Nestled on 58 acres of Michigan's stunning Old Mission Peninsula, 2 Lads Winery crafts cool-climate reds and sparkling wines with a dedication to sustainability and gentle handling. Established in 1999, the winery boasts 23 acres of flourishing vines across three distinct blocks.
At 2 Lads Winery, healthy land is paramount. They believe this philosophy translates directly to the health of their grapes, resulting in exceptional wines. The winery's multi-level facility utilizes a unique gravity-flow system. This eliminates the need for pumps, ensuring the most delicate treatment of the wine throughout processing, racking, and aging. This gentle approach preserves the natural aromatics, flavors, and colors that contribute to the complex and captivating final product.
