Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board Celebrates Grand Reopening of Expanded Fine Wine & Good Spirits in Verona, Allegheny County

​Verona - The Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board (PLCB) today welcomed local officials and the public to the grand reopening of an expanded Fine Wine & Good Spirits (FW&GS) at River Town Shops, 90 Allegheny River Blvd., Verona, Allegheny County.

This FW&GS closed for renovations on Sunday, May 19. Now with more than 3,000 square feet of retail space - almost double the store's previous configuration - it features more than 1,750 wines and spirits. The store also carries the popular Chairman's Selection® products, which are hand-selected, highly rated wines available at significant discounts from nationally quoted prices.

To celebrate the grand reopening, all in-store wines, spirits, and accessories were 10% off during regular business hours on Thursday, Nov. 21.

This FW&GS offers a warm, welcoming atmosphere for consumers to browse the extensive selection. The store has a "Made in Pennsylvania" section to highlight wines and spirits produced in the commonwealth. Also, this store features Pennsylvania Lottery ticket sales.

The Verona FW&GS will be open from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM Monday through Saturday and from 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM Sunday. The store phone number is 412.274.5465. To find additional store locations and hours, visit FWGS.com.

The PLCB also works to reduce and prevent dangerous and underage drinking through partnerships with schools, community groups, and licensees. Taxes and store profits - totaling nearly $20.3 billion since the agency's inception - are returned to Pennsylvania's General Fund, which finances Pennsylvania's schools, health and human services programs, law enforcement, and public safety initiatives, among other important public services.
