I went for a summer yoga class but left white much more than alignment!…read more First, let's start with yoga class... I ended up being the only one who signed up for that afternoon so I got a one on one session with the instructor. We did the class in the vineyard on a beautiful summer day! The instructor played music and was accommodating to my specific needs and answered all my questions! After the class I was so hot from being in the sun I went straight into the winery which had just opened! With the class I got a free glass of wine so I got to choose from several options. I decided to also do a wine flight because the wine was so good and I still needed to cool down. The staff inside also suggested that I try the pizza next door so of course I did! You can order online and then you get a text when it's ready. Once it was ready I took my flight outside to a table and then grabbed my pizza from next door. The pizza was great and so was the wine! I definitely recommend this place for a chill date, or even a gathering with friends.

ADORED this winery (and we only experienced the inside)! We had never been here before and decided…read moreto check it out because they were advertising bottomless mimosas all day. We went Sunday afternoon in the middle of winter, so we didn't get to explore the Barn or what they had to offer outside, but we were perfectly happy inside. It's a small bar with a home-y vibe, games, and some cute merch (definitely bought the softest sherpa sweater). The bartender was so sweet and let us know that, even though it wasn't on the menu, we could do a mimosa flight! If you're in the area it's worth checking out!

The employees were extremely nice and the place is cute. Parking is minimal and when we arrived, we…read morehad to park in the grass. I'm not a wine drinker, but I did partake in the wine tasting. The wine tasting is $6 and you taste 6 different wines. They start off with two White, then one pink, and then three red wines. There was also a "bonus" wine you get and it's a hot version. I can't say much else, since I don't usually choose to drink wine. The wine on the taste test ranged from $17-$20 a bottle. They also give a free bottle if you buy four of them. On the side you can taste the different types of malt vinegar and olive oils they have. This was by far a far more interesting thing to me. There was a flavor "Blackberry Ginger" that just rocked my socks off. I didn't buy a bottle, but I should have.

There were several others that also thought that was a great place to enjoy wine and conversation. I chose the red wine flight and my friend did a custom flight. I thought all the wines were delicious, deep red color, robust tastes. We also munched on a cheese tray. It was a good amount for two people. Cheese, fruit, nuts, and crackers created nice combos of flavors and textures. Service was excellent. It was a great place to relax and regenerate after a long bike ride.

We tried a few different flights of wine and flat breads and enjoyed the beautiful view of the vineyard. The place is truly breathtaking, and at the time, they had live music playing outside. Jenna made some very good recommendations and made sure we had everything we needed. ::Caution:: I still gave this place 5 stars because this has nothing to do with the service or the quality of the food or location, but we were picturing a nice, calm brunch, sipping on wine, not a Chuck E Cheese experience. Apparently, we were upgraded to the deluxe Chuck E Cheese package and were seated around lots of parents who decided to bring their young kids to a vineyard. The kids were running wild around tables and crying and screaming. Not one parent corrected their kids' behavior and just let them run around like free-range chickens. There were also people complaining that there were no non alcoholic drinks that they wanted at a vineyard. When I went inside there seemed to be no kids indoors. While another group could not control their kids and kept knocking things off the table, including glasses of wine. No one seemed to mind outdoors because most of the people had young kids, so be warned that this may be a possibility, so research your days before you go. Overall, if you remove the kids running wild and crying, the service was fantastic, the wine was good, lots of parking, the ambiance was incredible, and the food was good.

We each got a different pizza (fig, pesto, hot honey) and a salad. 2 were ordered gluten free but they made all 3 gluten free - so I cannot speak to how the regular crust is unfortunately which I was looking forward too. The flavors were all great and would order all again.

It was a very warm day so thankful for the numerous umbrellas and covered patio. Directions are not clear when entering the food and drink area. The drink area had a modest line but nowhere to see a menu. They have a large digital screen menu but it is not in view when waiting to place your order. There was only one person working the cash register which was stressful for her. The drinks came out quick!! Food prices are high for what you get so we opted to not order from the menu. My husband went in the wine shop to grab a couple bags of chips and he stood there forever with no one offering assistance. Many staff walked right by him, looked at him and again no assistance. He was gone from the table for 20 minutes to simply buy a bag of chips. They had live music on the patio which was so nice but the volume was so loud, we finally understood why everyone was seated at the back of the patio. Sovereign has a large array of seating and special event areas. Covered cabanas, dining rooms and gorgeous grounds to walk. This place simply needs some operational updates and it would receive a 5 star rating!!

We catered through the winery for the rehearsal dinner and they knocked it out of the park! We had wonderful pizza, salad, and a variety of desserts. Guests raved about the food! Also, their wine and cider was also a hit - as expected! Now moving to my wedding. Overall, WONDERFUL experience. To start, the winery is reasonably priced. The staff is wonderful - shoutout to Jillian, Alexis and our bartender - they took care of all setup and tear down. They were flexible with table arrangements and allow you to truly make the day your own. There is a great, spacious room for the bridal party to get ready upstairs as well! Our guests continue to comment on how lovely the outdoor space and indoor space is at Crow River Winery. There was ample space for our guests to relax inside or outside and space for the kiddos to run around and get some energy out. I have no complaints or suggestions for improvements. Our day was absolutely stress free and perfect. I would choose Crow River Winery over and over as a wedding venue - as well as a great place to stop by for a nice evening on the patio with great wine, cider, or beer AND food. Thank you Crow River Winery for helping create my dream wedding!
