We came in after work one day and wanted to pick up a nice bottle of wine for our homemade pasta and pesto night! The gentleman gave us a great suggestion! He suggested carmenere- the zombie grape wine! Told us about it and explained in detail the organization of the store and about some of his favorite wines. It was a great experience! We can't wait to go back and try more of their hand picked selection. The selection is unique and well priced. It was fun to learn a little about the wines and where they came from. He was easy, helpful, and very nice to talk to! I even got to give Pisco a sunflower seed- the shop bird!

Thank you, Martin, for taking the time to share your wine knowledge and enthusiasm with us! Our visit was not only informative, and blessed with great wine, but also fun, meeting your beautiful, upside down bird, and hearing a Mother Goose rhyme with a wine theme, by the author himself?. Please let us know the name of your book, Martin, so we can try to find a copy. That would be the ultimate memento from our time in Helena! When we return to Helena, you can be certain we will come to visit you again and buy great wines, and have you sign your book! Joyce and Pat Kelly from Sedona, AZ

This was the most wonderful encounter thus far in our otherwise rainy Montana escape. We were staying at a nearby hotel and stumbled into the shop and upon its lovely owner and pet bird, Pisco. Not only do they have an incredible variety of wonderful and exotic wines that come from far and wide, the service was top-notch. We purchased a few bottles, and the wines were absolutely incredible. We can't wait to go back! The prices were also phenomenally on point. If you're in the area, you MUST check it out!

Stayed in Helena for two weeks in April and quickly found Martin's Wines, visited the store 5 times and bought about 20 different bottles of red wine. Martin knows every wine in the store (it's a good if not huge selection) and can recommend bottles to correspond to your preferences, the wines are all reasonably priced (most around $20), and Martin (and his pet parrot) are amusing.

If you like wine, you have to love this place. Got $20? Martin will find you a great bottle of white, red, rosé - whatever you desire.Like understanding wine? He knows the whole selection deeply and personally, and can explain why each one is different or might be worth trying.Don't know Jack about wine? Martin will explain them to you, take your suggestions, and give you something fantastic. Turns out my wife DOES like red wine, if I can ask Martin for help in finding the right one.Do you like clubs and feeling exclusive? Great! There's a wine club to get discounts, and it gives you a reason to stop by every month!Seriously, you have to love that there's a place in Helena where a gentleman as passionate about wine as Martin will walk you through an interesting and deeply curated selection. Wines from rare grape cultivars, wines from weird regions, wines from Montana, wines with a totally different flavor profile than you'd expect - he's got it all.If you like wine, you owe yourself the trip to Martin's Wines. You'll find something interesting, new, and truly special, every time.

I don't know much about wine, so Martin has been very helpful with selecting a great wine for the occasion.

While the selection is limited due to the store size. There is something for everyone's taste here that enjoys wine.

Absolutely love this wine shop! Martin is so friendly and knowledgeable. Found a wine that I haven't been able to find in a long time! Such a unique selection and amazing prices as well! Cannot be beat!

The owner is very rude. He has bullied children on multiple occasions. While he may be friendly to the adults that come in his store, I have heard and seen firsthand him being mean to children, some as small as 5. I don’t think that is proper for a storeowner to behave like that.

I'm not much of a wine drinker, but I went here to purchase a gift for someone else. The owner was very informative without being condescending. Honestly the whole experience couldn't have been any easier and I'll be back again if the need for a wine purchase comes about again.

Ok, the owner knows his wines! He talks fast so listen closely. He has a fair selection of wines in there but not huge. Nice little local shop. Love the chessboard, knight and "this day in history" at his shop! Will shop here again.

Martin is an exceptionally knowledgeable, classy, and friendly gentleman with some exceptional wines in his store. Some very rare wines that are incredibly delicious are available in his small well kept store. Totally worth stopping by and checking it out!

Store is small and cute, the gentleman that is there is so kind and shares so many facts and information about the wines. A definite mist stop! Wine is great as well!
