Planned Development Activities

The picture to the right is an aerial view of the planned development site for the winery and vineyard. The property is is located in Olmsted Country near Rochester, Minnesota and is bordered West by county road 105 and on the East by the Zumbro River. The photo is cropped at the North and South borders of the property and County Road 103 runs through it. The vineyard is up and operational and we hope to tak our first crop this summer (2008).

Please check back for updates

The planting of phase 1 (shown at the very bottom of the aerial photograph) is complete. The first four acres include one acre blocks of Frontenac, LaCrescent, Prairie Star, and Sabrevois. A two-acre lake and recreational area are planned toward the upper center of the picture and the winery building will be near the top of the picture.
