I was visiting Ithaca and shopping on the commons - what a WONDERFUL little business. The clerk was knowledgeable and friendly and the whole experience made my night. I highly recommend

Very nice little wine store in Ithaca. Lots of interesting choices and maybe not as many as expected. Great place to pick up a bottle when eating at a place near the commons. Ask lots of questions.

Excellent, honest, would recommend to anyone. I had an issue with a case of wine (no fault of Cellar d'Or) and they remedied the problem very quickly. Very nice selection of great wines and employees are very helpful.

My wife and I needed something good to drink while roadtripping through Upstate NY (at the end of each day's drive, not during) and we stumbled upon The Cellar d'Or in Ithaca. We were helped by Antonio. Let me be clear: This guy wines. He was extraordinarily helpful in identifying wines we'd like, and you can tell he is passionate about what he does. His descriptions of each wine made us want to buy them all. We went in intending to buy one bottle and ended up buying six. We've been drinking the bottles he recommended, and each one has been fantastic. If you're in Ithaca, definitely give The Cellar d'Or a try. Thanks, Antonio!

I went here twice because of how convenient to my hotel it was. They have an interesting (though not necessarily great) wine selection. both times I went the SINGLE person working (two different people, but each time only one person working) was so over-involved in showing off their “knowledge” of wine to the customer ahead of myself and others just waiting to pay that it took a wildly long time to just pay and go. My suggestion would be to either have more than one employee on at a time or have that one employee cognizant that he is the only one working and behave accordingly.

Even if you don't know anything about wine, the helpful staff will provide you with a thorough guide to help you discover your preferences.

This is my go to wine shop. Its worth the drive to come here for the impressive selection of natural wines and helpful staff who know a lot about the products they sell and how they drink. After a few repeat trips with tasting notes we now can get a consistently awesome selection to bring home every visit. If you like natural wines this is the place to go.

Selection of wine is fine, they do have some more niche wines and a good selection of French/German wine and even some half bottles. However that's as much as I can recommend this place. My boyfriend and I had perused for a bit before he settled on a couple of half bottles to try. When we went to check out the cashier made some really condescending remarks. He just had such a pretentious attitude and mannerisms that it was off-putting. We were both very friendly and didn't say anything that might have prompted him to speak down to us-- but we felt so uncomfortable that neither of us would like to go back. It was my first time in the store so I was excited to see what they had but overall the experience was soured by his attitude.

Some cool bottles, but super standoffish service. I couldn't help but feel disrespected here, despite trying it out a few times. I'm not some noobie; I've been in the wine industry for years. Absolutely go to Red Feet or Northside instead.

Customer service could be definitely better. You should never tell the customers. That's what you get and not going to discuss it. Received half of my order. It's fine. Selection of a store is fine.
