About Us
Join us on the trail, where every glass is a journey and every bottle tells a story.
A collaboration of quality-focused wineries located in the Lake Michigan Shore AVA. Our member wineries range in size and are dedicated to using locally grown grapes to produce exemplary wines that showcase the unique aspects of our region.
Our location makes us special. Located at the 42nd parallel and the southern end of Lake Michigan, our region contains 90% of Michigan’s vineyards. This massive body of fresh water, up to 80 miles across and 600 ft deep, creates a benevolent mesoclimate for fruit growing, unique to our side of the lake and this corner of Michigan.
Our “inland ocean” provides protection from the extreme cold of winter and spring, and extends the growing season later into the fall. It also provides more than enough natural rainfall to produce the most flavorful grapes that will be crafted into award-winning wines.
