Owner, Lil Sickles, has over 25 years experience purchasing, selling and teaching people about wine. She says, “So many friends tell me how intimidated they are when they shop for wine, but wine should be fun!” Each wine has been carefully curated to bring you the best bottle for your buck at every price point, so you can grab an every day delight or treat yourself to something special.

Along with wines from around the world, there’s a great selection of craft beer and locally made non-alcoholic beverages as well as goods made from BI-POC, LGBTQ and local artists and craftspeople.

After being the recipient of incredible generosity during cancer treatment in 2019 and 2021, Sickles knew that when she opened her store she wanted to pay it forward in some way. She is an Oneida Indian, People of the Standing Stone, and has made it an important part of her business mission to donate a portion of wine sales to a different Indigenous cause each month.

Standing Stone Wines is thrilled to be a member of the amazing Vermont Food and Beverage community as well as the wonderful diverse city of Winooski, VT.
