Carboy Winery Denver

A First Look at the Massive Winery and Restaurant That Just Replaced Govnr’s Park | Eater Denver

"Founded in Littleton in 2014 by a group of Colorado winemakers and restaurateurs intent on using grapes from smaller growers nationwide to produce wine in an urban setting, this new 11,000-square-foot location combines production and hospitality with a tap room, tasting room, retail shop and on-site winemaking (including sparkling wines that are riddled downstairs). The tap room—entered from the corner of Logan Street and 7th Avenue and located in a former dry cleaner next to the old Govnr’s Park site—serves a regularly expanding range of wines on tap alongside charcuterie and cheese boards, bruschetta, ceviche and crème brûlée; the adjacent tasting bar offers five-wine flights for $12 (fee waived with a bottle purchase). On-site bottlings will include varietals such as Cabernet Franc and the BlanCo. White Blend (made from Palisade fruit), and the operation’s three wineries will crush roughly 130 tons of Colorado grapes this year while also sourcing fruit from California, Washington and Oregon. The facility emphasizes sustainability—using large wine kegs that hold the equivalent of about 26.5 bottles and selling refillable carboys—and keeps distinct hours for the tap room and tasting room that run from early afternoon into the evening." - Paul Albani-Burgio

A Littleton Winery Is Taking Over Govnr’s Park Tavern | Eater Denver

"A Littleton-based winery expanding into Denver by taking over the Logan Street space at 7th Avenue and Logan Street and planning to open a wine bar and restaurant by late summer. The concept will emphasize food designed to be paired with wine and will include multiple event rooms, a tasting bar, a retail wine shop, and an outdoor patio. The operation is growing—adding another winery and tasting room in Breckenridge and aiming to produce up to 72,000 bottles of Colorado wine this year—sourcing grapes, juice, and wine from Colorado and beyond for blending. The owners also run taverns in Denver and Littleton, and they recently partnered with former NFL player and reality-TV personality Colton Underwood to create 65 Roses Rosé, with proceeds benefiting cystic fibrosis research through his Legacy Foundation." - Josie Sexton
