Window In A Winery

Wollersheim Winery, Prairie du Sac, WI

Wollersheim Winery is one of America's oldest winery estates. The vineyards were established
before the Civil War, and wine was made from then until the turn of the century. Bob and JoAnn
Wollersheim re-established the picturesque winery and vineyards in 1972. There are now 25 acres
of varietal grapes. French-born winemaker Philippe Coquard has combined tradition with the
unique climate and growing season of Wisconsin to produce regional wines distinctive to this
area of Wisconsin. A tour of the winery features a walk through the vineyards, a visit to the
underground limestone cellars, and an explanation of the history, winemaking and wine aging.
