Our first building! The vineyard shop and temporary winery!
Second year Frontenac, the test fruit were wonderful!
Looking east from the lower vineyard to the upper. The permanent winery was built just behind the upper vineyard on top of one of the higher hills overlooking the Platte river valley. This gives the winery a commanding view of both the vineyard and the valley.
