Join the incredible hunt to find Trader Joe’s wine shops in each state

Trader Joe's wine shop showing wines

Just what I’ve been looking for!

 

A hunt? Why?

Trader Joe’s wine shops aren’t everywhere.

They aren’t? Well, where are they?

Excellent question!

Let’s talk about it.

I am a huge fan of Trader Joe’s Wines. The value to price is incredible!!

I have written other blog posts about Trader’s Joe’s wines. Check out the origin stories so to speak:

For Why you should be in love with Trader Joe’s wines, click here.

For Three more insanely good Trader Joe’s wines Red Blend edition, click here.

And then there is my latest post:

I also really like a lot of their food items. I have a wine blog, though. Not a food blog. I’m going to stay in my wine lane.

Back to the hunt

If you are in California, you will have no idea why I would have to hunt for Trader Joe’s Wines. They have 188 (if I counted correctly)Trader Joe’s stores that all sell wine. They are very fortunate.

Then there are those states that have no Trader Joe’s at all. None. Zilch. Zero. I am so sorry. That certainly puts my no wine store near me complaining in perspective.

I am on this wine hunt for all those who don’t know where to find Trader Joe’s wines near them! I do this for you!

Oh yeah. For me too.

The United States has had a love/ hate relationship with alcohol since the early days of our history.

Today, the sale of alcohol has hundreds and hundreds of laws surrounding it. Each state has different rules on buying, selling, and shipping it. Sometimes it is more local than that. There are still some towns that choose to go dry entirely.

What follows is a state by state guide of where to find (or not find) Trader Joe’s wine shops. Because I am insanely helpful, I provide a link to Trader Joe’s directory for each state. Just click on the state name. That way you can check hours and directions. Sometimes the hours are different for the wine store and the food store.

Scroll on down to find your area.

Until they open one near me, I will continue to look for stores wherever I travel BY CAR. Oh, and the location will need parking. When I find Trader Joe’s wine, I stock up.

I need a car because: Do not even get me started on the rules for shipping alcohol between states!

Did you read my post Two Insanely good Trader Joe’s wines and who recommended them? If not, definitely click here.

All wines at Trader Joe’s are not equally good, or offer equally good value. That is when you try to get good advice. This is one of the reasons why you read my blog.

Happy hunting for wine!
