Let me start with saying that I dont know anything about wine. I hail from Ohio, land of cheap beer and moonshine. Anyway, I went into total Wine and More hoping to get a wine to try. I had tried some in the past and they all tasted like dirty feet to me. But I wanted to try again. I went in and started confusedly perusing their wine selection, which is huge. An employee noticed me looking at wines with (Im guessing) a confused and frustrated look on my face. His name was Jerry. And he was a godsend. If you ever go to Total Wine and More, find Jerry. He is super knowledgeable, incredibly nice, and above all else, he is passionate about wine! he seemed genuinely excited to help me find the perfect wine for me. And he did. oh boy, did he. I told him I like bubbly wine and that I like fruity sweeter flavors, and he set me up with a bruschetta sparkling wine that I love (and doesnt taste like dirty feet!). Seriously, as soon as you enter the store, find Jerry. He rocks.

Chain store offering a wide variety of wines, beers, and liquors. They offer wine and beer tastings on what appears to be a daily basis, but I know for certain on Fridays and the weekends. If they dont have your favorite, ask and they might be able to get it. That said, heres a dirty little secret regarding beer distribution. Its all controlled by a select few distributors and they very specifically control what beer goes where. Your favorite brand might be available, but Total Wine (or any store for that matter) can only request additional selections based on what the distributor have determined should be available to that region. Its all about controlling selection and forcing sales of big name beers (Bush, Coors, etc) by limiting options. Thats not Total Wines fault, but still frustrating because of how very anti consumer it is. In any case, great selection, great service (for the most part). Check it out.

This place is ah-maze-zing! Fair prices on a crazy selection of booze, beer, and cider. Youll find it all, from Budweiser to tiny breweries in other states; their selection in liquor, wine, and beer cannot be beat. I know some great bartenders with amazing distributor connections who still find things here they cant beat through their sources... Was shocked to learn that. (Though it is the exception rather than the rule... A well connected bartender is always going to get better stuff at better prices than us regular Joes.) The only problem with this place is my inability to go buy just one thing.

Really love the organization of this place... the wines, champagnes, spirits, beers, etc Its nice they have sommeliers and their own experts to speak with regarding their merchandise. Theyve come in handy for making great choices for gifts. For Christmas one of the greatest and easiest gifts to give is a dozen various beers from around the world... Total wine makes it so easy... The beers are categorized and organized by types and what countries they are from... Ive had huge smiles and success doing this each year. Kudos to total wine!

This is a great store for anybody who is 21 and over and loves variety in beverages. If you are 21 I am sure you can get service no matter if you are Asian or Caucasian. Just remember to bring ID to prove your age, especially if you are Asian. I can vouch for the fact that it is difficult many times to judge ages of Asian peoples. It has nothing to do with racism, just simple unfamiliarity So come on down if you want the best selection and prices in town. And if you look young be ready to show your ID

I came to Total Wine to work on my Christmas list of specific requested alcohol items.I didnt find a single one of these items three of them were wines .I ended up finding everything in Fred Meyer with their alcohol this election was very good and the prices were Fair. one of the ones I specifically asked about the staff told me I could only get from the winery but I found it at Fred Meyer so overall review not a good selection and wrong information.

Nice discount liquor warehouse that looks like, well, a warehouse. Wine tasting on weekends. My wife and I love it that theyve introduced a "butter bar" rating scale for the butteriness of Chardonnay wines. And weve started paying closer attention to the staff recommendations posted on the shelves. One of our new habits is to shop once or twice each month and get enough wines of our favorite labels to get the six-bottle discount.

Excellent selection of wine, beer, and liquor. Youd be surprised at the things you can find here. They have the craft beer organized by type, and even have a section for seasonal / special releases. My one complaint is that they claim to always have Coors Light kegs in stock, however every time Ive been there they are out of 1/4 kegs. When you ask when they expect to get more in, they almost never know.

Honestly the best experience on a shopping trip Ive ever had. One of the employees, I think his name was Bobbie, came over to me immediately and would check back in with me every few minutes as I moved around the store. He listened to my vague descriptions of what I was looking for and was able to find me something for each of my interests, from Cava to Pinot Noir. Thank you!

Love this store! The staff is always helpful, though I dont always agree with their suggestions. And the layout is a little odd, its difficult to find what you want because *this* half of the store is in order by varietal, and *that* half of the store is sorted by location.... one or the other please!

As far as big box liquor stores go, this might be the creme de la creme. The selection is so large, its overwhelming. I hope you can find what you came here to look for. Really neat spot to shop for some PacNW local wines for your loved one. You may come across 50+ in the selection.

Great selection and good prices. Hate the taxes here in WA but the low prices here help. They also list the price with tax on all items. Incredible single malt (scotch) selection. Any wine you can think of. Mead. Gluten free Maui onion chips! Very helpful staff who know their stuff.

They have everything I ever needed when it comes to liquor. Also, I love how they list the price after tax. Staff is also always helpful. They help me find new things to try with no bullshit about promoting certain brands and help me pick the right liquors for the mixes I want.

So much booze... lol I went in for one bottle and ended up buying a bunch of drink tools, a book of drink recipes, and a ton of samplers. Staff seems very knowledgeable, if scarce (had to look for someone to help, but Ill cut em slack since they were closing up).

I have never seen such a selection before! We even had one of the managers come by and help us out with Mezcal. Very knowledgeable and helpful. The store is impeccably clean and organized. Cant wait to go back to see what else I discover.
