We are a third generation working farm that has diversified to become a successful farm winery. Our 365-acre farm includes a herd of Grass-fed Angus beef, soy and corn, farm animals and a Farmstay B&B. The expanding vineyard supports a state-of-the-art winery producing award-winning wines that are enjoyed at our wine tasting room open year round.
