Discover more about Holms Vinotek

Step inside Holms Vinotek and you’re instantly enveloped in the warm embrace of a true Danish vinotek: casual yet sophisticated, unpretentious but deeply passionate about the world of wine. Housed in a charming building on one of Viborg’s atmospheric central streets, just moments from the city’s iconic cathedral and main pedestrian thoroughfares, Holms Vinotek stands out as a haven for both wine lovers and the wine-curious. With shelves lined with carefully selected bottles – most sourced from family-run vineyards across France, Italy, Spain, and beyond – the bar’s concept centers on discovery and conviviality. Visitors can choose to sample wines by the glass, order tasting flights, or purchase a bottle for the table, all while surrounded by exposed brickwork and rustic Danish design touches. There’s a short but thoughtfully chosen menu of cheese, charcuterie, and light bites, designed to complement the nuanced flavors in each glass. Staff here are enthusiastic and approachable, eager to guide you whether you're a seasoned oenophile or just seeking a relaxing place to wind down after exploring Viborg’s medieval lanes. Holms Vinotek places strong emphasis on the social aspect of wine culture – it’s as much about shared stories and laughter as it is about the complexities of terroir. On Thursdays, the hours extend into the evening, creating a lively after-work hub, while Fridays and Saturdays can see the room come alive with intimate gatherings, low-key tastings, or the odd impromptu music session by local artists. The atmosphere remains relaxed and welcoming, with locals mingling easily with visitors. For those interested in digging deeper, occasional wine tasting events and meet-the-producer evenings offer a more immersive experience. The knowledgeable team is always delighted to make a personal recommendation according to your mood or meal, ensuring each visit feels just a little bit unique. Open most days from late morning to early evening (with extended hours on weekends), Holms Vinotek is easy to reach for anyone exploring Viborg’s center. It invites a pause – whether for a quiet afternoon coffee, an inspired glass before dinner, or a convivial night out with friends. With its blend of Scandinavian charm, genuine hospitality, and carefully crafted wine experiences, it’s become a favored stop among those looking to experience Viborg’s slower, more authentic side.
