Plan Your Visit

“Dablon Vineyards & Winery is one of my favorite places to visit. The tasting room is beautiful and welcoming in any season and we love the wine and warm welcome. I’ve been fortunate enough to try many vintages from Dablon over the years, and I keep a couple of bottles in my cellar for special events. When I visit a winery, I always look around to see if everyone else is having fun, and it never fails: Dablon makes people happy!”

“Before you wine snobs pshaw the notion of “Midwest” and “Napa Valley” co-existing in the same sentence, take a few swigs of Dablon’s 2015 Estate Red Blend or Domaine Berrien Cellars’ 2016 Crown of Cabernet, and then we’ll talk”

“What sets Dablon apart from its peers? A couple things do, in my view. First, their Burgundian-type wines are very good, but Dablon’s overall strength is in age-worthy Bordeaux style reds. This puts them in relatively rare company in Michigan, but what sets them apart from even from the other winemakers that produce strong is their willingness to experiment with different varieties. Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are relatively rare in Michigan, but Malbec, Tannat, Tempranillo, and Petit Verdot are almost unheard of. Nebbiolo is only grown one other place in the state to my knowledge, and as noted above Carmenere is probably unique to Dablon.”
