The pioneer winery in the Huron Shores wine region, Alton Farms Estate Winery was established in 2005 on a 90-acre property, with a 7-acre vineyard. They hand-craft all of their wines using sustainable practices in the vineyard and in the cellar to produce premium wines such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Marechal Foch and more. Abundant wildlife, nature trails and nearby sandy beaches along the shores of Lake Huron provide a beautiful setting for wine tastings, tours and special events. ALTON FARMS ESTATE WINERY
