Pinot Grigio
Classic Pinot Grigio this dry, lighter bodied wine is pale yellow with a wonderful green apple and citrus nose. It is clean and crisp with a palate cleansing acidity that makes it perfect for pairing with your favorite poultry, light pasta and seafood dish.
Rose of Cabernet Franc
Very limited production, people go crazy over this wine every year. The honeydew melon hits you on the nose before the taste of red fruit and raspberries washes over the palette. Elegant wine that works with food or relaxing outside on a beautiful summer day.
Rose of Merlot
Rose of Merlot offers undeniable strawberry notes followed by a smooth, creamy finish. At 0.5% residual sugar this wine is dry and fruity. Perfect for sipping on the deck or the boat.
Rose of Pinot Noir
Beautiful aromatic wine that expresses hints of mango and papaya on the nose, delicate summer berries on the palate accompanied by a dry, mouthwatering crisp finish.
Late Harvest Vignoles
Vignoles is grown at our Swede vineyard and sits down in a lower area that is more frost prone. Vignoles thrives in the low sandy, well drained soil as bud break is typically later than other varietals and it ripens earlier. This wine has a bright acidity, countered by a residual sugar to create balance. Stone fruit notes make this a very appealing wine and top seller.
Chaos Sparkling Rose
This light pink bubbly is made in the charmat method. It is finished brut in style creating a refreshing, dry, light and fruity wine.
Lakeside Glow
Inspired by the magical hour when the sun paints the lake in glowing reds and golds, this Merlot was aged in a mixture of new and neutral French oak barrels. A bit of residual sugar (3%) was retained to soften the tanins and create a more fruity, supple wine. Red fruit aromas on the nose are followed by a touch of sweetness on the palate.
Gewurztraminer
A dry Gewurztraminer with beautiful floral, rose petal nose with pineapple and tropical fruit on the palate. Elegant and rich, this Gewurztraminer is a new world demonstration of a classic.
Late Harvest Riesling
Off-dry with pear and apple flavors, this Riesling is backed with a subtle acidity that harmonizes the wine. Great with spicier foods and a favorite with spicy Thai stir fry.
Malbec
We experimented in 2012 and planted 2 acres of Malbec on a hot, east facing slope. Several of the vines declared they didn't like Michigan winters but the rest have thrived. Huge dark purple clusters hang until late-October before being transformed into a cool climate expression of this classic varietal.
Pinot Blanc
Pinot Blanc is one of our most popular wines (it won Best Dry White Wine in Michigan the 2 years our Dry Riesling didn't take home the award) and shines in its representation of cool climate whites that we are known for. This grape really shines here on the Leelanau Peninsula in Michigan producing a lush, fruit forward wine ready to be consumed the moment it is bottled. Dry, complex, and great with seafood and white sauce pastas.
Dry Riesling
Won Best Riesling and Best Dry White Wine at the Michigan Wine Competition. Expressive tropical and peach and a fresh acidity on the palate that make everything play together perfectly.
Unoaked Chardonnay
A true crowd favorite. Tropical fruits and honeysuckle dominate this steel fermented Chardonnay. Look for a touch of white pepper on the nose in this tangy Chardonnay.
Reserve Red Cab/Merlot
Estate Merlot and Cabernet Franc aged in French oak are blended just before bottling to yield a medium ruby wine with hints of leather, cherry and blackberry. Excellent now but patience will be rewarded over the next 7-10 years.
Cherraz Dessert Wine
Cherry wine infused with raspberries, fortified with brandy and aged in oak barrels. Perfect after a cold day or with a decadent dessert.
Verterra Brut
Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are used in this brut style, traditional method Champagne. This wine spent 3+ years on lees before disgorging and bottling. Ripe green apple and fresh bread on the nose this wine will age well for another decade or more.
