Hartland Winery

How It Started:
When Alan planted a vineyard and then started making wine in Brenda’s kitchen in 2006, there was never any thought of opening a winery. But, when he started entering wine competitions and winning bronze, silver, gold, and double gold, it became clear that he had an untapped talent; so Alan and Brenda started making plans. Those plans took 7 years to come to fruition but we are so happy to share our dream with you. In 2018, after being opened just a little over two years, Hartland Winery was awarded Indiana Winery of the Year at the Indy International Wine Competition. The Indy International is blind judging based on the quality of the wines submitted. We were and still are, both humbled and honored to receive this prestigious award.  

The Vineyard:
Our vineyard is planted on 4 acres with 6 varietals. By having our own grapes we have more control over the quality of the wine we make. We have Lacresent, Vignoles, Ives, Norton, Seyval Bland and Vidal Blanc. Along with our own vineyard, we also have growers in the area that grow grapes for Hartland Winery, allowing us to take advantage of locally grown grapes as much as possible.
