A great store, a large selection of wines, cognac, brandy and whiskey. Quite reasonable prices. There are many alcoholic beverages that are not available in chain stores. Friendly consultants. Thank you, I am now your regular customer :)

I love this store. It is small and a little cramped, not very conveniently located. There's a large parking lot right in front of the entrance, but it's always busy. There are parking spaces in the courtyard of the building ;-)
But! There is a wonderful assortment of wines, it differs significantly from most shops. If you can't find the right wine, go here. If you don't know which wine to choose, you are welcome here. If you need to take a gift or a tasty treat with wine, you will also find it here. And there is a flower shop nearby, in the same building.
Prices here, at first glance, seem average and above average, but this is not the case. It's just that there is no cheap ink in the assortment, there are no drunks and their smell either. The wines are of good quality here, and they are sold cheaper than similar ones in other stores. And there are also discounts when you can treat yourself to alcohol, which you can't really buy without a discount.
The staff here is polite, friendly, unobtrusive.
And most importantly, they know what they are selling. There are few places where sellers are so well-versed in the assortment.
They won't look at you with square eyes like "how do you not know this?!". Despite the fact that the girls have knowledge about wines at the level of a good sommelier, they explain everything simply, kindly, without arrogance.
In general, there is a very warm atmosphere here, as if I did not go to the store, but sat in a nice cafe in pleasant company.. There are few customers, there are no queues, everyone is paid attention. I searched for a long time all over Minsk and not only for the right sherry (I needed 2 types: "Cream" and dry), Other stores had either very poor quality or sky-high prices (200-300 rubles), and more often there was no sherry at all. Here I found both types of good quality for 75 rubles and for 20 rubles.I knew what I was looking for and why, but I was happy to listen to the saleswoman's recommendations.
I didn't want to carry the bottles, so I said that one of these days I would send someone for sherry. The girl remembered me, but when a friend came to buy wine, before buying, she offered to call me back and asked if the sherry needed to be sold. There were a couple more types and when I was in the store I still didn't know which one to choose. My eyes ran away from such a choice there (and I've been looking for this wine for about a year). I also bought cigarettes there (they have more Russian ones) - Winston Silver, I haven't seen them for a long time.
By the way, the friend I sent for sherry bought cognac there... on an industrial scale :-)
An additional bonus is that good coffee is brewed inexpensively. A good selection of cigarettes. There are all sorts of goodies, souvenirs and household trifles.
