"A Twin Cities bar that was nominated in the new Outstanding Wine and Other Beverages Program category but did not win the award." - Emily Venezky
"A neighborhood spot recognized as a finalist for a notable wine program." - Katherine Lawless
"Named a finalist for Outstanding Wine and Other Beverages Program and representing Minneapolis in a national category, this spot is described as the city's only dedicated natural wine bar." - Emily Venezky
"An adventurous wine bar with a Basque-inspired small-plates focus and an offbeat presentation of wine—there’s no printed list; instead a glass case of bottles sets the tone for explorative pairings and conversation." - AFAR
"Bar Brava’s natural wine list infuses the Minneapolis wine scene with a bit of delightful funk. With a dedication to organically farmed, unfiltered, wild-yeasted, and unfined wine, this space is truly one-of-a-kind. Modern finishes like subway tile and Edison bulbs round out the Brava aesthetic, and small plates like pan con tomate and orange wine roast pork make for excellent pairings." - Justine Jones
