California Wine Shops, Cellars, and Stores

The rise in the popularity and interest in wine has resulted in the increase of California wine shops. These wine stores are more than the usual liquor store. In cities like Napa, Redding, Los Angeles and Long Beach there are wine cellars that specialize in fine CA wines as well as national and international wines. Some also sell beer and liquor, but more and more are specialized just for wine. They usually have an extensive selection of wines and a friendly and knowledgeable staff that can help you to select the perfect wine for every occasion. The sommelier or wine steward on staff is an excellent resource for any questions you have about wine.

Wine shops in Truckee, Bishop, Anaheim or Santa Monica may also offer wine tasting events too. That's right! Many CA wine cellars will host wine tasting events where customers can sample new wines and get more detailed information about the wine regions they come from. Every California wine shop is different. They each offer unique wines and may specialize in specific wines from specific CA wineries.
