One does not become a sommelier overnight. At Papa Joe's Gourmet, we have been proud to have one of the finest sommeliers in the country in house since 1996. Trained in the famous vineyards of France and Germany, Mr. William Schwab brings years of experience and an unquestioned knowledge of all wines to the service of customers at Papa Joe's Gourmet. Mr. Schwab is happy to provide individualized consultations with customers of all needs. Whether you're looking for a simple bottle of wine for a humble occasion, a rare wine for a special event, or simply some advice about which wine is best suited for your unique situation, Mr. Schwab and our staff will ask you the right questions: What's for dinner? What's the nature of the event or meal? How much are you looking to spend? Simply put, our goal is to put you into a wine that will maximize your pleasure within your budget. Our incredibly large selection allows us to guarantee that we will do just that. We carry more than 28,000 varieties of wine - no one else in the state of Michigan can even claim a selection of half that number. Dessert wines, fortified wines, sherries, red wines, white wines, champagnes and more are available for purchase. Moreover, we carry wines from all corners of the globe, including the famous vineyards of countries like Italy, Russia, France, New Zealand, Argentina, Chile, Lebanon and Hungary, just to name a few. But the wine services at Papa Joe's Gourmet do not end with our amazing selection. Mr. Schwab's entire catalog of knowledge is at your disposal. Need your wine cellar explained and assessed? We can do that. Need some help organizing a wine tasting party? We can do that. Have a label of an obscure bottle of wine that you want explained or located? We can do that, too. Essentially, if it has to do with wine, Mr. Schwab and Papa Joe's Gourmet can help you make the best decision for what suits you best.
