About The Great Untamed
The Great Untamed broadens Wino Notion's definition of a Wyoming winery in an interesting and transparent way. The downtown Laramie producer holds a current winery license, but visitors should not arrive expecting a conventional Cabernet-and-Chardonnay tasting room. Its specialty is a wider fermentation spectrum that includes mead, cider, artisanal soda and country wines made from fruits other than grapes. That makes the venue especially valuable for curious drinkers who want to explore how "wine" can extend beyond traditional vinifera grapes. The Great Untamed is located at 209 S 3rd Street in central Laramie. Current first-party information lists public hours Tuesday through Friday beginning at 4 p.m.
and Saturday beginning at noon, with closing time described simply as "close." The state license record confirms the winery permit at the same address. Hospitality is strongly community oriented. The venue regularly promotes live and traveling musicians, karaoke, readings, open mics and potluck-style gatherings, giving it the feel of a local creative hub as much as a beverage producer. That identity makes it a very different recommendation from a vineyard visit. Calling The Great Untamed only a "winery" would be technically defensible but incomplete; calling it a meadery would also understate its country-wine production. "Winery, mead and country-wine tasting room" gives users a better expectation of what will be poured. It is a strong fit for adventurous tasters, craft-beverage fans and visitors who prefer casual, local nightlife to formal wine service. The editorial story is not about imitating a classic wine region. It is about a Wyoming producer using different fruits, honey and fermentation traditions to create something local and community driven.
