Post Wine & Spirits

I bought two bottles of wine from this place — I bought a bottle of wine — the Ruffino Chianti Classico that I have bought several times in that past — opened the bottle and it tasted like it had been watered down — completely no taste or body — so I opened the next bottle of Malbec and it to was disgusting — foul taste and was a see through red — which if you know Malbec are not !! There is something very off with this place do not buy your wine from here !!!

Whatever you do, do not order from their website.
I asked three people who I work with for their favorite alcohol so that I could buy them an end-​of-​project gift. I ordered on-​line with Post Wine and Spirits, almost two months before the event.
A month later I called to ask what had happened to my order, and was told that they didn’t actually have one of the bottles I had ordered, and had to get it elsewhere. They promised to get right on that and contact me as soon as they had.
Two full weeks later, having received no emails or voice messages, let along wine, I called again, and was told that they would have to call me back. Several hours later they called and told me that their supplier didn’t have it, either. They offered me an alternative bottle that would take another 10 days to reach them, plus whatever shipping it took to reach me. That would be well beyond the point I had said goodbye to some of the people the bottles were intended for. They offered no discount or expedited shipping. When I cancelled my order, after having made me wait for a month and a half, they simply said that they were sorry that they couldn’t help me.
Obviously, it was partially my fault for having waited so long to hound them. But in this day and age, I have gotten used to internet merchants acting like professionals, not like hobbyists who think that they are doing you a favor by shipping you the product you ordered when they happen to have it and when they happen to remember. If you don’t have the bandwidth to run an online storefront, don’t open one.

Came here with a group of hikers, wine tasting after 3 hours of hiking can be refreshing.
I’ve been to tastings in the past but this one really blew my mind, glad i came here.
They had tables set up all thru out the store with different reps and probably 25 different wines, god knows I was buzzed, and they provided some crackers n cheese with it.
This small town has the best and friendliest liquor store their staff was very knowledgeable.
I walked out with a bottle and my friend bought 5 bottles yeah she definitely had a buz going:-)

I returned a bottle of wine today that was most likely corked. It absolutely turned and when I brought the bottle in the man who I assumed is the owner asked if I would like the same Barolo I said sure. After some searching they don’t have it and he tells me my bottle was $ 40.00 and I ask for a suggestion.
I follow him to the Italian red section and he suggests a wine priced at $ 44.99
He says here you go just pay the balance $ 5.00 at the counter. I did of course and as I left said to myself terrible way to handle a customer and I most likely won’t return. He had an opportunity to strengthen a relationship with a client and his pettiness most likely cost him in the long run.
Hope he reads this and learns from his mistake.

I have been patronizing Post W&S for many years.
I have ordered a few cases, of which they were spot on with delivery time and pricing to be fair.
The employees are VERY knowledgeable and have always greeted me when I enter the store, even if they had to say excuse me to the person that they were ringing up. I love being greeted right away upon entrance, makes you feel like the establishment CARES.
I don’t like to buy cheap wine and my normal wine purchase is from $ 40+ per bottle, that comes out to $ 10 per glass or more, which it is at most restaurants for their $ 5 per bottle house wine. I truly cannot drink cheap wine, though there are some bargains at $ 20 – 30 per wine, they are hard to find. Anyway… Without fail a nice employee (last time it was a tall gentleman) will come up and ask if they can be of assistance in choosing something. Of course, I don’t really need the help, but one day I might.
The most recent experience I had also included the counter person asking if I wanted them gift wrapped. A nice, attractive & personable shortish blond haired young woman. I told her I was going to go slam them down in my truck in the back parking lot and was treated with a laugh and a hearty «ENJOY!».
Definitely worth going out of your way to check this place out. Never a bad experience here in almost 15 years of visits.
If you are looking for a good selection of American Cabernets, Italian wines & french wines this is a great spot. I think they could DOUBLE their PINOT NOIR section, at least the AMERICAN pinot noir section, but that will come with time.

It looks like they recently expanded their inventory of Single Malt and Bourbon. Good selection it will take many months to try the more interesting ones. Good place for high end wine if I ever graduate from the $ 10 section. Helpful and knowledgeable staff.

Used mail order and this place is a joke. I am by no means a experienced wine drinker, however, I do know there are a few things to know and look for n a wine. Things like varietal, region, producer and of course vintage. So when I purchase a wine from a place I am supposed to believe is reputable, I expect a minimum level of knowledge from the proprietor. I spent $ 120, not much mind you, on the «last remaining bottles» of a 2010 vintage. I liked this wine so much I purchased what I could from any online vendor who showed they had stock. 1 vendor had what he showed and shipped it. Another didn’t and emailed me to see if they could substitute vintages, I declined. Post? Nope, Post wines just threw a 2011 in the box and called it a day. I guess I should have read the web page closer because this is NORMAL business for Post unless YOU tell them otherwise. The other part of this is that I tried to contact them 3 times before contacting my credit card company. I was willing to pay to return it as it was my fault for not reading their fine print. They NEVER tried to contact me back, but wasted no time in fighting my credit card dispute. So if you don’t care what you are drinking and like being treated like you don’t matter, then shop here. I will be taking my business to others that care about wine and customers.
As for you Post wines… nice job! You fooled me out of $ 120…and lost thousands on repeat business!

I will not be shopping here again as the employees I spoke with had no idea what they were talking about.
Yesterday I called Post Wine & Spirits to ask them if they sold a dry red Lambrusco and told them I will be using it to cook with. The employee told me that they had the wine and to come by the store.
I drove a half an hour out of the way farther east from where I live to pick it up, and when I arrived, the employee brought me to their «sweet sparkling» Lambrusco. I told him, as I did before on the phone, that I wanted the more popular dry red wine. He then told me they don’t sell that and tried to convince me I can cook risotto di Lambrusco with sparkling red. Ok, no. After I politely declined, he handed me a $ 9 Pinot Noir and told me this is just as good. Well, I could have bought a $ 9 Pinot Noir without driving a half an hour out of my way on a Friday night.

Very nice selection of wine & spirits, with some things that I haven’t been able to find in many spots in Manhattan (like Harvest Spirits Peach Jack). I would love this place if stuff were in stock … –many– shelf spots were empty of stock. Maybe there was a Labor Day run? The guys working here know their liquor, though … I will definitely return to give them another whirl.
(EDIT: With apologies to Franco C., Sherry-​Lehmann this place is not …)

When it comes to Liquor stores one is pretty much the same as the next.
But when it comes to wine stores they are not all created equal.
Post Wine has the best selection of wines i have ever seen.
If they don’t have it they can get it for you, But chances are they have it.
The store is huge, And the sales staff is amazing, extremely knowledgeable about the products they sell.
I have been in there many times asking for recommendations and they have never steered me wrong.
When it comes to win I highly recommend Post Wines. I give it 5 stars.

These guys are very good. They have really good selection of wines and spirits with reasonable prices. The one thing that took me by surprise was a small fridge of Asian drinks, something that is not usually present in most places I’ve gone to. I will be coming back as soon as I can spare some money.

This place is a nice place to find a good bottle of wine in for a nice occasion. The owner is knowledgable and once helped me track down a nondescript wine with a trade name carried by J Lohr. which I simply had to find and have again. It was a somewhat inexpensive red had on my birthday at a small Italian place on the upper west side of NYC.
He located the parent name and made it possible to find.
Funny thing. that year it was chosen just after my own quest. as the red for the academy award night (girlfriend attended) and it was listed in the paper. I knew I was onto a great production in a plain lable. It was the quintessential red wine… the best.
You can get a good champagne here too. Long Island selection is also not too skimpy which is appreciated!

We stopped by on the offchance of finding Long Island wine. The staff was very helpful and recommended some good choices. We are not able to see wineries in this trip but are grateful to have found this place for regional wine.

This is a wine merchant that all the others wish they were. Comparable to Sherry-​Lehman in Manhattan, these guys know their stuff.
Great sales staff, nicely laid out store and decent pricing — what could you ask for? Well they hold a lot of wine tastings and host wine dinners as well.
Can’t find what you want on the shelf? They’ll get it for you in a jiffy and call you when it is in.
