Old Mission Peninsula

 



On this sunny, sloping vineyard,

rising above Lake Michigan,



these luscious, juicy grapes

find perfect growing conditions



to become fine red wine

from Old Mission Peninsula.

Abundance

 

West Michigan orchards and fields

produce an abundance of delicious fruits:



Tart red cherries

from Leelanau Peninsula,

shine glossy in the summer sun,

ripened for your homemade pies.



Bunches of plump blueberries

grow densely on bushes,

ready for you to pick and

put in your freezer and muffins.



Clumps of apples

hang heavily on branches

waiting to get into your

mouth and your strudel.




Michigan grapes

thrive on the vine,

prepared to be poured

into your glass as wine.

Michigan Wines and Vines


 
Plump and plentiful
Michigan grapes.


Prime time.
Take a tour.
Make a toast.
Take a taste.


Find time
to dine
with friends
and fine wine.
