Events, Tours and Private Parties
We believe wine should be approachable. Fenn Valley tours and private group experiences have been designed to help take the mystery out of making world class wine. We aim to strike a balance between education and entertainment. . Book an extended tour hosted by an experienced member of the Fenn Valley staff or one of a variety of private experiences for your group of up to 10 people.
Premium Wines in Southwest Michigan
What does our slogan, “The Lake Effect Everyone Loves” mean? What is the “Lake Effect” and why is it so important? What we call the “Lake Effect” is the moderating effect that Lake Michigan has on the climate of West Michigan, and it is what makes grape growing possible. There is a narrow band right along the shore where cold tender grape varieties can be successfully grown. Most people who live around here know the Lake Effect as heavy winter snowfall. But we know the Lake Effect as milder winter temperatures leading to great Michigan wine. Open year around for tastings and wine by the glass, 11am – 5pm everyday, or buy Michigan wine online.
