AAAAAWWWWWEEEEEEESSSSSOOOOMMMMMEEEEEE!
Arite so found this place during my college days. Every week they have different varieties of $2.99 bottles of wine. $2.99!!!!! Best wine in the world, no, but decent quality in classy bottles yes. And there is tons of variety... merlot, chardonay, pinot.....
Upstairs they usually have different wine tastings going on which is one of my favorite aspects of wine stores. I've bought many of the bottles of wine that I've tasted here. Tons of varieties, good prices, knowledgable staff = 5 stars! -

I have both gone into the shop and ordered online and been very disappointed both times. Customer service is really lacking here - part of the pleasure for me of buying wine is the chatting with a knowledgable person and learning something. Well all I get here is a pointed finger or a hurried thrust of a very expensive bottle into my hands.
Online my experience was worse. I needed the wine for a party, so wrote a note on my order to that effect. At 4pm on the day of the party I called the shop and asked if they were indeed going to deliver, only to be told that that there is no delivery on the weekend and "The Internet department" (which seems to get blamed for everything) wasn't in at the weekend, so no one looked at my order. Fair enough - but they could have stated that on their website.
When I asked them to box up my order so I could rush up and grab it in time for my party, I was told that they were far too busy and I would have to come and pick out the wine myself. I cancelled the order and went to Acker Merral instead. They were brilliant - helped me with the wine selection and delivered within the hour.
Today (three days later) I got an email from 67 telling me that my order is on its way. I called up and was told that it was the fault of the Internet Department... -

Helpful staff and some of the island's best prices and selection. The store's website is regularly updated with sale information and the latest prices, which is a nice added bonus.

This is a great place to go for wines. They have a great selection, knowledgeable about their wines and they have regular wine tastings where anyone coming in is invited to join. Their knowledge about their wines are very useful where they an narrow the type of wine given only a little information about what you like of foods and what price range you are looking for.
I have gone here many times to explore new wines when they have a wine or a liquor tasting. it is fascinating just to walk around and look at their VERY broad selection of wines. -

Everytime I go to NYC I visit 67 Wine! They have the most comprehensive list of wines that I've every seen. The best kosher wine selection I've ever seen which is pretty rare to get such an extensive selection. Also every time I visit, the staff has been uber nice, helpful, and knowledgeable bringing my experience to 5 stars. They always appeal to my palate!

Super rude on the phone. Normally I wouldn't really care about rudeness if they get the job done, but I actually had to say "forget about it" and not finish ordering. Will never bother calling again.

I usually wouldn't even think of reviewing a wine store. But I've been on the hunt for 2 very specific wines and this place had both!
Blame it on my dad but I am a bit of a wine snob. I've toured wineries, done dozens of wine tastings, and have developed a particular taste for certain wines.
I've been looking for the Chook sparkling Shiraz from Australia for a while since I don't want to keep dropping $40 for a bottle at Casellula. Didn't have any luck 'til now. I also wanted to find the late harvest Zinfandel dessert wine from Dashe winery in California. And they had it also!! So so thrilled!
The staff were also all very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. I'll definitely be hitting them up for my future wine hunts. -

(3.5 stars)
Every time I have entered this store for the past 10 years, the infamous House of Pain song comes to mind:
"Pack it up, pack it in, let me begin..."
However, there literally isn't any room to jump around in this store, because they crammed the contents of three wine stores into a small two-story retail space on 67th and Columbus.
They do have a broad selection of champagnes, whites, and cheapie bottles on the ground floor, and reds on the 2nd floor. This is a much better store in terms of price, service, and selection compared to the local UWS competition, but it wouldn't be by first or second choice if I were trying to find a wine for a special occassion or a solid under-$15 value wine (Acker Merrill and Astor Wine & Spirits does that well on both accounts).
The one reason to trek up here is their extensive selection of half-bottles. If you want to mix and match some Rioja, Rhone, or California Chardonnay by different producers, there are a couple shelves worth of red, white, champagne, and even dessert wines where you can sample two bottles for a little more than the price of one. -

Besides work, 67 Wine & Spirits is probably my most visited place in New York City!
It's almost become embarrassing to become a "regular", but it's right down the block from my apartment- passing it everyday, it's inevitable to stop in after work and pick up a nice bottle of wine to relax from way too much talk about finance and investments.
67 Wine & Spirits is a little store, but hosts big flavors. They have a broad selection of champagnes, reds and whites from California, Oregon, Spain, and my favorite France. The employees are knowledgeable in their wines and occasionally will tell stories of vineyards and school me on my selections.
I'm in here just about every other day purchasing a new bottle of wine and have yet to find a disappointing bottle in the store! If you live on the UWS and need a wine store- this is simply the best!
Come drink with me. :) -

My new favorite UWS wine store. The selection is great, the prices are even better, and the staff is very knowledgeable. A little cramped, sure, but if that's what it takes to pack in a fantastic selection, I'm in. I love this place for the selection of wines from California, Oregon, and France in particular, and I love that they often have specials on some of my favorite wines (e.g. Sequoia Grove cabernet sauvignon).
Also, the bulldog that hangs out on the second floor sometimes is pretty awesome :) -

I love this little store on the UWS! They have the white wines, liquor and sparklings on the 1st floor and the reds on the 2nd floor. The store is small but their selection is awesome. They have a great website that you can check if they carry the wine you're looking for before you go (which I do a lot if I like a wine at a restaurant). They do same day delivery in Manhattan and have good prices. They have wine tastings all the time which really helps in trying new things.
But what gives this store 5 stars is their staff. They really know their wine and are very helpful and nice. Most Fridays I walked into the store with a vague description of what I want to drink and their suggestions are always spot on. -

What I really like about 67 Wine and Spirits is the diverse selection of wines. It's nicely organized by red, white, and rose. Then, it's divided up by region - South Africa, New Zealand, California, etc. The staff is incredibly helpful.
Additionally, they have a nice selection of wines that cost less than $15, which is very nice for the budget conscious like me. If I could be drinking $30 bottles every night, I would, but for now, those that fall in the $8-$15 range will do just fine. -

Wow. The staff really knows their wine. And they were very kind to me; someone who knows next to nothing about selecting a good bottle of wine.
I gave them my price range (it's a gift) and they gave me a great option.
Bonus points: free gift wrapping. -

With some time to kill and not wanting to do much more than browse, we crossed the street and stumbled upon a little wine tasting in the upstairs half of this Upper West Side wine shop. The offering was a selection of Austrian Wines and the vintners were on hand to talk about their respective wines and the climate and all the other stuff that hard core wine people talk about while I am getting tipsy from an embarrassingly small dose of alcohol. After what I considered to be 7 generous pours, and all the information my seive-like brain could handle, we had to leave. We were on the way to a movie and needed to have some kind of mental ability to retain and process information, lest those tickets go to waste. These tastings are a common event, apparently. That's good to know.
I've been here a few times and always have been fairly pleased with the results. I've even managed to walk away with some surprising finds. Half the time, I find exactly what I'm after, the other half I confidently take a recommendation and have yet to make any enemies over the result.
We're always looking for a rare wine that we discovered once in Sonoma County. While they did not have it and could not get it, they did point us to someone who possibly could. That always leaves me with a good taste in my mouth (and no desire to spit).
So come here with a plan (however vague) and if you can't find exactly what you're after, chances are good they can tell you where to find it or you might just find something new and unexpected.Listed in: Upper West Side, In Vino Veritas

Decent selection, good sales, knowledgeable employees and multiple wine-tastings every week make this one of the wine shops I frequent.
Stop in and be surprised as all they can fit in a shop that doesn't look all that big from the outside. -

This place is so UWS. Lots of customers who look like college professors, classical music playing throughout the store, and a nice, knowledgeable staff. I was looking for a specific bottle of wine by a specific vineyard (Ridge's Geyserville) for my wife's birthday. I called a few places and got varying degrees of "uhhh's" and "ummmm's" and "no's". I called 67 and got a friendly voice on the phone and asked if they had the wine. The guy knew the winery, new the type of wine, and chatted me up about it vs. another comparable Ridge wine (Lytton Springs). These wines by Ridge are not super expensive, fancy wines, just good, solid wines for people who like their wine.
So, I went to the store and picked up the bottle. The store is actually on Columbus Ave on the corner of 68th street, which is a bit odd. The store is well-staffed, but I would say a bit cramped, as it is sometimes hard to squeeze by people in the aisles. Also, the red wine is upstairs as I found out after making 10 circles around the first floor. On the "red wine floor", most of the bottles are locked behind clear plexi-glass panels. I mean, almost all the red wine, not just the $100+ wines. That was kind of annoying, having to get a staff member to come open the case each time you want something. I guess there are a lot of broke wine aficionados that like to boost wine on the UWS. The prices are in-line with other wine shops. Nothing jumped out as out overpriced.
The other nice thing about this shop is that they carry Plymouth Gin, my favorite, and a rare find in NYC. -

Came in here to pick up some wine and vodka (we needed a lot of alcohol) for our pre-party before going out that night. We stopped in because it was right on the way back to our hotel. I guess being from California I'm a bit biased... I mean, I've had my share of wines from new zealand, italy, chile, france, portugal, blah blah blah. but most of them just don't compare to California wines in my opinion. I was disappointed in the selection to be honest. The men working at this store also stared at sabra and I like were aliens from another planet. I mean, I know sometimes we talk in that silly "cali girl" routine, but it's just for fun you guys. Geez! They like, totally took it seriously...like, omigod, how could they be so totally lame. Like, we were just joking and stuff. Like, Duh!"

My favorite wine store in the city by far. Great selection of South American, French, and Spanish wines. The website is awesome and the service outstanding. A human still answers the phone! And when you go there you can always get great advice. Yes, it is a bit crammed inside but the service, selection and prices make the experience well worth it.

This place is dangerously convenient to and from my apartment -- one small Avenue away... Their prices are terrific -- easily the most affordable in the neighborhood: I've compared lots of different wines, vodkas, gins, scotches, bourbons, etc.. Everything is well-organized and nicely presented, everything is clean, the staff is really friendly and knowledgable, there are lots of free wine tastings, and they have a fantastic selection of glasses for wine and beer that are very well-priced.

I have never had a worse mail order experience in my life. I ordered a bottle of expensive cognac for my father's birthday a month in advance of the actual date. After not receiving a confirmation of shipment 2.5 weeks later, I called. After twice being told I would be called back with an order update (which I never was), I finally tracked somebody down who said the shipment would arrive within 5 days.
5 days later, no shipment and same level of customer service (I called several times and spoke with representatives that never called me back). Maybe it's fine for in-store purchases but I would never ever use their website nor shop there based upon the treatment received. -

What a fantastic wine selection! The staff here was really nice also, and it's kind of a pity I was in a rush cos I would have loved to browse around a bit. Nice Kosher wine selection too, many people haven't realized that it's not just Manischevitz any more! Slightly cramped but overall, pretty awesome.

Great prices for Manhattan. Still a bit pricey, but for Manhattan, the prices are great.
Huge selection, especially for Manhattan. There are two floors. Whites on the first floor, reds on the second floor.
Staff is generally pretty helpful. They're really friendly towards our dog so an added bonus there. When I don't have a free shipping code for ordering wine online, this is my go-to place. -

DON'T ASK FOR RECOMMENDATIONS!!!
It was very surprising that both my wife and myself on two different occasions asked for recommendations, described the kind of taste we were looking for; were pretty explicit. We are not inexperienced with wine. But, on both occasions their suggestion were REALLY BAD! Now, it is possible that that both sales people had different taste than ours. Understandable. But, on both occasions it was stated that they were the "store's" recommendation. Surprising for a place with such a strong stock and assortment. My last experience with their Henri de Villamont 2007 burgundy was really harsh and thin-bodied. Such a nice store, but so far such bad taste in wine suggestions. But, here is the real point. It is important to choose a wine store not only for its stock and variety... but one that can "really hear" what your looking for and match your tastes in wine. Otherwise, it just a store with a large variety and stock.Comment from Paul B. of 67 Wine & Spirits 8/8/2009

Well, well, well 67 Wine you really impressed me tonight. It was roomie night tonight and I had the job of bringing home some delicious wine. I had just got done working out at Reebok gym and like a moth to a light i floated right on over this very well lit and attractive wine shop. Inside, I felt like i was in the hull of a ship, everything around me was wooden and polished as I swam through the numerous stacks of wine. A nice smooth and inexpensive Cabernet sauvignon was the object of my affection and taste buds. The store was hopping as it was around 7:00 so I had trouble making my way through the white wine section, which occupies the main floor, to the stairwell that led to the red wine, my domain. As I fought the waves of people I docked for a hot second to sample some delicious champagne from France, mmmm, tasty and bubbly and intoxicating after my hour workout. Finally! I ascended the stairs and reached the vast array of red wine. I was in a hurry so I doggy paddled over to the cab/sav section and found a bottle called "Hanging Leaf," the label looked cool and sophisticated and the price was oh so right, 13 bones, so I grabbed it and headed back down the wooden stairs to the register and purchased with my plastic. The staff was very nice, though I expected someone to help me because I looked like a lost child in the white wine section trying to figure out where they kept the red, until duh, I saw the stairs, however the vibe was cool calm and collected and made me want to go back for more, oh and you bet your bottom dollar I will. So go and try it out today...oh and the wine was amazing, a 5 out of 5 stars, not kidding.

i ordered twice on line and each time the day after my order was processed i got a call saying they did not have the year i purchased. this last time they charged the wrong credit card and a week later i am still fighting with them to credit the wrong card - all with major attitude from the staff as if it was my fault they screwed up....still waiting for a return call they promised me 6 hours ago.
