What's there to do in Knoxville?

Wine and cheese pairing class

A new decade is here and Mike and I are working on how best to serve our customers in the coming months, not only with excellent wine but with what we can offer to the community for an entertainment venue. 

Our first full year at the new winery location in 2019 provided a roadmap of what to do better and more of in 2020, thanks to the feedback from many of you. What we’ve discovered is our location and services are popular with groups, clubs, and organizations. A few of the events we’ve had the pleasure to host include Iowa Pork Producers meeting, Knoxville Hospital summer party, Mustang Club of Iowa tour, Breakfast for Sprint Car drivers, Travel bloggers writing session, and Midwest Heritage Bankers retreat. 

Support of performing arts and local talent is also a high priority
The winery stage offers a perfect setting for musicians, storytellers, and artists to present their craft. Expect to see another annual Mother’s Day Fashion Show, Art & Authors Showcase, and Holiday Arts & Craft Fair. If you’re a writer, you’re invited to our weekly Marion County Writer’s Workshop. If you enjoy exploring your visual art side, come to our many art and craft classes sprinkled throughout the year.

Of course, one of our primary goals is to provide wine and vineyard experiences
Look for our home wine makers classes, food & wine pairing, Wine 101, vineyard tours and hands-on activities such as the Harvest Party. You may also enjoy our recently-created, personalized food and wine opportunities; Stellar Cellar and Rock Star Dinners.
