Hello, neighbor.
Welcome to
Putnam
A neighborhood wine and spirits shop where you're known by name — not by your order number.
A corner of Carmel
where every bottle
has a story.
Putnam Wines And Spirits has been a quiet cornerstone of the Carmel community for as long as anyone can remember. We're not a big-box store with fluorescent lights and aisles that stretch for miles — we're the place where the owner knows your name, remembers what you liked last Thanksgiving, and will honestly tell you if a bottle isn't worth the price.
Our shelves are stocked the way we'd stock them at home: with wines from small producers who actually care about their craft, spirits that make a proper cocktail, and a beer selection that runs the gamut from local craft to international imports. If it's something we wouldn't pour for our own table, we don't stock it.

Something for

From a quiet Friday evening to a holiday gathering, we've got the bottle you're looking for — and a few you didn't know you needed.
Red Wines
Bordeaux, Napa, Barolo, and the hidden gems your server wishes you knew about.
White Wines
Crisp, buttery, or somewhere in between — there's a white for every mood and meal.
Spirits
Whiskey, vodka, gin, rum — from everyday essentials to the bottle you save for milestones.
Sparkling
Champagne, Prosecco, Cava — because some nights call for bubbles.
Craft Beer
Local brews, international imports, stouts, IPAs, and everything in between.
Gifts & Occasions
Weddings, birthdays, host gifts — we'll help you put together something memorable.
The kind of shop
that doesn't come
around often
Personal Attention
You'll be greeted by name, and we'll actually listen to what you're in the mood for — not just push the most expensive bottle on the shelf.
Expert Guidance
Our team knows their stuff — from pairing a wine with your Sunday roast to finding the right whiskey for your father's 60th birthday.
Curated Selection
We hand-pick everything that goes on our shelves. No filler, no filler products — just bottles we'd be proud to serve at our own table.
Right Here in Carmel
Easy to find off Route 6, easy to park, and always a welcoming stop on your way home. We're your neighborhood shop — not a destination you have to plan a whole trip for.
Fair & Transparent
Competitive prices, no markup games, and no pressure to buy more than you need. We'd rather you come back next week than overspend today.
Occasion Specialists
Wedding wine, anniversary gifts, corporate hampers, holiday trays — we make the special moments a little easier to pull together.
