We had the best time walking around this very tight fitting wine shop. But I will tell you they had everything that you could possibly want. We loved going down to Peru, the different wines in the different countries. The prices were really good. If you're looking for a bottle or two head into Rochambeau . It's a great little experience read more

See all

Absolutely the best shop around. Ask for recommendations they never miss. Most knowledgeable wine shop I've ever been to. Top of their class hands down! read more

May be one of, if not the best wine shop I ever been to. The sommelier there is in his game. Everything from 40 dollar bordeaux to 1600 rothschild, their selection is amazing read more

Courteous and knowledgeable staff, round selection-- starkly in contrast to other nearby stores.

We stopped by this wine shop on the to visit with family. Derek was guy who helped us and he was great. We live on the West coast and we were amazed to find such exclusive wines such as Merry Edwards Pinot Noir which is really awesome and difficult to find at any price. BTW, the price was really fair. I also noticed that they carry several of my favorites such as Joseph Phelps Cabernet Sauvignon. read more

Impressive selection. Very fair prices. Owner really knows his stuff. A lot of what's on those shelves is *not* easy for a small shop to get. Props to them for doing so. read more

A landmark in Dobbs Ferry and the Rivertowns with very knowledgeable staff who really know their customers' tastes. Need a gift for a local? They'll know what she drinks. A stead stream of commuters walking home each evening from the train station make their way to this charming shop in Dobbs' traditional downtown. Locals passing by are on alert for the "Tasting Today" sandwich board sign, featuring vintners and distillers both domestic and international. And no need to carry more than a bottle or two home in your bicycle basket or backpack, since Rochambeau delivers! read more

The absolute "go to" place if you're looking to purchase a nice bottle of wine or spirits. A finely curated, diverse selection in all price ranges, with an extremely knowledgable, friendly staff that has never steered me wrong. Let them know what you're looking for and how much you'd like to spend, and I dare you to be disappointed. Also, one of the best assortments of small batch Whiskies, Gins, & Vodkas that I've seen, anywhere. If you're looking to get a bottle of something for a gift, I wouldn't go anywhere else. And no, I don't work there, it's just really that good :- ) read more

One of my favorite wine stores in Westchester! So many interesting and new wines that cannot be found in other places in the area. Great selection of whiskey/bourbon too! Jeff and the rest of the staff are very knowledgable and always have great recommendations for me. read more

If you drink wine and live in the Rivertowns area you owe it to yourself to be a Rochambeau customer. Family owned since 1977. The current proprietor, Derek, despite his gruff exterior, cares about his customers and REALLY knows his stuff. The prices are quite reasonable-Within a buck or two of the big box stores which makes it an absolute no-brainer. Who would you rather have as your wine merchant: a polite but clueless 20-something pissant at Stew Leonard's, or a seasoned professional who has devoted his life to the biz? Do yourself and your community a favor and make this local institution your wine shop. read more

If you haven't tried Mr Black Coffee Liqueur, I suggest you get to it! This brand is out of this world and makes a mean espresso martini! I even drizzled it on ice cream and it was amazing. Great store location and wonderful staff to help with recommendations. read more

Funny, I saw another review validating my experience. The owner is so rude and belittling, I will never give them my business.

This place is the best wine/liquor store in the river towns. They're extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I live in Irvington where there are 2 wine stores and will still drive here. read more

Owner is rude but like another reviewer(s) said, so happy to see it wasn't only me! I walked in, a man was on the phone and workers in the back. I needed help selecting a wine so was looking around and also trying to get someone's attention. The man got off the phone and said to me, "Instead of walking around the store aimlessly, you could just ask me for help." So he is pointing the finger at the customer? I said, "You were on the phone and the others in the back seemed busy. I was waiting and also enjoying looking around. " I could not believe he started off with a customer accusing the person of doing something wrong when he was wrong if anyone. He could have told the person on phone to hold on and said to me he'll be with me in a minute or just anything. He could have said, "May I help you. You seem to need help. I see you walking around." when he got off the phone. Just anything else except to blame me for being the perfect customer would have been appropriate. Thereafter, he said he was the owner to me for 100 years (I'm exaggerating...but something like that). I did buy my wine there but in the future, I will go to Irvington Liquor here in my town which has to treat customers with more respect I would hope. read more

Ordered some wine to be delivered for a corporate holiday gift. These guys were so efficient, quick, and recommended a really nice wine for us in the price range we were seeking. They were also really friendly and patient over the phone. I definitely recommend them! read more

Owner was incredibly rude. Me and my fiancée went here while in Dobbs Ferry and the store is cramped, no room for more than one person in an isle. Selection is decent but nothing great. We were browsing and were stared down the entire time. The owner was happy to help an older gentleman and brought him to a wine and this happened to be next to where we were browsing and about to select a wine. He then said to the man "it's right there where those two are.... WHO ARE IN THE WAY." He raised his voice and then again told us we were in the way. We won't ever be returning here again and I encourage anyone reading this to do the same. He has been rude to other friends as well who had worse treatment than us unfortunately. It's not worth being treated that way, plenty of other great wine stores around. A little common decency would go a long way with customers but unfortunately this man has none. Nobody should be treated that way I assume he may have thought we weren't going to buy something since we were browsing at first and the other man knew what he wanted but we certainly weren't going to buy anything after that. It's not worth it going here and feeling like a second class citizen and being upset. I hope everyone avoids going through this and find a better place to shop for wine and liquor. read more

Greatest selection around and the owners can always point you in the direction of a perfect wine for your budget.

I called Jeff W. at Rochambeau Wines & Liquors this morning in a virtual panic. I needed a fine bottle of wine delivered to a client up in Dobbs Ferry, and I needed delivered instantly. Jeff sprang into action. He selected a very nice Cakebread Red Wine, and because his delivery person was out on another delivery, commissioned the Pizza Delivery Guy next door to deliver the wine to my client, along with a fresh pizza pie! The wine was wrapped exquisitely, and he even made sure I remembered to include a card. Jeff, you went above and beyond the call of duty. Thank you so much for your expedient, outstanding service. read more

Geoffrey is the most knowledgable, nicest guy ever. He remembers what like and steers you in the right direction. He's not looking to sell you an expensive bottle of wine, he finds you the best wine in your price range. read more

After a email from them i called excited to ask a few questions. I spoke to the owner who was by far the nastiest person in the wine industry who I ever encountered. I called back spoke to a salesmen i used in past who apologized and the owner came to phone and hung up again. This is all over a question over a size of a bottle of Palmer that was indeed going to buy. I CANT reiterate who nasty this guy was and even after i called back 2xs to discuss because i wanted the wine he became nastier. I guess some people have too much business. I then called a wine store in NYC who explained they hear this a lot. WORST AND NASTIEST SERVICE EVER read more

Charming shop with old creaky floors and a vintage wine cellar feel. They have a great selection at great prices and the staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. read more
