Celebrating 41 Years of Growing Grapes and Making Wine in Minnesota

In 1973, our family planted the first vineyard in Minnesota with a pioneering spirit that has brought us unlikely fame in the wine drinking world. Our tasting room opened in 1978 with the celebratory release of the first wines ever produced commercially of 100% Minnesota grown g

rapes. Today, the second generation of our family continues this proud heritage of making wines in the world's most difficult climate – "Where the grapes can suffer."

Bud swell is happening in the vineyard! As temperatures warm in spring, sap starts to flow through the vines and the dormant buds begin to expand and get puffy. This stage comes just before bud break, when green leaves start to emerge.

It’s an important sign that the growing season is beginning. All the potential of the 2026 vintage is wrapped up inside of these tiny buds!

Come and see the magic happening!
