The staff and selection at Finch's is second to none. When you know what you want, ordering online and doing a curbside pickup is faster than any grocery store (or now, with Shipt, have it delivered to you!), and when you're not sure, Nate Dauphin and his team will help guide you to the exact right bottle, always at an incredible value. They will even help you pick out wines for your next event. Visit Finch Fine Wines to find your perfect bottle.

Really enjoyed the free wine tasting! I tried 6 wines and brought a bottle home for dinner. I believe they do them every few weeks, so check out their social media for the next one!

Best selection, most knowledgeable staff, and they love to teach. You will never go wrong with one of Nate or David’s recommendations. For a truly enjoyable experience, let them pair wines with a dinner you’re planning….the wine and the food will be better together than either is without the other.

This is a small but mighty wine shop! They offer and a great selection of wines for both the casual wine drinker and more knowledgeable wine drinkers looking for wines to expand their knowledge and enjoyment.Finch also has a sommelier managing the store. He is very easy to talk to about wines, no matter what your knowledge level. He also offers "classes" on wines, focusing on a grape, or a region, or another interesting wine grouping. These are fun, with small groups of up to 13, and offer the opportunity to experience wines that might be out reach - either due to availability or price - normally.My favorite thing that the store offers are their every-other-week Zoom wine tastings. People purchase the wines at the store, then every other Friday evening, we log into a Zoom meeting where Nate (the sommelier) talks about the selections for the week. It offers a great opportunity to share thoughts about the wines, ask questions, and enjoy the wines without having to leave the couch! Many participants have been enjoying these for years, and have found friendships that expand beyond the Zooms, but they also welcome new people to the group.This small store is a gem in Birmingham! My favorite wine store by far.

Finch’s wine shop is my favorite place to buy wine. I can always get recommendations from their team and everyone is very knowledgeable. We especially enjoy the virtual wine tastings and the wine connoisseur classes with the sommelier, Nate. Very personalized experience!

Great service but more important. Finch helped me zero in on the wine I really enjoy. I participated in a virtual tasting and realized I don't like high alcohol wines. All I taste is alcohol. now a simple look at the label tells me if I have a good chance of liking the wine.

Best Wine Shop in town! Nate, David and the whole staff are incredibly knowledgeable, easy to work with and take the guesswork out of any questions you might have. They work hard so you don't have to! Great selection in-shop and have access to rare and older bottles. If you want it, they can find it! Also great understanding of and selection of value wines.The "Zoom" tastings, led by Nate, are informal, informative and most fun. Great for oenophiles, novices and everyone in between. The best way to enjoy, learn about and discuss wine with staff and regulars without having to take an Uber home!The monthly Wine Club is a great way to expand your vino horizons, and if you are ever able to attend one of the Connoisseur Courses, you will have an experience you will not soon forget.Cannot say enough good things about Finch Fine Wines. Get by there soon, you won't regret it!

I’ve been a customer of Finch Fine Wines since early 2020. They have a great model with a very good online catalog of wines that are available. Online orders are usually ready for pickup at the store within a day or two.But if you have an immediate need they do have a good selection of wines in store. All of the staff I have interacted with over the years are helpful and very knowledgeable.The monthly wine club is a great value and allows you to try a curated selection of wine each month.

The best part about Finch Fine Wines is the plethora of knowledge shared whether you’re selecting a bottle of wine for a special meal or as a gift or during the virtual tastings. The sommelier and general manager, Nate, is your go to guy when it comes to finding something special for any occasion. And, the virtual wine tastings are a must if you haven’t participated yet. Great wines are chosen for the tastings, and all of the details about the wine are shared. My personal favorite!!!!

Best local wine shop in town! Wide selection of wine in shop, staff is friendly and extremely knowledgeable, and prices are fair. They will help with food pairings and keep you at your preferred price point! If they don't have a specific wine you are looking for, there is a good chance they can get it from their sources. No wine snobbery here! Highly recommend!
