Alexis Bailly Vineyard

Category: Vineyard on 3 Rivers

Alexis Bailly Vineyard is Minnesota's oldest
winery. Undeterred by skeptics who
asserted that no wine grape could
withstand Minnesota's harsh winters,
David Bailly rose to the challenge of
establishing a new viticultural region by
planting a 12-acre rye field with wine
grapes in 1973. French wine makers have
long held that in order to produce great
wine, the grapes must go through hardship
- wind, sleet, snow, drought.
Enthusiastically, Bailly adopted the motto
"Where the Grapes Can Suffer". For over
30 years, Alexis Bailly Vineyard has been
bringing unlikely fame to the wine-drinking
world with their award winning wines.
