Dedalus Wine Shop, Market & Bakery

We went for wine and cheese. The experience was awesome. The staff not only knew the characteristics of each wine and cheese; but also they love what the do and gave us the ultimate sense of a homey environment. Absolutely amazing experience.

I came here at the recommendation of a friend. When I arrived I was promptly greeted and in less than five minutes I had been given a tasting spoon of a stunning goat cheese and a tasting of rosé.

I was guided adeptly along the process of finding a bright wine to partner with the unseasonably warm weather that I could enjoy after a full day of adventures hiking and biking. Once I’d settled on a bottle of white for myself I sought guidance on a bottle for a friend to give a a gift. I decided I’d like to select a bottle from a women-owned winery or female vintner. Not only were they able to give my a handful of options, there was a local Vermont winery they had several varieties from. I opted to gift a bottle of (as my friend later called it) “pink bubbles.”

The breads looked too good not to get so I also picked up a stunning rosemary focaccia to accompany the wine.

I will absolutely be back when I’m in town. The staff was so exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable and gave options on style and price while not being overwhelming. The only similar wine and cheese shopping experience I’ve had is at Zingerman’s in Ann Arbor, Michigan. This was like a really quaint and mellow Vermont equivalent.

Weird experience here. The woman who helped us pick out some wine was very helpful and attentive. We spent $120 on 2 bottles of wine. When we tried to get some cheese and meat for a small charcuterie the woman behind the cheese case was kind of rude. Before we even spoke she said that they require 48hr notice for a cheese board, but offered nothing else. We just wanted a few cheeses and meats in small portions for the 2 of us. Both of the people behind the cheese case were pretty much just standing around, so I’m not sure why they wouldn’t have been able to just accommodate that. If your entire business is wine and cheese, I’m not sure why you wouldn’t be able to provide those two things to a walk in. At this price point, I would expect better customer service. Disappointing experience.

Zach was beyond hospital and knowledgeable! Cool zenned out wine bar. They have a handicapped capable entrance, great indoor and outdoor seating, and even a temperature/humidity controlled wine cellar. The old parking lot has been totally repaved and this place is absolutely fabulous!

Great choice for some gourmet takeaway food. Truly restaurant quality main courses for heating at home. Ideal if you'd like a nice meal but don't want to venture out and don't fancy the usual ski resort fare of burger/pizza etc. Everything seemed freshly made. I didn't sample cheese and wine but those also looked good.

Excellent selection and very knowledgeable staff!! Love the new Stowe location of Dedalus!

Huge selection of imported cheese. Very nice staff that took a lot of time educating us and giving us some back round on the production of some of the cheese. Definitely worth stopping in.

They've a great wine collection. The place is very cute. The staff were very knowledgeable about their wines and cheeses.

The staff is exceptional, very patient with us uncultured swine. Amazing selection. Also the bakery has some pretty great things for breakfast. Worth checking out for certain.
