I live in Fayetteville, NC and purchase the majority of my wine from Carolina Wine Company in Raleigh (they have a website). I also have visited Total Wine and More and The Wine Merchant in Raleigh and Bob's Wine Shop and Grapes and Hops in Fayetteville. Have also ordered some wines directly from the winery in Oregon or California and when in DC visit Macarthur's Beverages (also known as Bassin's) and Calvert & Woodley Wine Shop. Do you have Harris Teeter grocery stores in Greenville? They have a fairly good selection of wines for a grocery store.

My frustrating wine experience in Greenville, SC:
when Carolina Panthers first started in the NFL they played two (?) seasons in the Clemson Stadium before their stadium was finished in Charlotte. I went to one of the games (San Francisco with Steve Young quarterbacking). I didn't have much luck finding a hotel room in Clemson so stayed Saturday and Sunday nights in Greenville. Sunday after the game I go to an Italian restaurant in Greenville and ask for a glass of Chianti with dinner. The waitress says in a snippety way "We don't serve wine on Sunday" like I was a huge sinner for even suggesting it. Haven't they read about Jesus turning water into wine at a wedding celebration? (Does Greenville still have the no wine on Sunday rule? We have a prohibition here before 1200 noon at restaurants, and grocery stores can't sell beer or wine, etc. until after noon Sunday)
