This was truly one of the best experiences I’ve had. First off, they had a fine wine we found in Paris available in stock. Secondly, when our shipment went awry, they reshipped it to us at no cost. They were gracious and kind I just wish they were closer to Brooklyn.!! By the way the wine was Le Carillon de Rouget 2011 a small way to support our friends in France

I’m so glad I found this place. I’ve been trying to find a store in Southern California that sells Mariage Freres’s tea from France, specifically the Marco Polo tea. I came across a post on Facebook that this store carries this brand of tea from France. Happy to find that this place is very close to my work. The price for the tea is comparable to online stores, but I don’t have to pay for shipping. Plus I get to smell different kinds of teas! The staff was friendly and helpful. I will go back again. Free public parking for 2 hours before 6pm.

Tre Magnifique! Heritage Wines was such a nice surprise. After roughing it and picnicking at a nearby Beverly Hills park, we were ready to get back into civilization, so we crossed the street and came across this gem. Walked in on a quiet Saturday afternoon and despite being in shorts and flip flops, the gorgeous woman in the tight black dress and teardrop diamond earrings behind the counter didn’t even hesitate to welcome us and fill us in on what she was pouring. There was one other couple doing a tasting at the bar and she did a great job of making us both feel well taken care of. The space is sleek and stunning, I mean you instantly raise your pinkies once you settle into one of their leather club chairs while you sip your french rosé. The walls are a wealth of French goodies everywhere, not just wine! French mustards, tea, and even Poilane bread that they import daily! WHAT? Despite the bountiful sophistication of this place there is no stuffiness. Reasonably priced bottles mixed in with some insanely expensive vintages. Tastings are also reasonable priced($ 18 – 20) and the somm really knew her stuff. I enjoyed a generously poured rosé for under $ 12 and the bottle was about $ 30 to take home. Perhaps not something I’d do all the time, but also no bad for the 90210 address and experience. I’d definitely return to Heritage. P. S. This is a great date spot gents! This will impress your Mon Cherie for sure!(especially if she/he is a francophile like moi)

A store with only French wines — mostly very expensive ones. The high prices and small selection clearly makes this a boutique wine shop. It’s good for finding one bottle, but not really good for restocking the cellar unless you have deep pockets. A classy and elliptical shaped room, the store was ideal for trying their wines. With snacks from the Cheese Store of Beverly Hills and bread from Poilane, it’s easy to get comfortable here. The wine menu was simple and vague — $ 10 for rosé, $ 14 for white, $ 14 for red. I’ve only seen a menu like that at very low end restaurants where the server generally doesn’t know the winery. At least, they know what is being served here. They know their stuff and are pouring very good wines. The one-size-fits-all cost leads to some sideways pricing. The red poured at $ 14 a glass was sold in the store for $ 22 a bottle. Yikes! Better to come here at happy hour from Tue-Fri 4−7P where the same wines were half price. Or better yet, the shop should drop the fixed price menu and charge the glasses based on the bottle cost. This would also allow customers to try something expensive and special above $ 30 a glass along with the economical wines at $ 10. The entrance faces Canon Dr., not Little Santa Monica Blvd. I don’t wish this, but I can’t imagine they’ll stay open for very long — particularly with the new Wally’s a couple doors away.

I’m only a month late with my review but better late than never. Who said the French were snobs?! Okay, it is a beautifully designed, inviting wine store, has handsome, well-dressed French owners/staff and an incredible selection of the finest French wines and champagnes located in Beverly Hills,… but don’t let the stereo type fool you. They were absolutely kind, congenial, knowledgeable and helpful. I arrived early and to my surprise, during happy hour– right after work to meet up with friends. *Happy Hour is from 4pm — 7pm* …And boy did I need a good glass of wine to decompress. I was approached by Simon, who was approachable, warm, friendly and knew his wines. He had some great recommendations and led me to the counter of their bar for tastings by the ounce. They have comfortable bar stools and Queen Anne chairs appropriately arranged throughout their store for ample seating while you enjoy a glass of wine or champagne. I’m not normally a white wine drinker but Jordane and Etienne behind the bar poured me a few tastings. One that stood out was the Bertrand and Marchard de Gramont Bourgogne aligote 2011. I enjoyed it so much, I purchased a bottle. The store may come off as very posh and expensive but they are warm, inviting and have reasonably priced wines that start at about $ 15. a bottle. The ambiance and atmosphere was a plus! In addition to their wines, they offer pairings with cheese and artisan bread. The particular night I was there, the owner and representative for HNINA(Healthy Gourmet Dark Chocolate), Vanessa was providing tastings of her chocolates to pair with the wines. They were so yummy and went great with the wines I tasted I purchased a box. She was also the sweetest(pun intended) and so cute with her French accent. If I lived or worked nearby, this would be my go-to wine place because I’m a big wine-O. But I’ll be sure to stop in whenever I’m in Beverly Hills to build my French wine collection. Big«Thank You!» to Brittany F. for introducing me to this great wine shop. PARKING is offered for free up to two hours in the garage a couple of doors down and if you’re lucky, you may be able to find street parking.

Increíble! Walking in, I was a bit hesitant to taste some wines. Since I was on the waiting list for their Sommelier Event on 2÷6÷15, Heritage Fine Wines offered me and a guest a complimentary tasting. I had to take advantage of it since the tasting was till the end of the month. Once inside, both sommeliers acknowledged and made me feel welcomed. I asked for their opinion on the best wine. The lady, brought me a Rosé wine. And she was not stingy with the pouring! Made myself more comfortable and sat on this awesome furry chair. Explored all of their inventory and was amazed by how patient and kind she was with me. I must have asked her so many questions, but she didn’t seem bothered. I am definitely coming back!

Excuse my French, but I’m in… Beverly Hills. But I might as well be in a beautiful wine cellar in France. The best word to describe this place is exquisite. The wine and the wine selection is exquisite, the store itself is exquisite, and the vibe is exquisite. The store owner is friendly and insanely knowledgeable about the wines he has as well as wine in general. Upon walking in, my friend and I were greeted and immediate asked about what our preferences. He really made an effort to pair us with the correct wines. Also, the store’s adorable mascot, Paco, was happily curled up at our feet which just added a great element to the the whole experience. The vibe of the store is absolutely wonderful. It’s very classy and trendy but had that rustic appeal. I genuinely love Heritage Wines. My friend and I already wanted to come back before we had even left. Just come with a friend, sit down with Paco, and soak in the ambiance with a truly great glass of French wine. And pick up as many bottles as possible to bring home.

Heritage Fine Wines is an excellent addition to Beverly Hills. The store serves as a wine bar and shop. They offer tastings or you can drop in to pick up a bottle. Most if not all of their wines are from France. The staff is not only informative about their wine but they are passionate about each pour. There is a story about where the wine is from, and why they offer it to their guests. The quality of their wines is really evident as soon as you taste them. They have bottles that vary in cost. I would drop in for a tasting or to pick up a bottle for a special occasion!

A beautiful space, a charming owner, and a selection of amazing French wines. I wanted to buy a bottle of almost everything I tried. My favorite was the Domaine des Cajoles — Beaujolais — Brouilly — Vines Centenaries(2012), which was shockingly only $ 25 for a bottle. Go for happy hour, sit at the bar, chat with the nice, knowledgable staff, and take home a bottle or two for later…

Heritage wine shop is such a wonderful addition to the Beverly Hills triangle. I couldn’t help but notice it from the street as it has such a beautiful space and the architecture is exceptional. I was so pleased by the wine selection and so elegantly displayed along the walls. Truly something for every type of wine enthusiast. What I found that was unexpected was the vegan chocolate which was so delicious and also health conscious; something I really appreciate! The staff is all so knowledgeable and pleasant to interact with. Oh and the bread is delivered daily from Paris !!! A must try !

Wow! What a great store. The wine selections are first class. Hands down one of the best wine shops in Los Angeles. No questions the owner knows his French wines. If you are a person who enjoys great wine you must give this place a try. The prices are excellent for the quality you get here. No matter who helps you at this store will give you the best advise about wines. If you are buying red or white you can’t go wrong. The plus about shopping here you can taste the wine and enjoy great happy hours. No questions this my new place to buy all my wine. Honesty 10+ Service 10+ Knowledgeable 10+ Selections 10+

What a beautiful new wine bar in Beverly Hills! The space is elegant with the most gorgeous and comfortable furniture and décor. It looks like anyone’s dream wine cellar! Jordan and Simon really take pride in what they do and make it an enjoyable experience for all. Heritage has bread imported from French daily, so it’s always fresh. They sell Hnina chocolates and truffles that are to die for, and excellent pairings with the varietals. They bring in cheese from The Cheese Store of Beverly Hills. I highly recommend stopping by Heritage Fine Wines to taste the finest French Wines!

«Parisian Chic» Once I got over the shock that Heritage Wines has free parking I was able to enter the very chic glass doors of the tasting room… Pros: The selections are what a Sommeliers dreams are made of coupled with the very attractive staff. I enjoyed a tasting of 5 selections-1 White; a Rose and 3 Reds. Every ounce was good enough to write home to Moms about coupled with the cheese that is served from The Cheese Store of Beverly Hills. Overall, I would call the décor a «Librarians Wine Lounge» because I could of curled up with a good book and made a decent night of it, if not for the 30+ people in my way. Cons: I went to Heritage for an event so there wasn’t a capacity to do my usual inquiring about pairings; wine club options, shameless flirting, etc. I’m a huge fan of ports and old vines so I can’t wait to go back and nab a Social Workers life savings worth of wine.

Great upscale wine store with a tasting bar. My first visit was part of the Unilocal Somm Series. The store specializes in French wine, but also has a few French extras such as teas and jams. The staff was very pleasant with great customer service. Very lovely and I will visit again when I’m in Beverly Hills.

An intimate and elegant wine bar, at the heart of Beverly Hills. Owner and staff are primarily French… good looking and knowledgable gents in long hair and seductive accents. Vintage couches, game boards, candles lights after sunset… ask for French pop music and they will gladly play. Take a deep breath when you see the wine collection on both side of the walls(yes, when you notice the price tags). But of course, you can come here for happy hour tasting while each glass is reasonably priced. Great ambiance for dates and friends. Parking is two-hour free in the lot a few doors south.

Increidible wine store that brings meaning to buying a bottle of wine. Chains like Bev Mo are fine if you know exactly what you want and they happen to carry it or if you are bargain hunting, but if you want something special, something memorable, something unique, this is the place to come. They sell only French wines and have relationships with the producers of all the wines they carry. Jordane or Simon are more than happy to spend their time helping you find the perfect bottle. On a budget? That’s ok too because their wines start at $ 15 a bottle. The Cotes De Rhone that I purchased for $ 15 was far better than many more expensive bottles that I’ve had. They offer tastings by the ounce, which is a great way to expand your palate and learn more about different varietals. They also sell the worlds best bread, Poline, which is imported directly from Paris. Pair this bread with the small cheese plate they have from The Cheese Store of Beverly Hills and I can guarantee you’ll be in heaven. The store itself is beautiful and so inviting. The counter for tasting has comfy bar stools and there are large armchairs where you can sit back, relax and play a game. Park for free for two hours in the parking garage just two doors down.

There are many wine stores in Beverly Hills but this one is by far my favorite! They have all the best French Wines and Champagnes. I like when people are really good at what they do and you won’t find anyone else as knowledgeable as those guys on French wines and other specialty food products. Great boutique!

Jordane made me feel like so welcome as a North Carolina girl in a new environment! The French wines were unparalleled to anything that I have ever had! I highly recommend it to anyone local or a visitor from afar. A true French experience in a place where they say there is no culture!
