Editorial Reviews from the web

This longtime Seattle wine merchant carries a wide selection of vintages from all over the world.

The Scene This Seattle wine merchant spent more than 28 years at its small location on First Avenue. Although it was sometimes difficult to find (wedged between two larger buildings), wine enthusiasts sought out the small store for its knowledgeable staff and well-priced selections. However, the store suddenly found itself in the shadows of a big new neighbor: Safeco Field. In late... more

Its nice that the shelving is low and you can see across the entire store. There is always a good deal and someone around to help you. Wine tasting on Thursdays is a big hit!

Not just storage by Kathleen A. at InsiderPages

Esquin is not just wine storage but wine tasting and wine buying.
Easy parking on 4th, they have wine tasting every Saturday 1 to 4pm. Its a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon or before a game. The staff is very knowledgable about all types of wines.

No Contest...

Esquin is where you go for bargains but they have sorta lost a step in the past couple of years. They've succumbed to the trend of carrying more upper-tier wines when they clearly made their bones in value stuff.

I have found my wine source.

Since I began my journey into wine about a year ago, I had been looking for a shop that met my needs.

Esquin is that place. I willingly drive from Federal Way to there, even though they ship $100+ orders free to my home.

The staff is knowledgeable and friendly, the selection is great, and the prices are very good.
