About Revel Urban Winery / Revel OTR
Revel Urban Winery / Revel OTR is an urban winery in Over-the-Rhine, Cincinnati. It opened in 2016 and pours handcrafted wines at a tasting room with a full bar. The winery says it has been named Best Local Winery by CityBeat nine years running.
Tuesday to Thursday, Revel runs as a wine bar. The room is unpretentious, and you can order flights, glasses or bottles. From Friday to Sunday it turns into a party, with jazz nights, live music and day parties.
The food is small and made for sharing. A rotating cheese and charcuterie board comes with marinated olives, warm nuts, and hummus with flatbread. Ask your server what is on the board that night.
The space has two floors. Private events run from a second-floor party to a full buyout. The winery says its wines have won gold medals at the Cincinnati Wine Festival.
