About

Designed and built as a dairy farm in the early 1900s, the soul of this property was carefully restored and given new purpose; its gently sloping pastures, once deeply lined with the hoof prints of a half-century’s herds and knotted with fence lines, rocks and tree stumps, became host to the tranquil symmetry of trellis.

The circa-1904 hung barn, rare both for its architecture and longevity, was lovingly refurbished and now houses the tasting room, gallery, gift shop and indoor event spaces. An expansive outdoor terrace offers spectacular views in every season and is a welcoming spot for simple gatherings, receptions, family outings and large public events.

The dirt floor and cinder block walls of a one-time cattle shed provided the shell for the original winery. It was a beginning. As the business grew and more space was required, in 2002 a 5,000-square-foot purpose-built winery with all of the necessary modern amenities, replaced it. The original building now houses an automotive workshop and workout facility.

The traditional four-square farmhouse too has been carefully rehabilitated and though a private home, it stands as the vineyard’s welcoming matriarch, beckoning visitors from across the country and around the world to enjoy this singular brand of Wisconsin hospitality.
