My Visit to Total Wine & More, and it’s the MORE Part That You’ll LOVE! [photo gallery]
First off, I’m ALL about saving $$$. Second, this place blew my mind. In addition to the largest wine selection (8,000 + and deep in NW offerings), you’ll find 3,000spirits and 2,500 beers. EVERYTHING you need is there. Friendly, expert staff, interesting features and lots of local flavors. Total Wine & More, is just something you need to experience. If it’s a wine for yourself, a party or date night they are HAPPY to work with you, within’ budget and pairing. I promise you will not be intimidated as they are so eager to help. (and btw, my favorite wine was $5 cheaper than my local grocery store…boom!). Also, Weddings, Receptions, Anniversary, Retirement, or party for fun…this is your one stop shop and you will save $$$. I’m really glad I discovered Total Wine, and wanted to share my experience with you. Find a Total Wine store (HERE).
Beverages-Gifts-Glasswear-Cigars-Mixers-Snacks they really do have it all, & MORE!
I visted the Southcenter Store…
It’s hard to capture in a photo, just how giant this place is. Kinda like when you visit the Grand Canyon for the first time, something you just have to experience yourself:)
8.000 wines to choose from.
3.000 spirits. (and ALL the mixers you can imagine)
And 2,500 beers. Oh, and this is Don Bergenty. He’s the District Manager, he’s AWESOME! (as are ALL the Total Wine staff. Super friendly, knowledgeable.
And Total Wine offers tasting classes.
And they know everything about, well…everything. As they should, because the friendly staff at Total Wine have 120 hours of product training. I know right?!?!?
I love how the help you ‘shop’ for what you need or looking for vs. upselling you on things you don’t need or will pay too much for. Whatever the budget, they got you.
They helped me find the perfect wine for the dinner party I was invited to.
The staff even share thier personal favs.
Yup. That pretty much sums it up.
In addition to beverages, there’s the ‘more’ part that’s fun to shop.
A glass for every occasion or even a gift. (these here are made from recycled wine bottles. Cool!)
Whatever it is you need, Total Wine has it.
And bring your growler, fill up with your favorite craft beer. (check out what’s on tap at Totalwine.com)
Again, whatever it is you need. Total Wine & More has it.
