Wines

The first planting of vines was started in 1999 with Valiant and Frontenac grapes. Additional Frontenac, St Croix, Concord, and Kay Gray grapes have been planted, bringing our vineyard to over 1,000 producing vines. Schadé Vineyard buys additional grapes and other fruits from area growers, all within 200 miles of the winery.

Wine production in 2001 was over 300 cases, in 2008 wine production reached 4,000 cases. As production increases our wines are available in more retail outlets.
