Grande Krewe Fine Wine & Spirits offers a large selection of small production wines and spirits at all price levels, with a decent variety of price points. It is known as the best selection of wines from small wineries to be found in New Orleans. The shop is incredibly spacious, welcoming, and very well categorized. While it may feel a bit pretentious at first glance, the staff are willing and ready to help choose a bottle based on requirements and budget. Employees are super friendly and knowledgeable. The unique Krewe experience includes meeting the two adorable shop pugs, who are the official greeters. The business is dog-friendly and even has treats for visiting dogs. Grande Krewe hosts excellent weekly wine tastings, along with other informative events like mezcal tastings featuring a good selection of brands. These tastings are held every Thursday, and the business also offers space for private events. Located in a quiet part of town, it is a unique place to discover something new with a great story behind it.

Every single thing that I've tried from Grand Krewe's selection has been incredible. They do a great job curating. I've tried Amaro and many wines, all have been fantastic. Highly recommend this wine shop. Staff is also friendly and helpful.
