  I just turned 21 in November so I'm super interested in trying different wines, since everything is so new to me. I went to Russo's expecting to find different wines and maybe some different foods to try. The whole time I was in the wine aisle with my dad there was a worker that was watching us the whole time. The worker didn't greet us or anything just watched us. It made me think they thought that we were going to steal something. Then when I got to the checkout to buy two small bottles of wine, I gave the cashier my state ID, she immediately called the manager over. They didn't even check my ID to make sure I was 21 or anything and said that they couldn't sell to me because my ID was in vertical format and that I should go get that changed. I have been to several bars and I've bought alcohol at other stores and no one has refused to sell to me because I had a vertical ID. After refusing to sell to me, they still sold the items I wanted to buy to my father. I'm really disappointed in this place because I was really excited to find a nice place to shop for wines. I definitely won't be going back.
