Every interaction I've had with Second Bottle has been so lovely. Recently, I was wanting to pick up a set of their tinned fish and some wine and dessert to go along with it for a Christmas gift. I got sick and wasn't able to shop in store, their team responded to my Instagram DM immediately, picked out items for me and even delivered them to me in time for Christmas. The selection is amazing and their customer service is exceptional!

A fantastic wine store for a variety of reasons. Quality wines with plenty of organic options. As my partner has many allergies, this is helpful. The wines are interesting, not the same stuff available everywhere. The price range is very reasonable. I’ve gotten great wines there for $17 up to $27. You can go higher if you like. Finally the folks running it are friendly, knowledgeable & put out great energy. Couldn’t recommend more highly.

If I owned my own wineshop, it wouldn't be too much different from Second Bottle. They have a very carefully chosen selection of fine wine for that special occasion and of more affordable options too. I love that you can easily find a Cabernet Sauvignon, but you can also find more esoteric items - look at their Italian whites <3For me, one of the most exciting finds is the shelf of conservas. I simply love tinned seafood and their selection is bar none. Sorry Whole Foods.

Second Bottle is the best!! Erin and Garrett are so helpful and the selection of wines, cheeses, and conserves is top notch!Erin will work with you to provide wines and cheeses for any event, and even attend the event to pour the wine and tell your guests about it! I organized a wine and cheese tasting for my wife’s birthday and Erin was just fantastic, as were the wines and cheeses that she picked out for us.Church Hill and Richmond are so lucky to have this shop!

Cool little neighborhood wine shop. I LOVE the handwritten tags descriptions on the bottles that describe more info about the taste profile of the wine and what it pairs with. I also appreciate how the bottles are arranged by country and not just by varietal.

A beautiful and wonderful shop. So many good and interesting bottles at excellent prices. Something for everyone but they seem to have a focus on smaller producers, both traditional and natural. Ask the proprietor, she knows each bottle and has excellent recommendations.

Best neighborhood wine shop. We used to live in Church Hill and were so excited to see a wine shop going into this location. Erin and Garrett are awesome and always have a good recommendation for us. They are our go to wine shop in Richmond. Erin can also do private tastings which are super fun! Thursday wine tastings are a great way to kick off the weekend too.

Stopped at Second Bottle for a Christmas gift today. Great selection of wines in a unique corner shop in Richmond. Quality wine and not pricey. We got great advice from the staff, too. Check it out! Support small businesses!

Y'all. Let me tell you about this little shop. Ok, first of all, we LOVE it. Erin and Garrett are so very kind, they love (and are so knowledgeable about their wine, and they can make great recommendations. Cooper (Erin's dog) will also sometimes greet you if he's around. He's even featured on their new 4-bottle carrying totes (which have nice, sturdy handles that won't break). Almost (if not) every Thursday, they have a free wine tasting, starting at 5pm. So, you can sip your way around the world and try wines from new places. You might even find your new favorite thing!

I’ve only purchased delicious wines here. The selection is highly curated and the owner has carefully made tasting notes for each bottle so that you can shop independently, or with assistance. Great diversity of price points and styles.
