Fine Wine Service I didn’t think an online store could match the personal service I enjoy at my local, independent wine shops. However, Jim at Fine Wine Collector proved me wrong. In summary, Jim takes a genuine interest in his customers and does everything he can to provide them an exceptional experience. He called me promptly on the morning after I submitted my online order. He wanted to make sure that the “nice bottle of wine” I purchased would be received safely. Additionally, he took the time to learn about my wine preferences. During our conversation he offered to forward a preview list of a collection he had just acquired. It was right up my alley and it took all the will power I had not to empty my wallet. Overall, one of the best experiences I had buying a special bottle of vino. I will work with them again. I

I was looking for a specific vintage… I was looking for a specific vintage and was arriving to San Diego that same morning. I was able to order online and pick up seamlessly the same day from the warehouse and gift my friend for his 40th birthday! The gift that keeps on giving (or aging!) Thank you Fine Wine Collector for a great experience and tasty wine!

When they were located in San Jose When they were located in San Jose, Ca. I used to drop in to pick up few bottles and now that they are located in Southern California, I do not have luxury to do so. Would directly call Jim and ask for recommendation and does not disappoint. Prompt response and outstanding service beginning to the end. Highly recommend to others!

A great source of hard to fine wines at realistic prices backed by excellent advice. I look forward to Fine Wine Collector's weekly emails showing me what is new in their inventory and have used them to build out my collection from California and France. Fine Wine Collector has an ample array of hard to find wines that are in great condition and offered at fair prices. I have never had a bad bottle from them and Edward stands behind everything he sells. I would recommend Fine Wine Collector to anybody interested in the best wines from around the world.

The best. There's no more to say... I first 'met' Edward looking for the best price for my favorite wine (Merus - read: Mark Herold). To my surprise, I found not only a fount of wines, but also of knowledge about them. And 'a quite pleasant chap with whom to mull it over'. Over more than a decade (how time flies when you're having fun), we've become more than sales staff and customer. Often, we chat more than sell and buy wines. Edward knows my tastes (big Cabernets), and has several times given me the gift of suggesting wines about which I knew nothing, but absolutely knocked my socks off! I recommend his services and friendship without reservation. Call him. I'm certain that you'll find the same kind, gentle, and knowledgeable fellow wine lover that I did.
