#supermarket #winestore https://www.tastingroom.pl/ https://www.thecorkscrew.ie/ What is the difference between supermarkets and the wine store? The first difference is the wine selection. Independent wine store offers a wider selection of wines including lesser know wine producing countries such Slovenia, Armenia, Uruguay or Greece. Which is most of the supermarket wines comes from the large producing countries such as Spain, Itlay, France, US, Chile, Australia and so on. If you are looking for let say Tannat from Uruguay, Spätburgunder from Germany of Tasmanian sparkling wine, you will easily found them at the independent wine stores such as The Corkscrew Wine and Spirit Merchants in Dublin or Tasting Room in Poznań (Poland). Wine store are really focused on independent, small and boutique wine producers, theses place are focused on qulity wines. The other huge difference in between supermarket and wine store is the level of customer service. Majority of staff members working at the supermarket, have no wine knowledge at all, which is on the other hand most of the staff members working at the independent wine stores are really knowledge and passionate about the wine. They either passed the WSET or Court of Master Sommeliers exams. Great and knowledge service of independent wine store is the huge advantage over supermarkets!
