According to my directions I should reach 1.010 sometime between 5-7 days and move to stage 2 of the process. However I am at day 10 and only at 1.025. I believe the room has been a little cold only low to mid 60's for the majority of the time and I'm sure that would slow the process a little. Is there any reason to suspect things aren't going as they should be though?

No, you're still fine! It's just slower because of the temperature, that's all. Wine yeasts are adaptable, though, and will work well at lots of different temps. Just wait until the hydrometer reading is where it should be, and you'll be fine.
