Spirits of Norway Vineyard is located in the historic Town of Norway, Wisconsin. The proud heritage of the Town of Norway dates back to 1839 when a group of 40 Norwegian immigrants settled in the area because of the rich growing soil.
Today, Spirits of Norway Vineyard continues to utilize the rich growing soil for their spacious vineyard consisting of cold climate-hybrid wine grapes. The University of Minnesota has an extensive grape breeding program. They have successfully developed grapes that combine high levels of cold hardiness with hybrid wine quality. Randy Larson, president of Spirits of Norway Vineyard, has chosen several popular varietals to locally grow in their vineyard. Marquette, Petite Pearl, Marechal Foch, Frontenac, Noiret and Leon Millot are red grape/red wine varietals, while Brianna, Frontenac Blanc, Catawba and Somerset make up the white grape/white wines.
Spirits of Norway Vineyard holds special events throughout the year and offers a “Tour ‘N’ Taste” vineyard experience two weekends per month from April to October (reservations required).
