Lovely people to deal with. Super kind, patient and quick to respond. They have a good selection of non alcoholic wines that actually taste like wine! Which was perfectly on time for my husband's birthday getaway. I saw they have fun wine tastings with macarons and other events too. So I'm def signing up for those! Thanks everyone!

Nathalie and her staff are always a pleasure to deal with. I purchase the wine for our gallery events through her as well as am a member of her wine club. Love that I am supporting smaller producers and a local business owner, like myself. My eyes have been opened to so many new and amazing wines outside of those you find at the big box liquor stores.

Absolute best wine store. The folks there are passionate about wine and go above and beyond to help customers. Also the Saturday tastings are a great way to discover new wines!I went in one day looking for 3 different rose’s to do a little tasting with friends and Jen helped me so much and even emailed me some info on each wine and on the rose wine making process! I was truly grateful that she took the time to do that and it made the experience unforgettable!

I've been going to Vine Styles for years and would highly recommend visiting this awesome and well curated wine shop! All of the staff at Vine Styles are extremely knowledgable, friendly and helpful. Everybody goes out of their way to understand your taste and help you pick the right bottle that fits your needs. I especially want to thank Nathalie - thank you for all of your help and wonderful recommendations. I love trying new things, and Nathalie brings in a lot of fun and unique bottles.Another aspect of the store that I really like is the rotating art that is showcased in the store. Not only can I buy wine, but I have also bought a few cool art pieces as well.Overall, it's a great hidden gem in Kensington that I highly recommend visiting!

This is my favourite wine store in Calgary. Once you understand what style of wines you like, it’s easy to walk up to your “wall” because literally anything you pick will be something that satisfies your palate. Don’t know what you like? Head over on a Saturday and try 6 wines and discover your style!Nathalie has done a great job in curating an exceptional wine experience. Her staff is excellent and super friendly, all of them scholars at various levels of Wine Spirit and Education Trust certification. They know what they’re talking about. I have a group of friends that meet every month at the shop for a wine tasting, and every time the wines are top notch.It’s always my first stop when I go shopping for wine. And usually I don’t need to go anywhere else. I’m delighted and grateful something like this exists in Calgary.

I'm glad to be able to walk to this fabulous wine store in Kensington! All the staff are knowledgeable and helpful. The wines on offer are a carefully curated boutique selection that you would have to work hard to find elsewhere. On Saturday afternoon "Discover Your Style Day" you can taste a selection of wines so that you can buy with confidence, knowing that you will like it! Also, if you're "into " wine, they host a variety of private tastings and functions. I have been to many of these over the years, and always come away happy, having been introduced to yet another amazing wine or two! Nathalie, the owner, does a fantastic job. Somehow she remembers what you like, and skillfully steers you towards new suggestions. I would give this place ten stars if I could, but five is the maximum allowed!

Whether you're an oenophile or a newbie to wine, get thee to Vinestyles! Great knowledgable staff that always introduce me to different styles and discover new favourites, they take the time to help you make the right choice. A boutique approach to wine with unique producers along with some stellar liquor and a wall of delicious beers and ciders to choose from. If you've never been, check out their Saturday Style Day tastings and it's also a great spot to host intimate events for teams. A woman-owned business, Nat and her team always make my experience a good one, even though I always leave with more than I came in for, I'm never disappointed. Here are a few of my favourites...

I love this wine store and am so glad it's in our neighbourhood. The staff is friendly and knowledgable with no attitude. The store being organized by wine styles instead of by country, makes choosing less nebulous. That said, I usually just let the staff guide me and I always go home with something yummy. Great store!

Terrible service. We bought beer for a friend’s bday. They had printed the description of the beer earlier in the year for me and it was awesome!Today at 230 pm,( suppose to close at 7pm), they refused to do it saying they were too busy. I was the only one there! The owner said that she was busy in the back and did not have to account for her time to me! This was rude. And when the back of your store is more important than a client, you have another problem. You just lost clients.

Without question, the best wine store that we have ever visited. The staff if very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Wandering in on a Saturday afternoon, we enjoyed a spectacular wine tasting and learned so much from the people pouring the wines. This store offers so many unique wines at such a wide array of prices - it is easy to get exactly what we are looking for. Will look forward to revisiting on a regular basis.

Natalie shared her wealth of Sommelier knowledge on sparkling wines with us at our corporate event. I was very impressed with her enthusiasm and the depth of her experience. It was a very enjoyable event. I loved the selection wines that she shared, and the exceptional cheese pairings. I was also delighted at the partnership Vine Styles have with another Kensington favourite - Peasant Cheese Shop!
