Corks Wine & Spirits

We are frequent shoppers here, which is a little scary to say! The selection of wine is hands down the best you’ll find in Knoxville, it’s carefully selected by the awesome team that runs the store, some of which are sommeliers. I never know what I want so I tend to ask what they recommend with whatever dinner I’m having and they have yet to steer me wrong! They’re all incredibly friendly and personable, and we certainly will go out of our way to make sure we’re buying from here.
They have an excellent beer and liquor selection, and now they have not only draft beer to fill up a growler with (they’ve got two sizes available and rotating beers with the seasons) they also have house wine on tap as well! I’d never seen that before.
To top it off they carry all the goods you need to make an awesome mixed drink; stuffed olives, locally made syrups (the Eli Mason Old Fashioned mix and Mint Julep mix are amazing! Which is saying a lot because we make ours the traditional way usually) and specialty glasses.

Staff is super knowledgeable. Stopped on our way home to Michigan and picked up some craft beers not available in our area. Great store.

This store is A+. They feature so many good wines and liquors. They also have an ever-​expanding selection of bitters, tonics, notions, and potions to satisfy the home mixologist in you. Sign up for their email list to get the (frequent and good) specials, and announcements for tastings, which are always cool.

Never noticed this place until today. We love wine from different countries. This establishment is very nice and very clean. It has a great assortment of wine. The staff was very knowledgable and the prices were what to be expected in Turkey Creek but, not overly priced. Reasonable.
Will be returning here.

Well, apparently you can’t buy wine in grocery stores in Tennessee, so I was happy to find this gem next to Publix.
They have a HUGE wine selection, and the bottles range in prices so anyone shopping on a budget can find some wine, too.
The staff was really nice AND knowledgable about wine. I also experience a tasting of some very interesting (and tasty) wines.
This very clean business will definitely get my business again!

Amazing selection! These guys have wine I’ve never seen before in the entire state! They also have half bottles which are great if you wanna try a really good wine without breaking the bank. Prices are great too– most notable wines I saw were 5−10% cheaper than I’ve seem around town. Tried the daily tasting too and although I didn’t love them– the atmosphere, music, & décor were perfect! I described what I did like and they found a few good fits. Customer service was 5 star. I’ll be back here for sure

What a pleasant surprise! We wandered in here on our way to Publix and noticed a sign advertising a South African wine tasting. Heyoooooooooooo…
What a beautiful space! If only all liquor/​wine stores were this lovely… everything is so pleasantly organized and spaced on the shelf that you really want to take the time to look at everything, even if there’s no way in Hades you’re gonna take home a quart of moonshine or a bottle of horchata liqueur. This is where the 5 star rating pops in!
The bourbon and single malt selection is terrific. There were so many unique items here that I had never seen, and what’s more is that the owner took the time to walk us through his offerings and make recommendations based off what we said we enjoyed.
But more importantly, the WINE. First off, the South African wine selection is one of the best I’ve seen anywhere in the States. And again, bonus on the tasting! But even better, everything I asked — do you have a chenin blanc? do you have a sancerre? do you have a french rose? — was met with at least one option, if not more. Perfect. And what’s better? He was right — the Whispering Angel rose he recommended really is one of the best roses I’ve ever ever had. YAY!
This is exactly the type of liquor store that Knoxville needs: terrific selection, a warm inviting space, and folks that will help you find exactly what you need without breaking your bank. I will definitely return when I’m back in town to see what new offerings they have!

Superb wine store with a great selection and staff who really know what they’re talking about. Their website shows them to be highly educated in wine and the wine industry. Everything they recommended to us was very good, and they respected our price point. It’s slightly more expensive than other wine stores in the area, but I’m not sure you can find this level of expertise elsewhere.

They have a good selection of wine and spirits, and a decent selection of high gravity beer. I was pretty turned off by the place after I asked them to start carrying a high gravity hard cider. I even brought them a bottle to try. They never called me after so I visited the store and it was as if I were a stranger and they had only a vivid memory of me bringing the bottle in. Again I left my contact info and am still waiting for them to get back to me. I doubt that will happen.
I will not be patronizing this store in the future. There are many other establishments out there that would be happy to do business with me.

Fantastic wine shop, great and knowledgable staff, and regular tastings! Highly recommended!
