Livingston’s only wine bar, Uncorked, is dealing with the unexpected and changeable weather by offering warm meal specials like grilled cheese sandwiches and hearty red wines while preparing a summer selection of rose and crisp white wines and fresh salads—it’s Montana! The weather is hard to predict and we’re ready for whatever Mother Nature has in store.
Uncorked is offering music on Thursday and Fridays and even one Saturday in early June. There is no cover charge, and music begins at 6 pm. If the weather is nice, the performers may move outside under the historic Depot portico. It’s all about the experience, whether inside or outside, at Uncorked.
