My go-to wine store. Not only do they have an amazing selection but their staff are super knowledgeable and they don't make wine buying an intimidating experience. Everyone is really helpful. They have been consistently open during the entire pandemic and for that I am grateful!

consistently understaffed. if you happen to be the unlucky person who does not shop on a consistent basis-you are ignored. the sad part is the store will stay open because they cater to the rich-not the average person

Probably one of the best wine shops in the bay area, with amazing selections of French and Italian wines. Sometimes the shop can be crowded due to it being in Market Hall, but overall great selections
Paul Marcus Wines is a friendly, sophisticated neighborhood wineshop in the Rockridge district of Oakland, California. We carry European and domestic wines, with an emphasis on distinctive French, Italian, German, Austrian, Spanish, Central and Eastern European, and Californian producers. We taste and personally select everything in the store in order to bring you the highest quality, most authentic, and best value wines from these regions. Because we are a part of the Market Hall, a European-style food market comprising independently owned vendors, we emphasize food-friendly wines. We're always happy to share our enthusiasm for wine and food with you and to help you select wines that will best match your meal (or vice versa).
