If you're anywhere near Somerville and not shopping at Liquor Saver, you're doing it wrong…read more This place hits that rare balance between serious selection and actually enjoyable shopping. You walk in and immediately feel like someone behind the scenes really cares about what's on the shelves. It's not just volume, it's curated. From everyday staples to high-end bottles you usually have to hunt for, they've got it dialed. Huge shoutout to Pearl and Dhyan. You can tell this isn't just a business to them, it's personal. Pearl has an incredible eye for what people actually want, not just what distributors are pushing. Dhyan made the new store perfect! Prices are competitive, but more importantly, the value is there. The way they organize sections makes it easy to discover something new without feeling overwhelmed. Their premium selection is especially impressive, you don't expect to find that level of depth in a neighborhood store. This is the kind of place you become a regular at without even realizing it. Thoughtful, well-run, and a clear step above the typical liquor store. Easily the best store in New Jersey!

I abstain from drinking these days, and even when I was drinking way back when, I was never a "wine…read moreconnoisseur" (although I enjoyed the wine "high," as well as the taste, the hangover was brutal), or any kind of "connoisseur." I wanted to ask my old friend from high school, who works as a psychiatric social worker and IS a wine connoisseur (I should mention that he loves the wine store in Princeton and always buys a few bottles when we periodically get together in that city), what he thinks of this particular store (if, indeed, he's ever patronized it), but I wasn't able to get him on the phone (he lives in Teaneck but his family is in Bernardsville) in time for this review. Oh well... It gets 5-stars from me because I do still buy wine as gifts for people I know. It's conveniently located near where I live, its prices don't seem prohibitively expensive to me (I like to buy whatever "good wine" is recommended to me, and I never have the expectation that it's going to be cheap), and the staff I've encountered here is friendly and helpful. When my father was alive, I'd buy him a bottle of Knob Hill Whiskey. No wine for Dad! He was always delighted. In January, it was my birth mother's birthday. She likes rose' wine. I asked the young man at the counter if he could recommend a good bottle of rose'; he did, and my birth mother later expressed satisfaction with it. A week ago, it was the birthday of an old friend. She's Jamaican, and back in the day, she would throw an enormous summer party in her backyard with every kind of Jamaican food you can imagine (it was at these parties that I acquired a taste for home-made Sorrel liquor). She's had some health issues in recent years, and has recovered heroically, but the enormous summer parties are a remnant of the past. This was to be a small birthday party with family and close friends, and I was honored to be invited. I'm not a wine connoisseur, as mentioned, but I wanted a high-quality wine to bring with me. The same young man at the counter, friendly and engaging, recommended several, and I ultimately bought the bottle that he said was a personal favorite, one that he buys for himself when he has wine. Other alcoholic drinks and beverages are available for purchase here, although wine is obviously the focus (after all, it's not called "Select Vintage Spirits and... oh yeah...wine too..."). If I were still drinking, and a regular patron, I suppose the prices might be more problematic for me. But, for my limited alcohol needs, Select Vintage rates 5 stars. (Funny story...well, to me anyway...about my friend's birthday party. I was the only non-Jamaican in attendance, and one of the few not drinking wine or other assorted alcoholic drinks. One of the guests, walking toward the kitchen, inquired, "Any more ice for the drinks?" One of my friend's family members raised his head, looked around rapidly as if panic-stricken, and said loudly, "ICE? Did I hear someone say ICE? Where? Where?!?" Well, it made me laugh. Maybe you had to be there...)

I noticed the gift selections they have and they offered me a tasting demonstration or organic liquors. Delicious! The selection of wine, beer, and spirits are thorough and some that you can't find in the average liquor store. Yes, they are a tad bit more expensive than other liquor stores but it's a small store. If you're looking for a great gift or unusual finds, this store is a great choice

It's well stocked and clean, with a good selection and a fairly large footprint. They also have adequate staff on hand, and someone is usually available to help with a selection if needed. There is plenty of parking though access to the parking lot is on the corner of two heavily traveled roads. If Total Wine & More sets the bar for a 5-star rating, Bottle Republic earns a solid 4 stars from me. Tip: When leaving the parking lot toward Easton Ave, many drivers attempt to turn left, crossing the double yellow line. I'd strongly recommend avoiding this. It's a dangerous maneuver, and there are frequent accidents at this intersection.
