Readers' Choice 2012: Name the Best Wine Store in the Tri-Cities!
We expect a spirited debate on which of the many superb wine-selling establishments in Geneva, Batavia and St. Charles are the best at what they do.
There's service. There's selection. There's vintage. There's personal attention, expertise, friendliness and, obviously, good taste.
When you want to buy a fine wine, one that's right for the occasion and your price range, you know where to go. There is a place where the wine cellar is superb, and the wine seller is even better—a place with people you trust.
What we want to know is: Where is this place, and who are these people?
What is the St. Charles, Batavia and Geneva choice for the Best Wine-Seller in the Tri-Cities?
Nominations were accepted on Geneva, Batavia and St. Charles Patch through July 9.
- Gibby's Wine Den—Geneva
- Galena Cellars Vineyard & Winery—Geneva
- SavWay Fine Wine & Spirits—St. Charles
- Trader Joe's—Batavia
Winners in all Readers' Choice categories will be announced on Aug. 24.
The poll will open to accept votes from registered Patch users starting on July 23 and close at 11:59 p.m. on Aug. 17.
Bottle of red, bottle of white. It all depends upon your appetite. But where you find that bottle, ah, that's what we want to know.
