Does anyone have any experience with this place? Good selection of Brunello but can’t find a single thing about this place. Appears to be online only. Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone know anything about this store? Let’s help Ed out please!
I ordered from them back in the fall, when they had the '14 Monfortino a few months before U.S. release. They ship the wines from Italy, so it took 2-3 weeks from order to delivery. But as long as you are OK with the timing, all seemed great otherwise.
A link would help, when I Google ‘wines of kings’ I get a bunch of stuff.
Ed did you pull the trigger? Was considering them myself. Prices might be too good to be true. Website is Winesofkings.com - wine searcher lists them as a 5-star trusted wine store but I can’t find a single review or mention of them other than Rob above.
Had some Brunello with Ed last night. I’ll let him know to get back to you!
Stephen, I couldn’t pull the trigger. The prices were unreal, I reached out and asked if they had what I wanted in stock, which they said they did. I then checked with a wine shop in Montalcino where I usually buy and they said the bottles were not yet even released. I assume it’s fine but got cold feet and bailed. Would love to hear other’s experience.
Thanks for the quick response guys! Yea I’m gonna hold off as well. I decided to google the address they list. And it looks super shady in the middle of nowhere outside Wilmington DE. No signage at all and there doesn’t even appear to actually be a Sunset Lake RD on the map - it just appears on the building itself. Plus there are 2 other businesses that share the same address and one of those 2, Mobulous—Mobile App development has a glaring 1-star review alleging fraud and that the owner is using this address for internet scams.

bump - has anyone here ordered/received from them yet?
Hi,
I came across this forum after I was doing research on Wines of Kings. Do not buy from them. It is a total scam! We purchased 2 bottles of Krug and a case of Dellamotte. The Delamotte was delivered during the summer and left on our porch in TX. When we tasted the Delamotte, it was undrinkable but equated that to being left on our porch by FedEx. We just opened one of the bottles of Krug at Christmas and it was also undrinkable! Not even the same color as Krug. I plan on reporting them. Has anyone else ordered from them?
I bought from them in 2021. Funny enough, I could not recall why I felt like the experience was mixed and just dug up an old email. I got my delivery in early July on a very hot day. I emailed them sharing my concern- to their credit, I got a fairly decent response that the wine was temp controlled for all of the journey until the end and that they generally do not ship in July/August. Again- not sure I was thrilled with the surprise delivery/hot temps but wines seem fine since I got them.
