Have you tried our Vermouth?

One of our passion project w**es here at Barnstormer (Aviator's W**e Club Members always get the first dibs on these).

Riesling based, fortified with grape spirits to 17 - 18%~ abv and fortified with locally harvested botanicals making a truly one of a kind tipple. We recommend serving on the rocks with an orange slice.

Our w**emaker, Perry, was busy harvesting some of the fresh infusions yesterday from a local farm, for the 2025 vintage.

Stop by and taste the 2024 Vermouth today in the tasting room or order online. Don't miss this hand crafted gem.

2024 Skin Ferment Dry Riesling
Home Farm Vineyard
220 Cases Produced

Not your average Riesling — and we meant it that way.

This one started at our home farm, hand picked, then spent 9 days fermenting on its skins before we pressed it and let it finish dry in stainless. Spontaneous fermentation and minimal intervention.

The result? Think Riesling but with a fuller body and a bouquet that leans into orange zest, tangerine, and apricot. Refreshing and fruit forward. Just a little more interesting than what you're used to.

Skin contact done right keeps the freshness. We kept a close eye on it — 9 days was the perfect spot.

Come try something different.
🍊 Get it while you can.
