Savory Sips

This wine shop is the best in town. The owner, Becky, is very informative and only stocks the best wines and for the best value. Check out her Facebook page for her free Wednesday tasting events. Taste and learn about wine while meeting new people, and she has nice snacks too!!!

What a sweet wine store! Stopped in here after dinner on Hertel one night on the recommendation of a coworker. So glad we did! Rebecca was fantastic, she got to know what I like and then offered a variety of options. I picked one bottle, tried it this weekend, and loved it. I will definitely be returning.

Savory Sips has amazing wine and the owner, Rebecca, is the embodiment of what a business owner should be. She talks to you in depth about each wine, gets to know her customers and truly appreciates your business. Have yet to have a wine I didn’t like at Savory Sips!

I went to the new location of Savory Sips on Hertel Ave. What a great job Rebecca the owner did of decorating & making you feel welcome! I would recommend this wine store to all of my friends. I only wish it was closer to me I would be there all the time. :)
Great wines at affordable prices what more can you ask for.

Loved this spot!!! My sister and I had a private wine tasting with the owner and loved every minute. She was very passionate and knowledgable about wine and was able to help steer us to wines that would suit our tastebuds! The charm at atmosphere of this spot is my favorite! There is a small tasting bar with couches and seating for a tasting night out. Peanuts, dark chocolate, cheese and crackers were even provided! The location is conveniently located to great restaurants and bars on hertel to hit up before or after your tasting/​shopping. The wines presented were delicious. Very smooth and of high quality (88 – 96 rating). In addition, the prices are very reasonable as the majority of wines are under $ 20 per bottle. Can’t wait for our next visit for a tasting with friends and to stop in to stock my shelves and start my Xmas list soon! Will definitely be back:)

Based on one visit
This is a small place with a lot of heart, the proprietor is very friendly, generous with tasting pours, and has curated an interesting selection of wines at a good price point, many from France/​Italy as well as good amount from South America, etc.
While I appreciated her focus on small-​production wines off the beaten path, I also felt that it was somewhat too focused on trendy wine buzzwords like biodynamic, natural wines, which also didn’t jive with the marketing mention of all the wines scoring 88 – 96 points. I’ve seen ppl writing of how reviewers’ points help sell wine, but I feel that somehow that vestige of the Parkerized part of the wine world goes against the spirit of the rest of this wine shop’s ethos, which is otherwise very admirable, esp for the Buffalo area. I was also disappointed that there wasn’t more of a local selection of wines… I had wanted to try some of the wines that NY is known for, like finger lakes Rieslings, but they weren’t available when I visited.
Those are minor quibbles, however. It’s a fun place to visit and very much worth supporting. Keep it up!

Great selection, excellent value. Rebecca is very knowledgeable and tastings everyday!

This has become my go-​to wine store. The selection is unmatched — not in volume — but in variety. The owner is so helpful and knows everything about every bottle of wine in the store. My only complaint is I visit (and buy) too often!

This is the same business that was previously in Lewiston. My husband and I stopped by after noticing it was still open. The proprietor welcomed us in and explained that she specializes in international small batch wines. She offered a tasting and asked what we were interested in. She then walked us through all white wines that match our tastes. We bought two bottles – everything in the shop is priced $ 11 – 27 and rated 88−96 – you seriously can’t go wrong! We stayed around and chatted for a bit about the neighborhood, she was really pleasant and it was an unexpected treat. She does public tastings once a month. Can’t wait to try the wine I bought!
