Region:

Wisconsin

Wisconsin, with its rolling hills and fertile valleys, is an emerging and diverse winegrowing region in the Midwest. Spanning the state's varied landscapes, Wisconsin's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) encompass a rich array of terroirs. The cool, deep waters of the Great Lakes play a significant role in moderating Wisconsin's vineyards, sending cooling breezes and moist air inland. This helps temper the summertime heat, allowing grapes to ripen slowly and fully. Cooler-climate grape varieties thrive near the lakes, producing refined and nuanced wines, while further inland, the warmer areas support the cultivation of bigger, bolder wines. This diversity of conditions enables Wisconsin to produce a wide range of wine styles, each reflecting the unique character of its growing regions.
