My recent visit to West Concord Liquor's Grand Wine Tasting has left me feeling extremely uncomfortable and unwelcome in the store. The owner of the store seems to enjoy "teasing/bullying me into purchasing something whenever I visit the wine tastings and, up until very recently have more or less taken it in stride, but I still feel some degree of pressure. Indeed, I purchased a $20 bottle of rum (not my favorite) at a tasting last year as I felt pressured to do so. I visited the wine tasting last weekend alone as my husband was home doing work and I have no friends to join me. As I was visiting the various stations, the owner(no surprise) approached me and said that he hoped I was going to buy something and that he had his"eye on me". Again I took it in stride, but texted my husband just the same to come over soon so that we could purchase something as I felt some degree of pressure. I visited all of the stations only ONCE while I waited for my husband and ONLY drank white wine selections. After visiting all of the stations and still no sign of my husband, I waited outside of the store for him as I did not feel free to leave until I purchased something. After a while, my husband finally showed up and when I walked back in with him to show him the wines I liked and to possibly have another one or two tastings to confirm, the owner approached me and asked me to turn in my glass. I was shocked and embarrassed! I was neither inebriated nor causing a disturbance. I had mostly been keeping to myself, waiting for my husband and having polite conversation with one or two acquaintances that I saw there. However, the owner treated me like a garden variety alcoholic. I felt I was in a no- win situation that afternoon. If I left the store without buying something, I would have been reprimanded, but when I waited around for my husband so that we could buy something, I was treated like an individual who had a problem with alcohol. I want to make it perfectly clear that I do NOT and NEVER have had a drinking problem, but that day the owner treated me like an alcoholic and thus, I am now too embarrassed and ashamed to enter the store.
