My wife and I live in Austin and she'll come w/ me to Cary to visit my parents, sis, and her family once/year while I come out quarterly to help my family out. My wife's a Certified Somm. (CMS) and works for an importer/supplier now so I'm alwaus trying to scope out places to take we her to (or avoid) on my visits by myself. Great Grapes is a keeper. Very Knowledgeable help (a friend here lived in Italy and was very gracious with his time too) and I manages to strike gold on 2 finds that won't break the bank but are simply those lucky price point flavor profiles you can get for $18-$25/bottle...a real steal! The shop is clean, organized, and has a nice little tasting section--the 2 bottles I walked out with were both a result of the store opening a bottle of each for me to buy a glass, so that's an above and beyond effort--not to make the sale--but since I stated I was just in to try a glass or two, it was simply to see me walk away pleased with my sampling. 5 stars!!! I'll be back with my wife this summer.

Great first-time experience shopping here! I was looking for a bottle of champagne to give as a wedding gift and both Denise and the other sales associate were so extremely helpful. Denise even offered to gift-wrap the bottle and it was a beautiful presentation. 10/10 would recommend!!

I have been coming to the store for years. Even when I have not been to the store for a period of time, they make me feel welcome like a long lost friend. Helpful on questions and knowledgeable. Always good sales going on and special tasting events. Recommend to all levels of wine drinkers.

Good selection. Tried to order from Ukraine for my friend in US. Though I had some miscommunication. Hope it will be better next time.

Good local wine shop with a knowledgable and friendly staff. I like to try different lower to mid price wines beyond my current collection and Napa favorites..

Great Grapes is an excellent wine shop no matter your level of wine knowledge. If you are new to wine, knowledgeable staff can guide you to just the right choice in a variety of price points. If you are wine savvy, you'll be delighted.I particularly enjoy their backroom where they have deep discounts and odd lots. It's a great place to score a bargain.Whether you searching for an expensive Barlolo or a Thursday night supper, this is the place. You'll find quality international and domestic wines often at lower prices than the "beverage" wines sold in the grocery store. There are plenty of deals too.I always look forward to my visits to Great Grapes. I know you'll be pleased when you visit.

Great local bottle shop in Cary. I was in the area and wanted to get wines from some place local, and this was the closest spot. I was looking for some white wines that were not too much on the sweeter side and walked out a happy customer. One of the employees was extremely kind and helpful in suggesting some great budget wines. The wines are divided by their region, so it's easy to shop according to that. They have a large selection of both reds and whites and they also had some great discounts on a lot of wines. There's parking right outside the store, and also ample parking in the area where the store is located. I look forward to going back whenever I am in the area next.

I came here looking for a specific type of wine, but they didn’t carry it. The man helping me (not sure if he was the owner or regular employee) was quite rude, and he asked me if I was going to come back if he ordered a case for me. I assured him I would, gave him all of my information, but I was never contacted. I’m a very loyal customer whenever I feel a place appreciates my business, and unfortunately this place won’t ever get my business because of this.
