Total Wine & More may be opening its first store in Alexandria, according to a report out this week by Washington Business Journal.
The location? Alexandria’s Potomac Yard Center.
'WBJ reports that the wine store might take over spaces formerly occupied by Pier 1 Imports and Thomasville Furniture Store of Alexandria. The combined 18,000 square feet are adjacent to the vacant Shoppers store.
Currently, the closest Total Wine & More store is at 6240 Little River Turnpike in Lincolnia. There are more stores located throughout Northern Virginia including in Ballston, McLean, Springfield, Fairfax City, Reston, Sterling and Chantilly.
Total Wine & More bills itself as America's Wine Superstore®, the country‘s largest independent retailer of fine wine. The Bethesda-based company got its start in 1991 when brothers David and Robert Trone opened a small store in Delaware. Today, the company operates 214 stores across 26 states and continues to grow.
The typical Total Wine & More store carries more than 8,000 different wines from every wine-producing region in the world. The typical Total Wine & More also carries more than 2,500 beers, from America's most popular brands to hard-to-find microbrews and imports, and more than 3,000 different spirits in every style and price range.
Total Wine & More employs more than 4,000 dedicated men and women, including 600 wine service team members and 50 wine experts, called the "Total Wine Professionals."
