Karl is knowledgeable and carries many unique small wineries, from Europe and around the world. He excels in Spanish (not well known in the US), Portuguese, and Italian Wines. Buy local from a person who understands wine, not mass market stores.

We are new to the area but ever since we found his store, we keep coming back for his charm and the quality of wines. The owner, Karl is amazing! His depth of knowledge from past experiences in the industry is amazing. Moreover, he brings love and care for what he offers and his customers. His focus is unpretentious, daily consumable wines, beers, and sprits. Libertyville is a pretty, posh area but at his store, you won't break your bank even if vising here weekly. He has a monthly wine tasting event where you find interesting mix of wines. We got to taste all six he had and bought several! Also, he offers private (8-12 people) paring event by appointment that we want to try with friends.

Extremely knowledgeable and friendly owner, Karl, who’s ready to answer questions, make recommendations, and to talk wine! A lovely and quite atmospheric store, too! A new favorite of mine, including 3 of the recommendations he made that are now in my top 5!

Karl has a very well curated selection of mostly European wines, but he also carries domestic wine, fine imported beers, spirits, and some special foods do accompany the wine. He can find something to suit your tastes at many price points. Great business.

What a wonderful addition to Libertyville! Beautiful and cozy space, and a wide range of unique selections to choose from. Karl is great and introduced us to some delicious new finds. I can’t wait for the tastings to start!

The best example of what a neighborhood wine shop should be. You will be met immediately by the gracious owners as they guide you in finding the perfect wine. They have everything from an affordable table wine for a casual evening to something for a special night. My favorite part is the AMAZING Italian wine selection only found at restaurants but you can actually afford.

Great shop with plenty of global varieties at affordable prices that you won't find at most retailers near by. Karl is incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. Cannot wait for wine tasting to be live post covid!

Lovely new wine shop in downtown Libertyville. Owner was so helpful when I asked for his opinion. Said he was happy to order wines I'd like to buy if he didn't carry them already. Looking forward to wine tastings he said they'd be having down the road. Great new addition to downtown Libertyville. Highly recommended.
