The Grape Choice

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

GREAT little store! Larry and crew are wine-smart without being overbearing, understand and respect the value of carrying a GOOD variety of low-priced wines, carry the cream of the current vintage's selections, and keep prices reasonable. The wine bar is wonderful, comfortable, and companionable and the crowd is amiable and laid-back. Bravo! I hang at GC often and always have great times and wonderful wines.

Pros: atmosphere, selection, reasonable prices

Cons: a tad messy

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

A great store, with a special ambience. They are very knowledgeable and always go the extra mile to provide personal service to their customers, both new and established.
