Wine 101

Love this place. A fantastic selection, helpful owners, and very reasonable prices. A must try.

I came to the NYE Bubbles tasting for my birthday and had a great time! Wine 101 is so welcoming and friendly. This is a place for everyone who just enjoys wine. Chris did a great job leading the class and is very down to earth. Wine 101 is the farthest from snobby and pretentious as it can get. Loved the atmosphere, the people, the BUBBLES and the cheese selection. Plus for the $25 class fee we tried 6 different bubbles, and I got a free bottle to take home. So there’s a Big Bang for your buck! Can’t eat to go back!

This place is everything you want in a fancy wine shop without having to spend a ridiculous amount for great wine. It's literally perfect. Carol and Chris are absolutely amazing! You can tell that they've put poured their love of wine into this place. It's beautiful, they remember their customers, and provide bountiful knowledge. Definitely take one of their classes and try their monthly wine packs!

The best friendly neighborhood wine store! So helpful in choosing wines ! Chris is extremely knowledgeable with wines and cheese too!
They even offer a delivery service !
Carol greets everyone with a genuine smile!
Such a pleasure to go there!🍷

We love Wine 101, it is one of our favorite wine shops. The shelves are stocked with wines that demonstrate quality at affordable prices, each selection carefully picked by the owners Carol and Chris. Helpful in suggesting wines that match our tastes, they feel like good friends. We enjoy the wine classes too. Our knowledge and our love of wine has grown greatly through Chris and his guest wine makers, importers and distributers. The store also has a nice selection of craft beer and cheese. Well worth our trip from Milford.

I love this little shop. Such a great selection at affordable prices. Carol and Chris are knowledgeable, friendly and low key. The store is also attractive with a modern yet “folksy” vibe. Went to a wine and cheese tasting that was informative and fun!

Very lovely local shop with great selection of wines. The owners are always working so you can tell that they love what they do. They're very nice and helpful. They do have a smaller selection of cheeses, craft beers and liquor if you also need to pick some up there.

Had a great time with friends tonight at the Summer Bubbly wine tasting event! Loved the atmosphere and wines - and for only $10 it's so worth it! I also loved the cheese these guys provided so much that I had to buy some for myself! Great selection of beers, wine, cheese, and more... Definitely will follow them on Facebook since I wish I knew about the gin cocktail event tomorrow night!

I'm really surprised it took me this long to visit Wine101. Not only do they have a wonderful selection of wines from around the world, they also have a nice selection of craft beers with some local harder to find varieties. I had the opportunity to attend the Old World/New World class. The owners are very knowledgeable and really made the class a great learning experience. It was also a fun environment to learn something new about wines you are drinking.

They are very helpful in helping pick out a new wine or beer. There is a small selection but a good variety. Lots of local brews here and they come individual so you can try one at a time. Not your typical liquor store but a nice neighborhood place

Our local wine, beer and cheese store. Carol and Chris give great recommendations based on your taste. Lots of affordable varieties of wine, beer, and cheese.

Just had a delivery at home. What great service and nice to deal with. I have called them with some odd requests for something I have seen at a bar or restaurant and they alway go the extra mile. You won’t get this kind of service from most stores. They even have an app!!

This place is absolutely amazing !!! I just received delivery for the first time and it was the best experience !they have the kindest staff and they are extremely helpful and compassionate during this time 10/10 recommended I will absolutely be ordering again !!

Great selection, super friendly staff. Also has a good selection of local CT beer and liquor!

Great experience and good selections! I’m from out of town and they made me feel right at home! Very friendly ppl!

Had a great wine class. Was very informative and they have a ton of great wine to choose from.

Chris was kind of busy but took the time to help me navigate the store as it was my first time in Wine 101 and it won't be my last.

Great place and great people. Nice selection of wine and craft brews.

Excellent variety and pricing.
Friendly knowledgeable staff who are happy to help, or to engage in conversation and share knowledge.

Excellent events with a focus on wine education. Best wine shop in Hamden.
