Michigan's first and only winery awarded Best in Show at the Canberra International Riesling Competition.

The Winery at Black Star Farms invites you to embrace the enticing aromas and flavors of our hand-crafted wines and spirits, showcasing our region’s unique lake-effect climate and agricultural bounty.

Since 1998, we have been producing wines from local vineyards on the Leelanau and Old Mission peninsulas, providing you with a product we consciously craft from vine to bottle. Because of our commitment to preservation, many of our vineyards are protected from development and can only be used for agricultural purposes or green space. In addition, on our Suttons Bay farm, all cropping, livestock, and forestry standards meet or exceed the Michigan Agriculture Environmental Assurance Program (MAEAP) set forth by our agricultural governing bodies.

At Black Star Farms Suttons Bay on the Leelanau Peninsula, we invite you to explore our 160-acre winery estate, including our red wine processing facility, spacious tasting room, outdoor terrace, distinctive Inn, onsite bistro, equestrian facility, and recreational trails.

Just minutes from downtown Traverse City, you will find our second winery and tasting room located on the Old Mission Peninsula.  This "recycled" facility was once an apple cider mill but now focuses on our white wine production.

With over 50 wines and European-style brandies, we have something to please every palate. So join us on your next visit to the Traverse Wine Coast!
