A bold experiment

We're off the beaten path, a winery and vineyard that began with the premise that Bernie Rink's five sons needed something to do to stay out of trouble. In 1965, Bernie, then a librarian at Northwestern Michigan College, planted a one-acre test plot of wine grapes in Leelanau County to determine if commercial wine could be made locally. The rest, as they say, is history.

 

Our promise to you

We sell high-quality wines made from 

grapes grown on the premises. We use

French-American hybrid vines, which are

cold-hardy and able to ripen well. We offer our wines at affordable prices for everyday use. 

If for any reason you are not satisfied

with our products, we offer replacement

or full refunds.

We do not sell T-shirts

Boskydel is open 1-5 p.m. daily, seven days a week, excluding major holidays.
