Great service, but it can always improve...

I had three lockers already shipped by Wine Spies. Just had one small problem the last time when the shipment was taking longer to be shipped. I contacted them and the issue was fixed on the same day. The customer service is top notch and all the deliveries were fast and painless. I wouldn't recommend the VAULT feature. Tried twice and the wines were disappointing -the last one was a sparkling from Oregon that seems good, but I don't drink sparkling wines, so it's 20 bucks in the trash for me. Another thing that bothers me is that sometimes the "full price" isn't real and we can find similar offers around the web. I recommend that you run a little online research before buying bottles. Having said that it's a great place to find reasonable cabernet offers and from some gem wineries outside the obvious routes in Napa or Sonoma. I found two of my favorite wineries through entry wines offered on Wine Spies, and I became a huge fan of the Red Hills Lake County AVA after tasting three wines from that place just north of Napa (which saved me some money). I highly recommend the service, the locker feature is great and what makes me come back to them.
