To sample wines, I inserted my card into a slot in the corner of each of several state of the art machines, then pushed a button over the wines I wanted to try. The machine then dispensed a small sample directly from the bottles, which were behind small window panes in temperature-controlled boxes, and into my glass.
As you may recall, this new store at the corner of Route 35 and Bethany Road went into the vacant spot left when Hollywood Video moved out. I believe there might have been a small bank between Hollywood Video and Verizon -- that bank is gone, too; absorbed into the Wine Academy.
They told me they plan to hold weekly wine and beer classes, as well as the occasional event for the harder stuff - scotch and one other, I can't recall. They have a sizable floor stock of wines and hard liquor and a refrigerated section full of fancy brews. I think you'll want to pay them a visit and get one of their customer cards. So many wines, so little time!
