Beer, Wine & Spirits in Rock Hill

The Wine Shop, as the name cheekily suggests, specializes in providing numerous wines in an easygoing, friendly shopping arena. With a densely populated stock of over 3,000 domestic and imported wines, and nearly 1,000 of these bottles priced under $12, there's no shortage of affordable potables to pick from. The smartcard you receive with today's deal actually operates on three machines contained within the store. Not altogether different from old-timey soda fountains, these non-vengeful examples of automata read the amount of credit on your smartcard and allow you to select a glass of wine accordingly. With three machines on hand, each is stocked with a variety of wines curated directly from the stock on hand, containing eight reds and four whites at all times, at varying price ranges. Make your selection and receive a glass of up to 4 ounces from the polished machinery, which keeps wine fresh between pours. Depending on the wines you choose, you can use your card over more than one visit, or use the entire value in one card-swiping go.

PRP Wine International's experts carefully select each bottle in their inventory from all corners of the globe and ship them directly to patrons’ doorsteps. They collect from vineyards in Germany, Hungary, Italy, and Australia as well as stockpiling an array of Spanish wines such as Vega del Geroa rioja, a maze of smoke and berries. Unique offerings include celebratory sparkling wines with gold flakes, and all are available through an online shop, private tastings conducted in clients' homes, or special tasting events.

Although wine is their specialty, PRP also deals wine-related gifts such as etched stemware, bottles, and personalized coasters. They can customize labels for special events such as weddings, birthdays, or a yacht's first bath, and they can seal bottles with a hand-dipped wax seal.

Modeled after an Old World wine cellar, WineStyles's shelves are lined with rare bottles accrued by its staff of in-house experts hailing from quality vineyards across the globe. The shop's bounty includes handcrafted gift boxes and baskets and merchandise, such as guidebooks for translating secret codes etched in cork. If a specific bottle is missing from the selection, the quaff gurus place an order that often arrives within 24 hours. Along with retailing wine and imbibing gear, WineStyles's crew grants guests the opportunity to sample new pours at frequent events and two-hour tastings three nights a week. For dedicated aficionados, the chief wine taster chooses two bottles to send to wine-club members along with tasting notes that detail their origins, a winery description, and suggested food pairings.
