Survive and Thrive

From Vine to Bottle Right Here in Iowa

Now open for both patio and inside service
Open hours are noon – 5:30pm Wednesday – Sunday or by appointment.  For everyone’s safety and to comply with CDC regulations, we must limited large groups so activities like parties and classes are either cancelled or restricted. Please check our Facebook page or the website calendar for current information.
 
Now serving more food
Savory Sunday meals have been so popular we’ve expanded food and snacks availability to every day we are open. Cheese, meat and cracker plates are always available as well as other small plate items.  This gives you an opportunity to experiment with food and wine pairing.
 
Our wines available in West Des Moines
One of our goals for this year was to get our wines into a retail space in the Des Moines area. We are super excited to get three of our wines in the Jordan Creek Hy-Vee in West Des Moines. Hy-Vee has been very supportive of not only us but to the Iowa wine industry. If you are in the West Des Moines area please stop by and pick up Storybook, Speedway Sweet or Raceway Red. The manager at Hy-Vee is also open to special requests so if you don’t see one of our wines you like, let the manager know. We really appreciate the support of the Hy-Vee Wine & Spirits in Knoxville, Pella, Chariton, and Newton.
 
Contribution to Knoxville Hospital & Clinics
Thanks to all who purchased wine through curbside service during the time we were closed to the public. Half of that revenue during the shutdown time was contributed to the Knoxville Hospital and Clinics foundation to support our local medical teams.
 
More campers are traveling
We are hosts for the camping membership organization, Harvest Hosts. Through this company we get to meet people from all over the US who travel in RVs and stay overnight in different locations, ours being one of many in Iowa. People want to get out and travel and this is a great way have a unique, personalized camping experience. We’ve doubled the amount of visitors from last year.
