"Chris is always ready to provide valuable insights and recommendations whenever I need them. His service, selection, and pricing remains top notch! Whether you are a beginner or an experienced collector, I can't imagine a better person & store to help you along the way!"
- Sam
“As I became more interested in wine, I was introduced to Sokolin by a friend. In the past three years, there has truly been a relationship developed both with Chris, as well as several other folks at Sokolin. They are truly partners in this hobby; not simply a retailer looking to make a sale. From expert advice to sourcing bottles where provenance is critical, Sokolin checks all the boxes and then some. Sokolin is a trusted partner in wine.”
- Jamie
“Sometimes when I am traveling, I have stumbled on some gems and hard to gets. Chris has never failed to find them for me and chase them down. Always fast and efficient service.”
- Brian
“I’ve been doing business with your company for over a year now. During that time, I’ve really enjoyed working with Chris Kiegiel. He’s very knowledgeable and a class act. I’ve been collecting wine for over 30 years and have finally found someone who understands what I’m looking for and always comes up with great suggestions. I can call up Chris to share a story I read in Parker, for example, and he always shares my excitement. In short, Chris is as passionate as I am about the wine and that’s really saying something.”
- Paul
“Certainly the best personal customer service online. Great selection, reasonable prices, a slam dunk for purveying fine wines! My wine palate has expanded five-fold in the last year, thanks to Sokolin’s amazing selection of Old World wines and New World gems. All bottles handled with care and delivered with proper temperature control. For anything I cannot pick up while I’m tasting at the wineries, I buy from Sokolin. I’ve developed a relationship with my wine salesman at Sokolin to the point where he knows my palate and makes stellar recommendations, based on his knowledge of my preferences and favorite wine regions.”
- Jake
“I discovered Sokolin last year while buying fine wines for my daughter’s wedding. Then kept going, buying slowly as Daron sent promotions. Always best-year vintages, great names and fair prices (I checked). Over the past year have bought $40,000 of great wines, starting a superb wine cellar of over 400 bottles. Am delighted where we are, and plan to continue.”
- Mike
“...simply exquisite taste in wines! She has managed to consistently strike the right tone in terms of taste, style and cost. Corporate and personal gift giving has never been easier with Sokolin Wines...”
- Julia
“I will be blessed with my 35th wedding anniversary next month. Every five years my wife and I have celebrated by sharing a bottle of 1982 Chateau D'yquem, a bottle that has become increasingly hard for me to find. I was afraid our every five years tradition would come to an end this year. But then I discovered Chris... Once I shared my story with him he accepted my quest as a personal challenge. Not only did he find the bottle I sought but he was able to offer it at what I consider to be a very fair price. His commitment and level of customer service was truly off the charts. I am honored to offer my unqualified endorsement of Chris and Sokolin and look forward to growing our personal relationship in the future.”
- Ashley
“I have been purchasing wines from Sokolin for years—mostly Brunellos and Barolos, and have enjoyed the ease of purchase, the selection, the prices, and the direct relationship with one wine consultant. I highly recommend Sokolin.”
- Mitch
“Sokolin has become my go to vendor for difficult to find wines at very attractive prices. I’ve also discovered some new wines that have become favorites.

As an aside customer service by Chris has been great with timely alerts about arrival of purchases and easy storage during periods of bad weather.”
- Fred
“A bargain is only a bargain if it offers quality. I like Sokolin because that principal is at the core of its business: Sokolin sells quality. Even so, a business is personified by its employees. In my several years doing business with Sokolin, I have found Chris to be a perfect expression of the company. He is attentive and quickly responsive to questions and requests, and his word is absolutely reliable. I wish more businesses were as well put together.”
- Bernard

He is extremely helpful and knowledgeable and will always go above and beyond to help me with any request that I have.”
- Kim
“Chris, I can absolutely say that I have always enjoyed impeccable service from Sokolin and that great service has continued since you have joined the team. I have always received immediate responses to any questions and have had my orders placed and confirmed very efficiently. I have especially enjoyed Sokolin’s willingness to store my purchases for an extended period while I am completing my new home and wine cellar. I am looking forward to many more years in the future stocking my cellar with great wines from Sokolin. I must also add that your prices have been very competitive and I believe have typically been the best one could find anywhere on the internet.”
- Robert
"Daron, we are vacationing in France and Italy, and we have begun to realize how fortunate we are to have the wines we have at home and all the wines you have helped us explore over the years.

Sokolin and Chris Kiegiel continue to go above and beyond my expectations to make sure I am completely satisfied with every purchase!

"It is very rare in life that you come across a company who is so dedicated to their customer service, in Sokolin I am delighted to say that I found such a retailer. Ordering wine from the UK to family in America was turning into a logistical nightmare however, from the minute ... got on the case I knew that my troubles were over.

– Bob
“I recently began buying better wines for current consumption and for the cellar.

– Marc
“I first started buying wine from them when they were still in Manhattan probably 20 years ago. They are one of the best and most wine reputable brokers. I have been working with Chris for several years now and … he has a very strong knowledge of wine and I believe is a certified sommelier. One of the things I like best is that he knows what I like and in what price range I like to look. So that if they have something coming up which he knows I will like, he calls and lets me know. I have found their prices to be at or sometimes better than those even at discounters. I would highly recommend talking with Chris…”
– John

– Julio
“Thank you…as always, you are the best.”

– Ilario
“...You are the best…thanks!!”
– Steven
“I am a consumer who enjoys the diverse selection and price range of wines offered by Sokolin…our exposure to the breadth of selection of fine wines from foreign producers is somewhat limited. Sokolin opens up a new venue to acquire these wines. Service and responsiveness is A+. Their representatives... are knowledgeable and most important, candid when asked about any given wine. I recommend folks consider Sokolin as a source for fine wines.”
– Paul
“...I love the emails you send and your shipping and customer service is excellent.”
– Kyle
“You guys have excellent service!!!”
– Christine
“...you are wonderful! Thanks to you, we celebrated our 30th anniversary with wine from the year we were married. If the order had arrived after our anniversary, it would not have been the same.

– Karen
“Thanks so much! You all are great!”
– Mary-Frances
"Our experience with Sokolin over the last 9 years has been nothing short of exceptional across the board. My husband always appreciates Daron's emails with wines available specific to our "wish list". The wines always arrive in perfect condition, and timely. On the flip side, we have also sold many wines to Sokolin. Josh has always provided accurate, professional, and seamless transactions. He has made each conversation feel as though it was the highest priority. The communication and customer service over the years has made our experience enjoyable each time. My husband and I are grateful customers, and look forward to always turning to Sokolin for the best wine solutions. It’s a great team of people who care. Thank you very much; it is always a pleasure doing business with you."

“I do love how you guys find good values. I rarely have the time to do a lot of research and I don't drink a lot of wine. But when I do, I want a good one.”
– Paul
“The level of expertise and professionalism of the consultants is remarkable. In addition, you will find the competence of the shipping staff to be outstanding. And as for the wine selection.... it is exceptional; both in terms of breath and quality. If you want to purchase exquisite wine, Sokolin is the best partner you could hope for.”
– Louis
“My wife and I have been both a casual consumer of wine and casual user of Sokolin’s website for many years. At my home, we tend to drink a few bottles of wine a week on average. We focus on finding new wines we can enjoy and that can be purchased easily and at a good value. I tend to order a case at a time, half to drink now and half to cellar. Typically half of each case is either new wines to sample, or reorders that we previously drank and enjoyed. This is made so much easier by the personal attention provided... As someone who has a deeper interest wine knowledge than I do pockets to buy it, I am extremely thankful to have a personal liaison between the bottled liquid sanctuary that Sokolin Wine has acquired with me in mind, and my endless desire to acquire it, albeit slowly, from them.”
- Shaun
“Everything was perfect. I will definitely order from you all again. Thank you!”
– Jessica
“...I want to personally thank you for all the help that you give me AND my family when it comes to our wine purchasing.

You are truly an asset to Sokolin and wine lovers everywhere!”

– Ronald (A Client Who Recently Sold His Collection to Sokolin)
"Sokolin has a great selection of wines from all over the world. They have very knowledgeable staff, good delivery options and their website is one of the best I know. But what really distinguishes Sokolin is their customized service: ... a great help to me in finding the wines I like at a very good price."
– Fred
“I have been extremely pleased with the service and the products from Sokolin... Every purchase has been delivered on time, in perfect condition and at great prices. Thanks Sokolin for helping make my cellar what it is today!”

In particular, Matt is very customer-focused and willing to go out of his way to provide terrific, prompt service. He is a true pleasure to deal with and makes the storage and retrieval of wines simple and painless. Kudos to Matt for doing a great job.”
– Bruce
“If you’re looking for a merchant that has a vast selection of wines, and a wine expert to help guide you with your selections, then Sokolin is the place! I’ve developed an excellent relationship with my sales broker Nick Naddeo, and he’s always emailing me the newest arrivals & cellars before they make it to the email blast. He always responds in a timely fashion, and is very helpful with answering any wine questions that I may have. Jill in shipping is also exceptional at handling all the details of my deliveries, and making sure my wines arrive on time and in great condition. I’ve had nothing but a great experience with Sokolin.”
– Dave
“Sokolin Wines provides me a level of service that is unmatched in the industry. Christopher has a wealth of knowledge that astounds me. He always has the inside line on any wine that he has offered me. He has great patience in answering all my questions and following up with every detail. I would recommend them to anyone looking to develop a collection or just looking for a gift.”
– Tom
“I have been purchasing wines from Sokolin for more than 5 years and always have received superb service!”
– Alfredo
“Sokolin... great job of sending me sales information on the wines they/he know I like. I get very good updates on private cellar sales as well as other specials Sokolin is running specifically on the wines of interest to me.”
– Mark
“I have been a satisfied Sokolin customer for many years and have always been very impressed with the time Daron has taken to understand the wines I enjoy drinking and to target his offers accordingly, rather than simply clogging up my inbox with wines I don't like. Sokolin's access to hard-to-find wines in larger formats is second to none in my experience. The overall Sokolin experience has been very professional - wines have always in great condition and arriving in a timely manner.”
– Duncan
“Knowing that my phone calls, e-mails, text messages would be returned to me directly by Matt made dealing with Liquid Assets an enjoyable experience.....which is still ongoing. Entering into purchasing a large collection, something I had never done before, was a bit anxious for me. Turning a hobby into a business venture at my age was a nerve racking experience. However knowing my requests would be honored with the highest form of professionalism, as well as with such a friendly, honest, trustworthy manner made my life much easier.”
– David
“I have been working with Sokolin for several years now and could not be happier. I am a wine drinker, not a wine collector. True, I buy wines and save them for later years but with the intention of drinking them, not keeping them in a museum. What I like most about working with Chris is that I can trust and rely on his opinion. Over several years, we have talked about what I like and how palates evolve and change over time. He has been able to guide me to some fantastic wines at very reasonable prices. Anyone can buy a great wine at a high price. For me the trick is to find that same treasure at a reasonable price and that is what they do so well.”
– John
“My experience with Sokolin has been impeccable, from my first contact when looking for a cult Pouilly Fume to my last rare Brunello. The service from my knowledgeable wine concierge... is prompt, attentive and friendly. For me wine is a pastime that I expect to be fun and pleasant, Sokolin responds to all my expectations.”
- Alfonso
“I am not a collector and I may have more wine than I need, but I always look forward to Sokolin's e-mails because of the bargains they offer and the attention they provide... I also appreciate the ratings information, which is preferable to walking into a store and seeing a sign that says one of their employees likes a certain wine. Sokolin has been a godsend for a person who does not live in a metropolitan area.”

“I have been a client of Liquid Asset Storage for many years. I can honestly say that it is one of the best consumer experiences that I have. The ability to interact with Matt via email or phone is priceless and I can't conceive of my storage situation without Matt there to both guide me and assist me in my regular needs. He is the epitome of what one should expect in a client relationship-smart, courteous, timely and above all nice. Liquid Asset Storage should be proud to have a world class employee like Matt.”
– Harvey
"I've been working with Sokolin for over four years and the experience has been tremendous. In addition to providing an amazing selection, the prices are right, and the level of expertise is unmatched. The service team is great and my personal advisor, Jeff Gordley, goes out of his way to find me the types of wine I like. David Smydo has gotten on the phone with me himself when I'm looking for the right bottle of wine as a gift. I don't buy wine anywhere else."
– Joseph
“Sokolin is the best. I’m not a wine connoisseur so when I ask for their recommendations, they are right on target, no matter the price point. They have been my wine merchant for over 20 years, and I have never been disappointed.”
– Joel
“I do also want to say that my experience with Sokolin has been exceptional. Thank you very much for such great service and I do hope we continue to work together on future business.”

“Sokolin has been a great company for me to turn to for both my own cellar as well as for gifts for clients and friends. Whether for cases of easy drinking summer whites or hard to find 100 year old Madeira, ...the Sokolin team have been exceptionally resourceful and knowledgeable. Wine aficionados of all levels should take advantage of their expertise and professional service.”
– Kyle
“I'm so impressed with the level of service at Sokolin. I look forward to utilizing you for future rare wine purchases.”

"The people at Liquid Asset Storage are wonderful to deal with and I can’t imagine storing my wine anywhere else. Matt Nowakowski and his team have done a great job keeping track of various deliveries and always keep me up to date on what’s been received. And it’s never a hassle to get a few bottles sent to my apartment or a case picked up, even on a moment’s notice. The convenience is great, but more than that, Sokolin runs a very professional organization, which is so important when it comes to trusting your wine collection is being taken care of."
– Paul
“The service that Matt has provided at Liquid Asset Storage has been second-to-none. The consummate professional who is always accessible, Matt is always one step ahead of taking care and managing your collection. When buying and storing fine wine, two things matter: (1) provenance and the conditions in which your collection is stored and treated; (2) customer service. Matt has helped deliver both with his services at LAS. I had an incoming shipment of wine that was to be added to my collection, and Matt adroitly alerted me that the sender had sent a soiled product – within minutes Matt had pictures sent to me. Matt was looking out for me and managing my collection. Now I only deal with Sokolin and Liquid Asset Storage.”

"I have purchased wines from Sokolin for many years... If one is choosing one dealer to work with it is Sokolin and if one does, I don’t think you will need any other dealer."
– Sal
"Moving from wine drinker to novice wine investor can be an intimidating undertaking. ...the Sokolin team with their no-pressure, informative and educational approach have made this experience a pleasure. When you also consider Sokolin's buying power, I feel that I have found a valuable partner for my personal and investment wine purchases."
– Ralph
"I have found Sokolin to be one of the most efficient and knowledgeable companies that I do business with in any arena period, let alone as a counterpart for wine futures and everyday wine purchases... The Sokolin experience is second to none!"
– Brent
"My scope of interest is extremely narrow.....Burgundy ..... This affords me the opportunity to know these wines extremely well. As a result I can speak with authority. Without question, Sokolin is the best source. Most of all, I have great confidence in the provenance of their selections. Equally important is the excellent range and value that they offer. Finally, while not a significant buyer in other areas....I feel confident that an exceptional job is done as well elsewhere. Over the years I have accumulated a great collection......thanks to Sokolin."
– Joe
"It was I who noticed the first catalogue from Sokolin which got my immediate attention. It was so classy and elegant. The catalog is arranged in a stylishly simple form with enough written explanation concerning a particular wine to be informative and interesting. We both pay attention to your Robert Parker and Wine Spectator ratings as well as wines that read "a favorite of the Sokolin Family or a wine the Sokolin Family had for Thanksgiving." There have been many wines we have received from you that we would have never thought of purchasing on our own. Many have become great favorites. Certainly Washington, DC has great wine stores and we are totally mobile people. Nevertheless, we keep coming back to Sokolin which has become our premiere source for excellent wine. Your staff is amazing…We have never had a problem with service… I prefer catalogues rather than going to the Internet. I enjoy sitting down at the table and perusing a catalog with a cup of tea (or perhaps a glass of wine) rather than sitting at a computer…Sokolin has brought so much pleasure to our knowledge and enjoyment of wine. We look forward to many more years of excellent Sokolin wines…"

Sokolin's wine experts have been a valuable asset in my wine purchasing and really set them apart from other wine retailers. They are extremely knowledgeable and tailor their advice to your specific needs and tastes. Their advice and recommendations are very important in my wine purchasing. Whether I'm buying wine for enjoyment, entertaining or investment, Sokolin’s wine experts have been extremely helpful in that process. It's like having a personal sommelier!"

"When one is buying fine wine, three things matter: (1) provenance and quality of the product; (2) access to the best producers; (3) customer service. After working with other national and international wine retailers, I now only deal with Sokolin. Every bottle of wine that I have ordered has been delivered in pristine condition, with attention to the smallest detail - whether it be original release paper wrapping or original wooden cases. ...the one-stop for serious wine buyers."

– Yvonne
"Sokolin is the only place I order from at this point. They have everything I want, and can get anything I request, usually within days. After... retraining of my palate, I find myself unable to drink wine at anyone else's house, unless they are an avid collector. He's shown me the real world of wine."
