Classic Wines

We try and keep these wines in stock year round, however occasionally we do run out between vats.

Sweet Wines

Slap

Sweet Red Wine

Think “Welch’s sweet juice box, only for the foxy mama”.  When our neighbor tasted Tom’s first batch, his review was “it’s so good it makes you wanna slap you mama”.  This current batch is made from Concord grapes from the Finger Lakes region of New York. Served best with neighbors!

Big Prairie White

Sweet White Wine

This is a light, sweet moscato grape wine.  The perfect base for a fruity wine drink, or it stands alone as a perfect glass on a hot day.  The golden white color recalls the fields at harvest here in Big Prairie.  Cheers to the local farmers who make this such a beautiful place to be.

Elderberry

Fruit Wine

The aroma of the wild Elderberry is a bouquet to the senses. This wine captures it with a sweet, wild floral berry flavor, and just a hint of natural bitters at the end.  Our most popular standard wine pleasing to the sweet and dry wine lover.

Squall Valley Lovers

Sweet Blush Wine

Named after the “holler” where these two Holmes County love birds met in 1998, Squall Valley Lovers is a beautifully sweet blend of white niagara grape and blackberry.

Pickle’s Daughter

Fruit Wine

Pickle’s Daughter? Yes! This is a Pear Wine. Tom has made many wines and Tara has tried them all. This is Tara’s favorite of his fruit wines so he decided to name it after her. Pickle is a nickname her Dad picked up in grade school here in Holmes County. Take Pickle’s Daughters word for it and come try it.
