We were in the Meatpacking District and wanted to pick up a bottle of wine before dinner. I found Xavier Wine Co on Yelp and the great reviews were not wrong.
We only wanted a ~$20-$25 bottle of wine, although most of their selection is priced higher. We explained we wanted to try something new, and they found two bottles for us to choose from. The background knowledge the store possesses is what really sold the wine and they explained each vineyard's story to us. The personalized experience of buying wine with someone who knows about the vineyards they're selling is what will keep us going back. It made it worth buying wine that was a little more on the pricey side. We loved the bottle they picked and it fit the kind of flavor profile we asked for.
Additionally, they were having a FEW whiskey tasting that day. My boyfriend and I went to college in Evanston (which is where FEW's distillery is located) and it was great to see that Xavier reaches far past New York for its selection. My boyfriend sampled their rye and got a hefty two fingers. They made me a Manhattan as well, and it was actually one of the better Manhattans I've had.
Overall, loved the Xavier Wine Co experience! We'll definitely be returning.
