Divino Wine & Spirits

This is by far one of the most helpful and educated group of people I have been able to meet in a wine store. I feel a though every time I go in there I learn way more about regions, wine making and distilling processes than I ever thought I would. It is in a very non pretentious and low key attitude. They will never make you feel pressured or silly for asking any question. Plus my dog is welcome inside!

Awesome service, if they don’t have it they can probably get it! Just ask, it doesn’t hurt. I love the $ 10 and under wine wall!

The staff at Divino is always wonderful and so helpful. I hosted a whiskey and wine tasting party and hired Tyler, one of their sommeliers. He was amazing! Everyone that came had such a great time and Jason did a fantastic job of helping me pick out which whiskeys and wines to taste at my party. I have also come in there for gifts and again had help picking out the perfect birthday present. They even wrapped it up beautifully! I would recommend their services to anyone, as it is obvious that each staff member loves their job an so willing to help!

For a guy who has shelled out over $ 300 for a bottle of bubbly, you would be pretty disappointed to find out that my drink (s) of choice now is Keystone Light with shots of bourbon in between. With that being said, I may or may not drink anything you put in front of me.
When I first moved to Denver, I was a hermit. I drove up and down Broadway, enjoying the sights and scenery, and that was about it. One thing I did notice on Broadway was the amount of liquor stores– I felt like I was back in Louisville, KY. It was a Sunday afternoon, and I saw this place– so I decided to give it a chance. PS– this place creeps up quickly, I had to take a uie as I blew by it the first time.
They have a small lot on the side of the building (shared with other businesses), and limited street parking. I took the lot, and headed in.
My first impression of the place reminded me of an old bookstore, except with fancy bottles of booze on the shelf. Don’t expect to find classics such as Pepe Lopez or Old Grandad here– except to find smaller batch, craft liquors here. I was impressed, and I felt kind of ignorant after seeing the amount of booze I had never seen in my life before (when I say I have a Master’s Degree in alcoholism, that is not a joke).
Believe it or not, I didn’t even make it to the back half of the store. I was enthralled in all of the brown and gold/​silver booze. I liked also how each spirit had an old metal marker to identify what it was. You can tell the clerk you want number 6, 8, and so on, and they will be glad to help you.
I found some rye whiskey I had never heard of before, and gave it a whirl. The staff was very friendly, and helpful– and wished my return. Unfortunately, I have not made it back since.
Don’t be upset when you come in here looking for a handle of Cuervo– that’s what all of the liquor stores down the street are for.

I live in the neighborhood and really wanted to like this establishment. I have popped in here a few times to grab a bottle for dinner. While there is a good selection of reasonably priced wines from different regions, the service is quite poor. Twice I have been at the counter to pay after picking something out before someone asks if there are any questions — This isn’t the pharmacy (I know how to drink the wine) so some customer service before would have been nice. I love Mondo Vino in the Highlands and was really hoping to have the same experience in my neighborhood.

I’m reluctant to tell you this, because the little buggers often sell out of Owen Roe Wash Red «Abbot’s Table», but it might just change your life.
It changed mine. So much so I drive 28 minutes ONE-​WAY to this place.
I was looking for a boutique wine shop where I can get something special that I can’t even find in the two mega-​giant alcohol/​beer/​wine stores I live near.
(Owen Roe also creates the price approachable and popular Corvidae line, also sold here).
Beautiful wine shop, light, space, and lots of street parking. Always 1 – 3 staff to help.

Great wine selection. Always very helpful.
If you’re willing to spend the dollars, they have the best options around.

Great selection of wines and liquor, not a 5 star just due to smaller selection of beers. Overall a great store and friendly staff.

What’s not to love?! Amazing and knowledgeable staff — it’s almost and insult to call them staff, actually. They’re super passionate about their bottles and happy to give recommendations. Not snooty AT ALL and if you are looking to learn more about wines and sample some Colorado winters, this place is wonderful!

If you aren’t too busy gazing up at the overwhelming floor to ceiling shelves stocked full of every kind of booze imaginable, you may notice the super nice staff greeting you with a grin and armed with any answer to any question.
On the quest for the best champagne for an expectant mommy that had to abstain from the bubbly for a whole 9 months, I knew I needed to get the good stuff. As we wandered to the back of the store that recalls the same charming, organized chaos feeling as you’d probably receive in that wand store Harry Potter visits in the first book. The store is literally overflowing with product, but all in a organized disarray.
We made it to special sparkling wine area where he briefed me with some great knowledge. I wouldn’t have known about the flavor profiles of sparkling wine and would’ve just kept sipping the store-​bought brand bubbly (which in some scenarios, is also appropriate :).
The parking on South Broadway down there can be a little tricky, but they do have their own parking lot and when you’re in the mood for some serious booze shopping — this place is definitely worth the trip.

Flawless. Organized, clean, well stocked for the size of the location. The best part is that the staff is extremely knowledgable but not arrogant or condescending. It’s a little pricey but you’re paying for service and you can definitely get it here.

Four Sommeliers are on staff– that should tell you something. Great bottles in every price range. I trust their recommendations, and I don’t think they would carry a bottle they thought was the least bit crummy. Really interesting sections of the more peculiar grapes. I would go here and talk to them if you are really into wine, or just getting into wine. Good sprits selection too, beer selection is just okay. They specialize in wine, not beer, go else ware for beer. Free wine tastings Saturdays. If you want a beer Former Future shares a parking lot. If you are going north on Broadway, the road is super tore up after the snow, avoid the far right lane.

I stumbled upon Divino driving by the other night. The light shining strategically on the long row of bottles drew me in like a moth to a flame.
As soon as I walked inside I thought boutique and OMG– I’m not going to get out of here without spending at least $ 100!
I begin looking for the usual suspects: Orin Swift. Clos du Bois. Jordan. Coppola. Etc. Etc. Nah man! The owner was there and in so many word I asked «what’s your angle»? With cool he replied that they simply carry what they like. What they want to drink on random Wednesdays. What they want to serve on special occasions. What you don’t see on every shelf at every wine store.
Some of the labels were hard to find. Some were simply underrated. I felt like a total wine rookie. I mean… I thought I knew a few things about vino. But I realized I was simply just comfortable going to my list of favorites. I needed to find new favorites damnit!!! And Divino is the place to do it.
Don’t get me wrong, the big box wine stores have their place and they haven’t lost me (yet). But if you want to feel special and walk out the door with a bottle… or 2. or 3 that you’ve never had before, stop in.
Btw– they have SEVERAL bottles that are priced as «dailies». Average price somewhere around $ 11. I asked for a red «daily» that would knock my socks off. I took home a nice French blend. My socks were literally and figuratively off a couple hours later!!!
I cannot wait to go back, glad I live nearby!
Enjoy!

My favorite liquor store on South Broadway. The selection of spirits is excellent, including lots of local distilleries. I enjoy perusing shelves to try new things. They have a good price range ($ 10 to $$$$$) so plenty of options for every budget. If you’re attempting new cocktails, ask the staff for recommendations. They also have a selection of bar accessories and unique mixers in the far back corner.

Excellent selection of well picked beers and very helpful service. I forgot about this place for a while but it’ll be a normal stop from now on.

This is a great place. Good selection of wine and spirits combined with a passionate and knowledgeable staff.

I love Divino. I usually end up chatting with Jason and he’s fantastic about finding new items that I really love. They’re also really great about special ordering things that you love with no fuss.
What’s great about Divino is that they cater to people like me (or that I can be) — people with particular tastes and know a lot about wine and are looking for something new and adventurous. You’re probably not going to find your major labels if you’re looking for generic wine, BUT…
They always have a great selection, right up front, of bottles of wine that are around $ 10. So if you’re not looking to break the bank and don’t know what you’re looking for, I’m positive the staff can find something affordable for you.
Coming from a guy who knows his wine, I can tell you that this store may not have as many SKUs as your larger liquor store/​wine shops, but they can find something for you whether you’re a sommelier or someone just looking for a nice drink on your porch on a warm afternoon.
PS — sign up for their newsletter, you get advance notice of the wines they’re tasting and their great values for the month.

Best selection of wine from 10 to 30 bucks I’ve found– E-​V-​E-​R!
Was looking for vegan wines and Dave printed an entire list for me. They have really reasonably priced wine that is also small batch wine producers. I am a serious fan now. I won’t go any where else now.

Divino is a great spot on South Broadway for wine. When I came in I was looking for a quick box of wine, as this has been budget friendly for the house label. They had boxes I was unfamiliar with, but the gentleman working there was knowledgeable and quick to point out the better ones. I went with his advice and was not disappointed. Looking around I saw great selections of wines for a wide range of prices. The man working was very friendly, his dog even more so (I made a new friend, it seems), and I gladly came back a couple days later.
They also have a small but great selection of liquor, and I did see a beer cooler in the back but I didn’t peruse this.
Divino is a great store. I’ll be coming here quite a bit, I’m predicting.
Cheers!

This is what a liquor store should be. Extremely organized clearly marked and good prices! The selection here is king, the amount of whiskey is just incredible. It took me 20 minutes to take it all in before I found something. Granted now that I know what the carry I won’t be taking that long next time. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. If your looking for the best place for liquor in Denver look no further.
