Amazing selection, reasonable prices, great service

Millesima's inner sanctum is an elegant architectural wonder to behold. Every time I walk into this room, I am enveloped in aesthetic elegance and sophistication. The team is gracious, inviting, knowledgeable, and without an air of haughtiness. The wines and price range are for the novice with little $ to spare to the wine connoisseur. Millesima is a wine store experience for everyone.

넓고 완벽한 와인샵입니다. 데일리와인부터 최고급와인까지 다양하게 보유하고 있습니다. 매주 목요일과 금요일 오후 5시-7시에 와인시음회가 무료로 열리니 참여하는 것도 좋은 경험이 될 것으로 생각됩니다. 와인 세일도 진행합니다.

Millesima efficiently delivered two magnums of an interesting wine with bottle age. It was very easy from start to finish.

I was lucky to find Millesima 5 years ago…Michaél has taken care of me all the way and I could not recommend him more highly. Always professional, quickly learned our tastes and helps with great suggestions.

(Edited) After prior negative online order experience, Luis professionally explained the situation and discounted my next order. Second time around everything was perfect

The best French wine store in NYC. Very good prices.

Very well curated inventory and excellent guidance for you selection process. Probably the best Bordeaux source in NYC. Friendly staff. Very knowledgeable.

Millesima is my go-to wine store. Selection is amazing, staff is extremely knowledgeable and friendly, and they have great weekly in-store tastings.

Amazing set up, great selection, very attentive staff, best prices for all budgets

Normally don’t give reviews, but this store is essentially 10/10, come and you’ll know why!

Impressive selection. I was going for a reasonably priced wine but it seems to be the place to go to get high end bottles and large formats.

Very pleased with my experience as a "walk-in/walk-out" customer. Friendly, sincere, a good selection and great customer service. Thank you !

Millesima always provides excellent service for my libations orders.

Fantastic shop, great Bordeaux and Champagne selection!

They are incredibly detail oriented! I cannot wait to order my next crate of wine.

Amazing wine store with an incredible selection and very helpful staff.

Good

Excellent selection. Helpful staff. Great website that that accurately reflects everything in the store.

Wonderful store with great events!

Great store. Very well curated selection. Knowledgeable staff.

Very friendly and helpful team at the store. Thanks again for all the help!

I ordered two bottles of champagne and received exceptional service from Millesima. They kept me informed every step of the way, for the shipment and gave me such personal attention, even for a relatively small order. We had it on New Year's Eve, and the champagne was wonderful. It got rave reviews from everyone who tasted it and aside from a bottle of Salon champagne I had years ago, it was the best champagne. Superior to Dom Perignon, if you ask me. That was my first experience with Millesima, but there will be much more to come!!

PHENOMENAL customer service. I called and they picked up on the first ring. After calling one wine store after another while walking around Midtown East and UES for an hour, they had plenty in stock and were extremely accommodating. Great quick and polite service. Will definitely make the trek from Harlem every time to shop their products.

I’ve been stopping in to Millesima off and on when I am in the area (I don’t live nearby) and am always happy with the selection of affordable wines for everyday occasions and their knowledge of their products to recommend a higher end wine or spirit when the occasion calls for it. The team there has gotten to know my tastes well enough that I can ask them to put together a case of wine with great variety in flavors, food pairing and cost so I can discover something new when I choose to have a case delivered. Maybe they should start a wine club.....hint, hint.

I love Millesima’s weekly tasting! I come every Thursday to learn more and taste great wines that I don’t normally gravitate to. It’s an added bonus to try the wines before you buy. The people who pour the wines are always super knowledgeable and friendly.

Millesima is a gem of the Upper East Side. They carry a fabulous selection of French wine, as well as wines from all over the world. When you walk in the door, they are immediately friendly and helpful, and will guide you to wonderful choices that suit your preferences. The prices are incredibly reasonable, and their inventory is widely varied, making it easy for everyone to find something they like. I am so fortunate to have found this place! It is by far the BEST wine shop in the area!

Great, extensive wine selection, especially when it comes to specialty formats, OWC, etc. Michael at Millesima ensured satisfaction on my behalf as a customer and I appreciated his willingness to do so. I would and have bought from here again.

An outstanding collection of wines. Though they sell the notably high end and the more affordables there might be matters of their judgement which govern some choices. Some time ago I asked for a bottle of Beaujolais Nouveau and was told most surely that they didn't carry it. The advice is knowledgeable and the customer is not steered to the more expensive.

Having high expectations when it comes to wine, MILLESIMA always knows how to fulfill my requests and needs... I've been going for a while now and never was disappointed ! They always have the perfect fit for each occasion - not only they have high end quality wines but also affordable (but still delicious) bottles. Another great thing about Millesima is that they deliver... From the owner to the summer intern everyone is very knowledgeable and helpful. This is a MUST GO wine shop in the Upper Easr Side Don’t miss their wine and liquor tastings !

They had a group of Sparkling wines on sale for NYE festivities. Great staff and an awesome, curated selection of wine. Go to the back right of the store for wines on sale that have destroyed labels.

Their prices are very competitive, I got free shipping, and the customer service is just out of this world! They are attentive to detail, caring, they keep you informed in a personalized manner. I am delighted to support this kind of business.

My go-to wine place for years. Good selection, good variety of prices, friendly staff, convenient location. I’ve never been disappointed with a purchase here. Recommend!

Best wine store in NYC. Great collection. Great and knowledgeable staff. A wonderful wine experience!

Amazing store and very good service

I buy all my Bordeaux futures here. Great selection of hard to find rare wines

With Morrell closing their Rockefeller store front and Sherry Lehmann long gone bankrupt, Millesima might be the best store in Manhattan for French Wines. Good for wines at all price ranges. They have great stock of older wines whose provenance is without doubt. Competitive prices.

While I live in France, I knew of Millesima USA because of their great reputation in Europe and very extensive collection of Bordeaux wines. I stopped by their New York City store to pick up a gift for a friend while I was in town. The selection of wines they had in shop from around the world was incredible and the staff was VERY knowledgeable. I mentioned it was going to be a gift for a friend and they wrapped up the wine so beautifully for an extra special touch. Their attention to detail and large selection puts them ahead of the saturated wine shops in the city by far.

I’ve been there to buy some gift wine for my friend during my NYC trip. I bought Rioja wine, Riesling, Moet. They were nice. People working here are very kind. Thank you. I will visit next time too.

Went for their wine tasting event and learnt a bit about choosing wine for the occasion. Big shoutout to the staff- very pleasant and welcoming ❗️

Wonderful store. Kurt from Australia is so nice and knowledgeable

Beautiful new location on the corner of 66 and second they have a large selection of wines from $15 up to hundreds +++ By far the nicest build out I have ever seen in NY

Love this wine store. They have variety of wines to choose from & every price range. This is my favorite Italian wine, priced at reasonable. You should give this wine store a try.

A warm welcome awaits you in this magnificent shop, and professionalism is guaranteed! The whole team was great during my visit.

The people are so helpful and the variety of great wines at fair prices is terrific

Best selection of large format and 2nd wine Bordeaux! Fast friendly service. Insane inventory. GREAT prices. I am very impressed and more able to share the wines I like at parties because of the price and selection here. I am SO happy to have been recommended Millesima for all of my wine needs. Millesima - A Somms best friend!

What a fantastic place! Great and knowledgeable people, fantastic wine tasting, and wonderful selection!

An amazing store with wide varieties of wine selection:)

The wine is excellent and fairly priced. The service is the best I have experienced in a wine store. We had a shipment that went astray, and the sales person was quickly on the case to make things right.

Came here for their wine tasting event and Henry was absolutely amazing! He was enthusiastic, professional, and explained each wine vividly. Kaylee was also spectacular in helping me choose the perfect wine for me! The atmosphere of this place is so welcoming! Definitely a returning customer. ❤️

If you like fine wine, this is the place to go. Even if you are a novice, they have great wine tastings and the staff is always knowledgeable and helpful. We have ordered bottles as well and have had no issues.

Good service. Nice store. A lot of options

I have been here 2 weeks ago , outsanding wines and shop

I like this wine shop as my walk-in place with friendly staff that can recommend on the spot. It is clean, open and organized. We've been able to enjoy them consistently so will be back!

Just beautiful, like a wine museum. Unfortunately the prices for desirable hard to get wines are top of the market for the most selections. But if you just picked up that Basquiat at the gallery and wanted to grab a bottle to celebrate, they will definitely have something you like. They know their neighborhood, and presumably their customer base. A likely replacement for the Sherry Lehman crowd now that they are in bankruptcy.

We ordered 6 bottles of Dom Perignon champagne- 2 regular 2012’s, 2 of the Lady Gaga rosé, and one of the 2010 Lady Gaga special edition. Not an inexpensive order. They shipped the wrong Rosé’s and also shipped the regular and both Rosé without the boxes. Half of the purpose of purchasing a collectible bottle is for the specialty box, which is also important when gifting. I emailed within 20 minutes of receiving the order to let them know of the mistake with the Rosé and also to ask for the boxes, as the listings clearly showed the boxes included. I was responded to right away, saying to ship back the wrong bottles and they’d replace. When I asked about the boxes I was ignored. I called the store and left 2 voicemails and never heard back. After 3 days I emailed again clarifying the box issue and was again ignored. After being ignored a third time I decided I was done. I don’t feel comfortable shipping back the bottles to a company who won’t even respond to fix their own error. So now I have 2 bottles I didn’t really want, and no packaging for gifting purposes. Bottom line I do not recommend ordering from Millesima online at all. You don’t get what you pay for, and if they make a mistake, you’re on your own. EDIT: company did finally respond and arrange to ship the missing boxes and fix the wine error.

I was disappointed with my recent experience at Millesima. Yesterday I purchased a bottle of sake for my boyfriend but realized later it wasn’t the one he prefers. When I returned to the store to exchange it, I was told that exchanges are against the law. While I understand the need to follow regulations, it was frustrating that this policy wasn’t posted anywhere in the store or ever mentioned when going back and forth on which bottle to get. I had walked back in the freezing cold with the unopened bottle, hoping for a simple exchange, but instead of making an exception, they didn’t, which put a bad taste in my mouth. It’s an unfortunate experience that makes me not want to return, despite the store’s nice selection.

I bought the box of Bordeaux in November 17, the credit card was charged November 18, I been notified on February 04 about the shipping charges ($47 via UPS Ground for 38 lbs box of wine from NY to Washington DC (calculated UPS charges are $23, , I expect to get the wine February 06

I received notice that my wine order had shipped on July 17 and would arrive within the week. Its is now August 5 and I have still not received the shipment although my credit card has been billed.

Terrible manager terrible store

the wine I bought was corked. they will try to gaslight you into thinking you just “don’t like it”. pathetic!!!!!!!

I don't trust these folks. Shipped wine in 90+ degree weather without notice. They would not make good on the heat-damaged wine claiming it was my fault for not being home.

Terrible service and even worse when 2 out of 12 bottles were stale/bad on delivery! The store used to be a goto when under the french lady but staff has turned over and they are rude/unhelpful with bad wine. Stay away would be my recommendation. Updating after response from manager. —-No, I did call. Yes your staff was rude and told me that I did not know the difference between wine that I didn’t like vs wine that had GONE BAD! Also noticed part of my previous comment was removed or deleted.

Unfriendly staff. Not wearing mask over nose. When asked why labels were falling off many wines (2017 vintage - $70 bottle) the response was “crap glue from a bad producer nothing against the wine though”. Nice sales pitch. Have been there before and didn’t buy because of lack of knowledge. Can’t be an Italian wine store and not know what franciacorta is.

This is not a business you should trust. I ordered a shipment of wine from them and paid them over $300. After receiving no communication for 5 months, they reached out to me to tell me that I would have to pay another %15 plus shipping. This had something to do with tariffs enforced by the government after I placed my order. They told me they wouldn't send me my purchase unless I paid the extra money. I really don't understand why this is my responsibility to pay. If they had place my order sooner they wouldn't owe this. I have never paid for any product in my life, to then have the retailer come ask me for more money after the sale. This is unethical and not the way a company should do business.

this place is a scam, especially their own online store. Placed an order every time I call I get put on hold. No one comes. I’ve sent emails. No response. They say stuff is in stock. It’s not do not order from here.

Horrible service. Sold bottle of wine that was spoiled. Would not send anyone to replace it. And we are regular customers there. So i had to call amex and cancel charge

They sent broken cases, don't reply to emails and make the worst experience ever when ordering thousands of dollars of wine. And did it twice. And still no response. Avoid.

They sent broken cases, don't reply to emails and make the worst experience ever when ordering thousands of dollars of wine. And did it twice. And still no response. Avoid.

I placed an order in June 2025, by Feb 2026 have barely received a response to my numerous emails and phone calls and have still not received my wine. I would stay away.

I would not recommend ordering wine futures through Millesima. I’ve worked with several brokers and Millesima has made up 90% of my frustration. They kept getting order details wrong, double charged me for months at a time, will not respond to emails within two weeks/month, and will not answer any questions when you call them on the phone. I can understand that mistakes happen, but then it’s all about how you recover. There was no recovery from Millesima, just radio silence and increased frustration for me.

I had a very disappointing experience with this store. I ordered a collectible champagne bottle via Millesima's online store (a $300 Dom Pérignon Limited Edition Takashi Murakami Vintage 2015), and when it arrived, both the bottle and the box had noticeable scratches. I suppose this might not be an issue with a normal bottle of champagne, but since I intended to keep this one on display and not drink it and dispose of it, I contacted the store with photos, and their team explicitly told me via email that I was “more than welcome” to come in and exchange it for one in better condition. After taking time out of my workday to go to the store (which was not close to my apartment), I was told that an exchange would not be possible. The sales associate was also rude to me in the store, despite how accommodating they made themselves sound over email. This left me feeling sad and embarrassed, especially since I had sent photos of the damage ahead of time specifically to avoid ending up in this kind of situation. When I later requested a full return due to the obvious defects, I was told that no returns or exchanges are allowed under any circumstance, despite the initial offer to replace the bottle. In stark contrast, I reached out directly to Dom Pérignon after this experience to see if they could help me, and the difference in service was really night and day. They immediately offered to replace the bottle without hesitation and were consistently kind and responsive. To top it all off, I ran into issues shipping the damaged bottle back using their prepaid label (due to FedEx restrictions on shipping alcohol/needing a license to do so) and Dom Pérignon even apologized for that and simply told me to keep the damaged bottle instead of putting me through more hassle. Now I literally have two of the collectible bottle, and can drink the damaged one and keep the perfect one that Dom P sent. That level of above-and-beyond professionalism and generosity made Millesima’s handling of the situation feel even more disappointing. I do understand store policies, but the inconsistency/poor communication and lack of accountability here were incredibly frustrating. For a high-end retailer, I expected far better customer service. I definitely won’t be purchasing from them again.

I received an email on 12/15 stating my order would be shipped that day via overnight shipping. On Wednesday 12/17 I still had not received my order. I called Millesima customer service and was told that the bottles were in stock and the order would be shipped later that day despite having already paid for overnight shipping. Later that day I received another call from Millesima stating that one of the bottles was not in stock and that the remaining bottle would be shipped and a refund would be issued. As of this review, I still had not received a tracking number or any indication the wine has shipped. More importantly, I have not received a refund. Customer service regarding this transaction has been nonexistent.

It has been a very frustrating experience. I placed an online order to send a gift to a friend, but the order was cancelled even though my card was charged. I’ve emailed the company multiple times requesting a refund, but I haven’t received any response. I haven’t received my money back on my card still. I DO NOT recommend this company to anyone.
