Date:
July 5, 2024
Time:
6:00 PM - 8:00 PM CDT
Event Description:
Great wines start in the Vineyard!
We meet so many curious customers who ask wonderful questions about the vineyard and winemaking process, so here's an opportunity to "Walk with the Winemaker" and experience Summer in the Vineyard. Our winemaker, Bob Barry, is a retired Federal career biologist, turned vineyard manager and enologist. Learn about the transformation of this former corn and bean field to an abundant 7.5 acre vineyard featuring 11 French-American hybrid grape varieties in their 5th growing season. From the vineyard to the wine production, follow the process from growing the grapes, to making the wines, to pouring your glass. The tour will be followed by a tasting of 5 wines, one from each category of our menu. You’ll also receive an exclusive offer for 10% off 2 or more take-home bottles of wine.
