Strawbale Winery

our friends and family have helped us build a unique straw bale constructed winery. tucked away between a 100-year-old barn, shelter belt, and grape vines, this winery, its farm setting and surroundings may remind you of simpler time. imagine a winery in south dakota, made of strawbales. the remarkable insulating properties of strawbales means we are able to reduce the energy needs of the winery and recreate the controlled environment of the cellars and caves that have always played an important part in the maturation of great wine. this innovative building material along with our recycled countertops and salvaged timber frame links our commitment to environmental sustainability and the production of fine wine. strawbale winery now has over 20 different wines that vary from fruit, grapes and honey (meads). don is the winemaker and is constantly crafting new wines for you to try. so come out and embrace the environment we have created. take a tour, see what we have to share with a glass
