A lovely setting for a fun evening. The wine was top notch, the decor of this new wine bar is…read moremodern, clean and comfortable. A long table, plush bench seating with small tables, high top tables, comfy chairs with tables, and a bar area make up the varied seating options. There was a piano player that was excellent, played lots of songs we knew and some beautiful tunes we hadn't heard before. Not too loud or too soft. The sound was very good, considering this is a long narrow building with hard surfaces. The service was excellent, the staff was friendly, smiling, efficient. We ordered a veggie and hummus platter and a charcuterie plate with our wine. Both were okay, about what you'd expect. The bathrooms were clean and spacious. We will definitely come back again, the place was hopping and it's really fun to have a new wine bar in downtown Owatonna!

They offer free coffee from the Nespresso machine which is a nice touch. They have their own wine shop next door that is kind of expensive. Buying a bottle in the winery and corking it to go is a more affordable option if you plan to drink it right away.

Nice ambience. Shares an outdoor courtyard with 10,000 Drops craft distillery. Night we came there was a wood fired, pizza often on a trailer. Food looked quite good. We brought in food from 1st Thai as we didn't know if food would be easily accessible nearby. Pints and Corks svld better publicize the food situation and push a bunch of photos to Facebook, Yelp, etc. They must be missing a lot of customers due to the lack of information.

The rotating menu was always the best part -- new wines, seasonal snacks, and just enough change to keep things interesting without ruining what works. Every visit felt like a little surprise, but never in a "what happened to my favorite thing?" kind of way. The cozy vibe was unbeatable. Dim lights, warm atmosphere, and live entertainment that somehow made me feel like I was in a movie scene about a person who has their life together. (Spoiler: I do not. But I felt like I did when I was here.) I genuinely hope it survived COVID, staffing shortages, economy chaos, and whatever plot twists 2020-present through at local businesses. Please still be the same. Please still have the vibe. Please still have the best wines I never thought to try. If I ever come back to town, I'm heading straight there -- no questions asked. Five stars forever. Try them out if you're in uptown!

The service was very good even though it only looked like 3 people were working - they were very busy but did not show it They have an extensive wine list which is nice and decent price range from $12 upwards. The Rosè I had was pretty good and the Cab Sauv my date had was good too! The music was pretty loud - only on weekends I think , but when the crowds dispersed it felt more like an intimate wine bar- so I imagine during the week this would be a great place to meet up with friends and family. Did not get to try any food as we had just come from dinner but they did have some amazing smelling bread boards I would be willing to try!

The space itself is beautiful and thoughtfully designed with lots of little seating areas that make it feel intimate but still social. Service is great too.
