December 2009: Snow? What snow? We've
had a great turnout for our holiday wine sale and so we've extended our
weekend holiday hours through all of January, too. Come see us in the
vineyard!
October 2009: WineGeekTV Visits the Vineyard
Jeff and Jeff visited us during the Grapestomp and we had lots of fun. See
the newest episode of
winegeektv.com at the Crofut Family winery.
September 2009:
Thanks
to all who attended our Grape Stomp Festival! We raised over 1,250 pounds of
food for the Scott Carver CAP Agency Food Shelf.
Cities 97 morning hosts BT and Lee were there, too.
See Grape Stomp photos.

Visitors
to the Crofut Family Winery & Vineyard will see the grape harvest and
processing of grapes for juice and wine production. Our fall tours showcase
the different grape varieties planted, with a tour of the vineyard and
tasting of fresh grapes picked by tour participants.
Children can pick their grapes, press the juice
and play with the farm animals. This is a great opportunity to experience
grape growing in Minnesota; and an example of a non-traditional value-added
agricultural crop for Minnesota's economy.
