    One of the many comfy hang out spots at Athens Uncorked.

    The remodel last year was amazing. This is the most unique and elegant space in Athens. The food is wonderful, and there is a great selection of cocktails and beer as well as wine. If you are looking for a romantic date night - this is the spot. It's also a relaxing location to just hang out and catch up on emails, or meet up with a bunch of friends. The upstairs lounge area is great for large groups.

    We had a fantastic wine tasting with Nate. He's an outstanding host. Wonderful service & great experience. This is the kind of place you will expect to find in Greenwich Village. We had 2 flights and the artichoke dip. We enjoyed our wine outside. Next time we're in Athens, we're returning to Athens Uncorked.

    I was happy when I saw the signs for a wine bar. I wasn't expecting much because Athens is really a college town and this place isn't far from my daughters dorm. I must say I was surprised from the moment I walked in the door! The decor was gorgeous with different seating options (tables, couches and chairs, or the bar). We chose to sit a the bar because it's always fun getting the drink details from the person pouring. The menu had a variety of wines to choose from and, as we hoped, the bar tender was quite knowledgable. We chose to make our own flights and we were happy with about four of our 6 choices. The most interesting was the Girl Scout cookie flight that was actually paired with Girl Scout cookie! My favorite was the Pinot Grigio paired with the lemon cookie. A small menu of assorted cheeses, baguettes and olive oil, olives and other provisions are also available.

    This is the main wine part of the bar.  The ambiance is amazing and the bartenders are excellent!!!

    They've recently undergone a massive renovation. The whole inside is new. They've expanded the kitchen to be able to offer more substantial food and appetizer selections. The wine selection is still the best in town by far. And now they have a complete beer bar with several area microbrews on tap and more common beers in bottles. Definitely something for everybody now, so don't be afraid to bring guests who aren't wine huge wine fans. Great for dates, small parties, and work events. We love the place!

    Lovely, romantic place. Small, limited menu, but very tasty. Just enough to complement the great wine choices. Highly recommended.

    I have been to this winery many times for outdoor events and photoshoots in their outdoor area but…read moreonly got a chance to check out the inside and try their wine this past weekend at a Fitness event that was held there! First off the space is incredibly spacious to host an event especially being able to social distance properly. They also have a small upstairs area as well. The bar itself is a bit on the smaller side. The bartenders were extremely helpful with helping me find a drink I would like out of their specials. They have a house sangria which was so good! I was looking for something with a little less sweetness so they helped me pair the sangria with one of their other reds. They did have pizza which I ordered a margarita one and it wasn't bad though I wish it had a few more toppings. And I do wish they had a few other food options to have with the wine.

    This is it folks, a really real, Honest-to-God winery here smack dab in the middle of Columbus!…read more Grapes come in from California, they get crushed on site and immediately processed, casked/barreled. The urgency of the process preserves the integrity of the grapes therefore vastly improving the quality of the wine. What I love it that this is about as holistic wine as it gets. Nothing is added to the process: no nitrates, no potassium, no oak flavorings, no "artificial flavor" additions. You get the grape gone wild and that's about it. And it's completely WONDERFUL. I've been trying to develop my palate for several years now. (And that's been quite the fun journey, lol!) I know what I don't like and can verbalize it quite well. I recently sampled a flight of three wines (and then bought an entire bottle to consume with friends while there with an AMAZING cheese plate-all artisan here, kids.) Tasting in this order: Trovato, Adamo & Trouve (all 11.5% abv) All three reds were very lovely, with a nice full-mouth feel, good structure and a lingering but not heavy finish. The Trovato had a very lush bouquet, and OK legs. It's an easy drinking wine especially in the summer. The Adamo was my friends' favorite - it's nicely complex and bolder on the palate. My and the S.O.'s favorite is the Trouve (true-veh). It's a wine that really opens up in the glass - the owner suggested we linger over it as it goes on its own journey from corking to close. This was true and quite exciting to experience. At corking, it opens bright, after breathing it matures to more mellow notes and nuances...and at the bottom of a couple glasses it's just damn good! It's truly quite nice on the finish, not tannic but rich and lingering. You can detect notes of the barrel from the middle to the end and can appreciate the different aspects that emerge. Try this, it's fun! The Trouve is a wine made to be paired with food - this too brings whole new elements to the experience (unlike some wines that leave me lacking despite the claims). The antipasto plates are generous, the cheeses are the perfect compliment to the wines created by Via Vecchia. How does one make a winery in the middle of a brewery district, in a 150 year old or so building that has previously housed dance clubs and more atrocities? That's a good question. You do it by hand, with your own talent and tears. The three guys that own this place have poured their heart into it-read their renovation progress on their blog linked to their website. http://viavecchia.blogspot.com/ - They like to talk, and can teach you many things while entertaining all the while. The space is lovely with exposed brick, graceful arches and nooks and crannies that make wine tasting more intimate for you and your friends. Hand-Numbered Bottles are priced at $25 and can be signed by the makers upon request **process notation as taken from website** "We believe that "a well treated wine is an untreated wine." Our wines receive no added chemicals, no added lab-created yeasts or sugars, no added colorings, enzymes or preservatives, and only minimal added sulfites. For filtration of wine, we rely on sedimentation and the Moon."
