Barrel Head Winery

Barrel Head Winery We produce estate-bottled wine grown right here in Dubuque. Feel free to visit us throughout the year

For us, great wine comes from grapes grown in the rich Iowa soil. We’re known for dry reds that fill drinkers with the warmth of the Midwestern sun. And our sparkling whites are fermented a second time in the bottle to ensure your glass is filled with tiny, effervescent bubbles. Our wines are also estate-bottled, which means we control the entire process starting from planting and ending with cork

ing. We’ll help you pick out something that fits your palate, pairs with a meal, and we'll show you around our vineyard too. Even though our wines are internationally recognized, they’re grown right here in Dubuque, and honestly, we wouldn’t have it any other way.

While the stacking doesn’t look as pretty when the boss is here, we have another 17 cases in the works of a new sparkling.

After a busy day of harvesting grapes, it is time to relax a bit and eat.

We ventured out to Textile Brewing, down the road from Field of Dreams in Dyersville, IA. The b**r is delicious, as well as their amazing pretzels.

Can someone explain how to eat one of these, and where to start? 🍴 😋 😁

Because... you can never say no to these pretzels... a must have! 😍

If the w**ery grounds seem quiet this time of year, rest assured our production room is buzzing with activity. Earlier this week, our team was busy "pressing down the cap" on our Leon Millot.

This crucial step in the w**emaking process serves several vital purposes:

Extracts profile: Submerging the grape skins draws out rich colors and robust flavors.

Prevents spoilage: Keeping the skins moist protects the batch from unwanted bacteria.

Regulates temperature: It dissipates the heat naturally generated by active fermentation.

Aerates the yeast: Introducing oxygen ensures a healthy, uniform fermentation process.

Crafting an award-winning w**e is a journey that demands patience, a watchful eye, and countless careful steps long before it ever reaches the bottling line.
