Blustone Vineyards

Specialties

Our winemaking process starts with a principle:

Let the wine express itself.

It takes a lot of time and patience to make a stand-​out bottle of wine and while it’s tempting to make wines that answer to deadlines and constraints, we’re constantly refocusing to make it all about a product that reflects the labor of the vines and the joy of tasting a piece of Leelanau.

Our Sylt Road vineyard is located on 40 acres of beautiful land in the middle of the Leelanau Peninsula in Northern Michigan. Planted in 2005, we have 10 acres of grapes with another 3 acres being prepped.

The new tasting room is located in the middle of the vineyard with panoramic views, floor to ceiling windows, and a modern, clean vibe that creates and experience of Leelanau that is unforgettable.

We’d love to have you visit!

History

Established in 2010.

Finding a piece of Leland Bluestone is finding a rare treasure of nature. Blustone wines are inspired by these unanticipated moments of life.

Our story started many years ago visiting the Leland, Michigan as a family for the first time. The simplicity and beauty of the «tucked away» secret that is Leelanau has always been what we treasure most about the area. Turning off our cell phones and listening to the rhythms of nature found here is a favorite past time. This connection to the land has always been what we cherish most and our dream to start a vineyard that celebrates that was born out of that. Our namesake is reflective of the connection with the environment and the celebration of life that we hope to inspire with every sip of wine.
