About Us

Our Story

Ellen’s Wines & Spirits started from a passion to share the joy of exceptional wines and spirits with the Queens community and beyond. Inspired by global exploration of vineyards and distilleries, we believe every bottle tells a unique story of its origin and craftsmanship. We focus on offering organic and biodynamic products that respect the environment and support small producers, including minority artisans. From a small boutique, we’ve grown into a trusted online retailer, serving casual wine lovers and collectors alike, fostering discovery and appreciation of fine beverages in every purchase.

What We Offer

Our curated selection at Ellen’s Wines & Spirits is designed to cater to every palate and preference, ensuring a diverse range of options that embrace both tradition and innovation. Each product we carry has been thoughtfully selected to offer quality, authenticity, and value, reflecting the unique characteristics of its origin and production.

Wines:

Our wine portfolio includes classic varietals like Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Sauvignon Blanc alongside more adventurous and regional specialties such as Montepulciano, Malbec, and Riesling. We emphasize organic and biodynamic vineyards, which produce grapes grown in balanced ecosystems that enhance the wine's complexity and depth.

Spirits:

Beyond wine, we offer an impressive range of premium spirits including whiskey, bourbon, gin, tequila, vodka, rum, and artisanal liqueurs. Our whiskey selection covers styles from smoky Islay Scotches to smooth Kentuckian bourbons, appealing to novices and aficionados alike.

Specialty and Craft Products:

Recognizing the growing interest in craft and small-batch products, we feature limited-run offerings and collaborations that showcase the skill and creativity of emerging producers. Many of these selections are organic, minority-produced, or champion female winemakers and distillers.

Customer convenience is paramount; our efficient delivery system covers Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan, and select wider areas, with clear policies and reliable timing. Gift wrapping and special packaging options make holiday or corporate gifting effortless and elegant.
