The Bottlenose Wine Co.

Cute little wine shop on 2^nd avenue. There’s definitely not a huge selection, and the vast majority of bottles are $ 13−15+, so keep this in mind in case you are looking for many options in the under $ 10 range.
There’s about 10 shelves for the different regions, plus some racks in the middle of the floor. For each region (Italy, Spain, South Africa, California, Washington, etc.) they carry anywhere from 5 – 10 different wines. That’s plenty of variety for me, but again, definitely one of the smaller wine shops you will come across. Regardless, Bottlenose meets my requirements just fine.

I love this place! They have a great selection with a knowledgeable staff and free local delivery! Once they were out of stock of my favorite Sancerre, but called me the very next day to let me know they got it in and were holding two bottles for me. I highly recommend Bottlenose. They even have a rewards card that gives you $ 10 off after every $ 300 spent.

Over priced. Move to the city first wine shop I came by. Then realized there was one down the street cheaper. There prices are inflated by a lot. 3 stars are do the staff. They are all very nice. One time I said I was paying with cash then I realized I was 88cents short and they said not to worry. I have them a toonie. Which in canada is a 2 $ coin

Really nice little wine shop around the corner from my girlfriends apartment we have been going to. As others have stated they keep a smaller selection of wine but of higher quality. They have a $ 21 chianti I have cone to adore and gave also recently joined their wine club where they track my purchases in case I forget ;) Knowledgable and very friendly staff, no snobbery at all. It is my new go-​to on 2^nd ave in the 30’s

The staff are always spot-​on with their recommendations and have introduced me to a nice variety of wines. They are always friendly and extremely helpful with helping me hone my wine palate. One time I told them I was going to be home, curled up with a book and asked them to recommend a wine… I got a shiraz. They are awesome.

$ 3-​$ 5 more per bottle than most places. Not a huge selection.

I had the pleasure of picking up a case of wine here for a recent event (I promise, I promise– it was for others to drink!) Despite my lack of wine-​cred, Chris helped me in packaging a tasty assortment of reds and whites. Prices are comparable to Sussex, but both shops have an equally impressive selection.

First time in and I like this wine shop a lot. Great selection and the guy I spoke with knew what he was talking about. I will come back when I have time to explore.

Awesome little wine shop that has chosen to keep a more modest inventory of only quality wines.
The décor is clean and trendy, as is the clientele.
I agree with the other reviewers about the awesome staff. The manager, Chris, is extremely knowledgeable but also chill and approachable and offers great suggestions, even if you aren’t sure what you want. Everything he had suggested for me has been delicious.
They also constantly switch out inventory, so there’s always something new.
There is a wide variety of prices, so it isn’t exclusively upscale.

Came here to get some wine for a party, the guy behind the counter was really eager to help and ended up helping us pick out a couple of bottles of wine.
The place seems a little pricey but I think that the selection of wines that they have in stock are phenomenal.
Also, they have hard alcohol behind the counter, from medium bottle sizes to very large ones. Definiely a smaller place than most other places that sell alcohol, but its worth stopping by. Especially if you are having a party.
They also have chilled wines incase you need it to be served quickly.

I stumbled upon Bottlenose a few weeks ago while on my way back to my office from an appointment. I’d been passively on the hunt for some gifts for clients and was so pleasantly surprised by their ecclectic selection that I decided to start my holiday shopping early. I picked up a few bottles for my clients and a few for an upcoming holiday party at my apartment. The guy who helped me out really knew his stuff and was quick with really good suggestions. Also– the layout of the space is really refreshing. I find most wine shops to be overflowing with so much merchandise that shopping can be both confusing and claustrophobic. Bottlenose has chosen their concise selection very wisely and makes excellent use of their small space. In addition to wine, they also carry a nice sampling of liquor behind the counter. Bottlenose is a very welcome addition to an otherwise generic and uninspired wine landscape.

I stopped into this new wine shop on second ave by chance to pick up a bottle of wine as a going away present for a friend, and I was just so impressed with this store, the staff and the selection. The store is very quaint, warm and welcoming. The manager was very helpful and friendly, and guided me to a great sounding Australian red that was right in my price range. I don’t know a lot about wine, so having him describe things in a way that was totally accessible went a long way. Boyfriend actually ended up purchasing three bottles of his own based on the manager’s well informed recommendations, and so far, they’ve all been spot on.
Great selection of affordable wines, plus pricier options for special occasions. Also, they have booze. Some college girls came in and bought like three handles of vodka while we were there. It was pretty funny. They seemed out of place in the fairly upscale establishment, but the staff remained utterly professional. Bottlenose is a class act.
