Rare Clay Clayton Posted August 22, 2014 #5 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Since you will likely be driving I-45 to Galveston, you might want to think about stopping at the Specs in downtown(actually Midtown) Houston. They have a HUGE selection (they make total wine look like a convenience store). Just checked and they are open until 10am-9pm, Monday through Saturday. Here is their address: STORE #00 2410 Smith Street, Houston TX 713-526-8787 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bethco Posted August 24, 2014 #6 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Be sure to buy it on Saturday. No beer, wine or liquor sold before noon on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunquest76 Posted August 27, 2014 #9 Share Posted August 27, 2014 We bought out wine at the Calgary Airport when departing for a cruise out of Miami. Sold in tetrapacks. Not the greatest quality, but very convenient :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire53 Posted September 4, 2014 #10 Share Posted September 4, 2014 You can even get it at Walmart...;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bptex Posted September 4, 2014 #11 Share Posted September 4, 2014 I bought my wine at Walgreens in Galveston the night before. As mentioned Specs in Houston will blow away anything in Galveston but at least there are some options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galveston Cruiser Posted September 4, 2014 #12 Share Posted September 4, 2014 There is a Spec's in Galveston on 61st. A small version of the one on Smith in Houston but a good selection of wines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As mentioned Specs in Houston will blow away anything in Galveston but at least there are some options. Yes Spec's original main store in Houston is an adventure. Specs in Galveston though is Spec's of Houston and is just a very large liquor but with a wide variety of domestic and world fine wines. We are very fortunate to have it here for the selections. You would not be dissapointed with Specs or Kroger or Walgreens depending on your tastes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
