Northern Vineyards is owned by the member-growers of the Minnesota Winegrowers Cooperative. We were the first modern winery cooperative in the United States. Each member maintains a vineyard between 1-15 acres and produces grapes that are brought to the winery in the fall to be made into our wines. Each vineyard has its own unique characteristics for growing grapes, depending on soil and sun exposure. Our growers are located as far north as Rice, MN and as far south as Viroqua, WI. Vines receive meticulous care in order to withstand the rigors of Minnesota’s continental climate. Our members specialize in growing grape varieties developed to grow in our unique climate.

Robin Partch has been our winemaker since 1989. He is one of our original members of the Minnesota Winegrowers Cooperative. Robin is an integral part of the Minnesota wine industry. He is a founding member of the Minnesota Grape Growers Association, and a founding member of the Minnesota Farm Winery Association. He has won more
than 100 international awards for his wines and is a recognized leader in the industry.

Northern Vineyards Winery was established in 1977 and was acquired by the Minnesota Winegrowers Cooperative in 1983. We are Minnesota’s oldest winery. We established the Minnesota Winegrowers Cooperative as a means of making and selling wines from the grapes produced by our grower members. We have members located throughout Minnesota and western Wisconsin.

The winery has a deck that overlooks the scenic St. Croix River and historic lift bridge. It is a wonderful spot to bring your own picnic and pair it with a glass or bottle of one of our award winning wines. The deck also serves as a unique venue to host a private party. Contact us for additional information.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
