Table and Vine

It's not difficult to deduce why Table and Vine has been winning Best Liquor Store and Wine Selection for 11 years or more. With a store in West Springfield that has over 40,000 square feet of space with thousands of varieties of wine, 3,000 different spirits, and 1,300 varieties of beer, it's not surprising they get customers traveling from all over the region—even from larger cities like New York. While the selection is vast, so is the knowledge of the staff: between the three lead managers, there is an estimated 97 years' accumulated experience. This year they've expanded their wine staff, and in their own on-site tasting room they hold a range of events, including the popular Mondays With Michael, where participants engage in in-depth explorations of wine from a particular grape with Michael J. Quinlan, Jr., the corporate wine sales manager.
