    Such a unique building and story the building. They offered a large variety of wines all of which they Mays in house, they do not grow any of their own grapes. We loved reading about the building which was on the menu. They also offered a variety of snacks and unique mustards

    This was a cute wine tasting room! So many wines to choose from and they have a ton of merchandise for winos alike. We did flight tastings which were reasonably priced. $10 to try 4 half glasses of wine so we got 2 to split in between us. We definitely had some favorites like the Tropical Viognier. It smelled like a tropical beach vacation and tasted like it too. We also got a cheese and crackers board which my fiancé fell in love with the homemade jams they have there, we brought a jar of one home. My only downfalls to this charming place was that I wish we could of sat outside on that gorgeous patio but sadly for us it was down pouring rain, and that we could of caught some kind of event going on, it was a little dead for a Wednesday.

    Went here for a bridal shower, the space was tight and they had trivia going on across the room, so it was kind of loud for a Sunday afternoon. We ended up taking our drinks outside to the patio, which was very nice. We were able to order snacks (cheese & crackers). The cheeses were great, I bought some to take home. The wine was also great and reasonably priced. A tasting is only $5 for 4 samples, which is a great deal. We had a larger group, so the sampling was a bit disorganized. They brought the bottles around in the order they were listed, but they were grouped together (sweet white, dry whites, dry reds, etc.) so if you are a person who prefers a certain type of wine, you felt pressured to drink the samples quickly as they were bringing all of that group out one right after the other. They had a good variety and I liked the wines, I just wouldn't recommend this for a group larger than 4 people. They also only accepted cash, so keep this in mind!

    Great place!!!! Good service great wine. Walk over to the Tap room for some more refreshments. John was a great host.

    A family reunion at Blackhawk campground landed us in Milton, WI. How do you deal with 5 straight days of family? A wine tasting of course. You are served 4 complimentary wines of your choosing and can add other samplings at $1 each or 6 for $4.50. Of course I went for the 6. Most of them were very delicious. There was a variety of reds/whites, dry/sweet/ semi-sweet, ports and several limited varietals. Wheat thins are served as palette cleansers, but also for sale are fruit and cheese plates. The wine steward was very nice and really knew the wines and the history behind them and the building. Renovated wheat warehouse makes for a very cool setting. We had 12 in our group and she was totally on the ball keeping our sample glasses filled with each of our next choices. We walked out with about 20 bottles of wine between us all and enjoyed 1/2 of them by campfire that night.

    We are new to the area, from California, and we were driving around and came upon Northleaf Winery. It was late and we had not had lunch, so we stopped at the bistro. Our timing was perfect as the lunch crowd had passed. This was nice, we told them it was our first visit, and since they were not busy they were happy to tell us all about their food. They got my attention when they said "we bake all our own bread here daily", wow. I ordered the turkey on cranberry walnut bread. It was not to disappoint. The bread was delightful. I bake bread at home at least once a week, but never dense walnut style bread, so it was a nice treat. After lunch we walked about 50 feet to the winery. The woman there was very busy putting together tasting trays for an evening event, but tried to make a little time to explain about the wines. The flavors were truly strange to us. We purchased 4 bottles and brought them home. We have found these interesting blends are refreshing summer wines. In all fairness to Wisconsin wineries, they shouldn't be compared to Napa, Sonoma, Carmel Valley or even Italian wines. They were bizarre to us, because we never experienced them. They won't replace our favorite wines, but as a summer beverage, tasty. Bisto - 4 Winery - 2

    The side entrance to the winery.

    When my husband and I arrived here, we were considering not going in. The front of the winery is a bit rough. The name on the front is mostly gone and you enter through the side door. Once you get inside, it's a bit cramped. The staff was friendly and helped us with finding and sampling wines we would like. The winery is not very big so if you're the type of person / couple who like to go on tours of the winery prior to tasting / sampling some wine then I would pass on this one. We bought 2 bottles of wine and both were reasonably priced. I don't think we will frequent this particular winery very often. We did not go across the driveway to the bistro so I can't comment on that. My rating is purely based on the winery.

    Northleaf winery! Cheers!

    This business is in Milton, Wisconsin not Janesville. I miss the great Hilton Trivia Games that used to be held here monthly.

    Drumlin Ridge is elegant from the moment you pull into the driveway. You drive up the hill and find…read moreyour parking spot. Then you will enter the winery and go up to the second floor. The inside is lovely and clean. One end has merchandise for sale. And the long bar is where you decide which ones you want to try. Once you've marked them on the menu, they will bring them out to you in a carrier. You can do flights of three, six, or just buy a bottle. Or a taste. The outside is just beautiful. The seating areas, the umbrellas, the view, and the vineyards themselves. I recommend highly you come in summer, spring or fall and sit outside and enjoy your wine like we always do. I know the categories of their wines as dry, but, I found that they were more in the semi sweet side. They're sparkling wine, and the rosé were amazing. The reds were great as well. We ended up tasting six red wine and bought one bottle. They also have charcuterie, boards, and pizza. Go to this winery. You won't be disappointed.

    What a delightful find! We stopped in hoping for an…read moreafternoon of wine on a patio and possibly some food. And they delivered that! It helps that the weather was spectacular! You walk in and go upstairs to the tasting room. There are options for a 3-wine tasting and a 6-wine tasting. We obviously went with the 6...but also because the offering options were numerous and so many in each of our preferred wheelhouses. They pour the wine and give you a glass holder with all of them at once, so you can take it where you want to enjoy your wine, which I really like. The patio was welcoming and the view was wonderful and we enjoyed our initial tasting so much, we opted for ordering food and getting a bit more wine to drink to extend our visit! I got a large pretzel which was...fine. I expected and hoped for something more/better, but it was fine. My friend got a pizza and it was pretty alright as well. I am mostly just pleased and grateful that they have fairly substantial food options to enjoy with your wine. The tasting notes on the wine list are spot on, so pay attention to those! But also, try something new and different! The Almond bubbly was a delightful surprise! And the coffee infused wine was a bold offering. The staff were lovely and friendly, but also weren't too pushy or up in our business. It struck the perfect chord. Highly recommend a visit here if you like trying wines in Wisconsin!
