History
In 2003, we made the decision to move our animals to the back barn, and changed hats on the barn once again, this time converting it to a state-of-the-art commercial winery that it is today. You can still appreciate the hay loft and Dutch stall doors. We currently have the production capability to process almost 3000 gallons of wine annually, translating into 1200 cases. Still, very small potatoes in the scheme of commercial wineries, but we'd have it no other way. Every step of production is done by hand, allowing us to maintain the artisan quality of our wines.

Tasting Notes:
2007 Rubato Ohio River Valley DOUBLE GOLD
A delightful wine with a dense full color and aromas of violets, cinnamon, anise, tamarind, coconut, ripe plum, and coffee. Well married oak adds richness to dense, silky flavors. Soft acidity.
2006 Rhapsody Ohio River Valley GOLD
A great pasta wine styled like a Bardolino, medium-light in body with a zingy, palate-cleansing acidity. The nose has violet, basil, cherry, plum, and lemongrass, and the light but firm structure in the mouth carries plum, peach, white cherry, and cranberry.
2009 National Women's Wine Competition
BRONZE MEDAL 2007 Rubato
The National Women's Wine Competition is the first and only U.S. based wine competition judged solely by superstar women of the wine industry.
This is the competition that answers the question, "what wines do women love?"Women make 60%+ of all the wine buying decisions in the U.S. Our annual "shopping list" that is distributed worldwide via the web tells women the wines women with great palates find medal-worthy. This helps consumers to make informed wine purchases.
