Viniferous

Ok people — the real Truth: I stopped shopping here about a year ago, because I was continuously offended by your objectifying advertisements. And then I stopped caring what crap you chose to put in your window. Until I walked by this evening and saw this.
You should be ashamed of yourselves. Advertisements that glorify the sexualization of childhood are inappropriate. Advertisements that celebrate child sexual abuse should be criminal. You have managed to achieve both. I will be sharing this on my own page and encouraging my friends in the Frederick community to avoid patronizing your establishment.

Viniferous is a great wine shop with the best customer service. Just ask the father son duo Bob & Luke to help you with a selection and the never seem to miss. They may ask what you are pairing the wine with or what the occasion is. They are even mindful of keeping you within your budget. Can’t beat that! The shop is set up beautifully with ever changing amusing artwork by a local artist. Oh and if wine isn’t your thing their is a great selection of craft beers in the back room. They also offer tastings just about once a week. This is an awesome shop with people that care about having you as a customer. These type of shops are the heart of Downtown Frederick.

The owner/​manager/​worker that I encountered was super friendly. He was helping other customers, but took a second to say hi to me when I came in.
He then came over once he was done helping the other customer and told me about their 2 bottles for 20 dollars special.
There is a good deal of wines in crates that are standing high and backlit. They all looked super expensive, and I couldn’t see the prices visible…
It’s like going into one of those boutique stores and seeing like a couple of shelves with one item each, and being like, oh. this is gonna be expensive as shiz.
But amazingly, it wasn’t! They definitely have some affordable bottles!
#YelpTip: The prices are on the back of most of the bottles.
I asked him for a recommendation for a cabernet and he was super generous with information. Customer service was a 5 out of 5! Great little wine shop! I’ll definitely be back!

If you are looking for knowledgeable advice on the wine selection, this is the place to be. The owners travel the wine countries they sell and sell their favorites. There are special tasting/​pairing events for both beer and wine that sell out very quickly. So, you need to be on the mailing list (best) or like them on Facebook. If you are a zinfandel or petite syrah fan like me this should be your wine shop.

Excellent selection of wine and knowlegeable staff. We always find something we like.

Stopped by because the sign outside said craft beer and I was very impressed. They had a small but impressive selection. The prices were very reasonable as well. I fully plan on going back when I have more time and letting the mgr sell me on some wine as well.

There are few times when five stars are actually warranted, this is one of them! We had a private wine tasting with Luke for a fortieth birthday. We could not have had a better time! Luke perfectly picked wines for us to taste and gave us a little lesson on each. Don’t bother going anywhere else in Frederick if you want excellent, knowledgeable, personable service and fantastic wine!

I was looking for a bottle of wine to give as a gift. I walked in, said what I was basically looking for, what my budget was, and in less than five minutes I was out of the store with a nice bottle of wine. The man working there was polite and helpful and I appreciated the concise advice from someone who seemed to know exactly what they were doing.

Downtown Frederick offers any number of places to buy fine wines and beers, but Viniferous stands out for its handpicked selection and attentive service from the father and son team that run the shop.
It’s best to shop here when you have some time to browse and let the owners help you make your selection. On weekends, they usually have something open for you to taste.
They recently added a humidor and I stopped by to check it out before a meeting with some old friends. In typical Vinferous fashion, they only carry one brand, which I have never seen anywhere else. The owner told me the story of the cigars and I took a chance. Also in typical Viniferous fashion, the cigars were excellent and in perfect condition.

Fantastic owners. Wine selection is very good and the owners listen to what you like (and your price range) then give outstanding recommendations. I’ve yet to have a bottle that I wasn’t extremely satisfied with. I will not waste my time anywhere else.

An excellent boutique wine shop. They really have a good range of wines, from good value stuff to expensive French and cult wines. Bob is very helpful as well. Highly recommended if you live in Frederick or just visiting and need some good vino.

When looking for fine wines from a well researched source, not just following trends, this is the place! The owner is well traveled, finding fantastic wines from all over the world, bringing a selection of wines that seems to set the standards for other places downtown. (Seriously, after a bottle is here, other stores carry it in weeks or months to come.) The owner is very approachable, he has an interesting background in the niche. This place is a fantastic place to bring 10 – 16 friends (5 – 6 couples) for a wine tasting party to learn about wines, regions, and the real bounty of wines. Which means a lot more than simply repeating some trendy article or hearsay. To really appreciate life in the art of the grapes. Can’t wait to go back. I admit I began thinking I’d pay less but when I discovered the difference between the wines, it really made me appreciate why.

Viniferous is a great place to get wine or beer in Frederick. The owner is an extremely nice guy who will tell you everything you ever wanted to know about whatever you’re interested in (plus a little more usually, but in a good way). Not knowing much about wine myself, I always ask him for suggestions for a casual wine drinker and he never disappoints. He always picks out wines that suit my taste and are not too expensive.
There is also a small, but excellent, beer selection. You will find quite a few beers in there that I guarantee you won’t find any other place in Frederick and perhaps not even in the DC area.
The interior is well designed to show off the wine and you can tell that it has some personal touches to it. Plus I think they offer wine tasting classes and specials on certain days. All-​in-​all it’s a great store.

Stopped here to see what offerings off the vine were to be had here.
The owner is an amiable guy who’s traveled a bit and can offer advice about finding wines from the well-​known wine regions in Europe and the places nearby, but less famous.
This is a good place to adventure a bit and explore your knowledge of different wine regions with the assistance of a helpful guide.

Knowledgeable owner, good selection of wines.
