We stopped in while traveling up north and were pleasantly surprised to find a cute little wine tasting room in the small town of West Branch, of all places. I've been to West Branch several times before (we usually stay at a cabin on the water with our friends), but I've never seen anything associated with a winery here before, so I had absolutely no idea what I was missing! They had quite an array of reasonably-priced wines, starting around $11 and going up from there to around $22 per bottle. We were offered a free wine sampling of a couple of different varieties, including a semi-dry, but buttery chardonnay ($11), which had a nice, rich flavor for a lower-priced bottle of wine. I would recommend that anyone who likes white wines. It was a hit with me after just one sip. It wasn't too dry or too sweet. It had some nice, subtle notes that I could detect afterward. Next, we tried a chocolate wine. My husband was very hesitant at first, but came around on it after giving it a chance. I liked it, myself, too. It was a richer wine, probably not for everybody's taste, but I found it quite suitable. We were told it was infused with Mackinac Island Fudge, so that must be what gave it its incredibly distinct chocolate taste. If you like chocolate or fudge, this one is a winner. The manager/owner suggested mixing it with Modern Craft's cherry wine for optimal effect. He said the two bring out the best notes in each other. He then paired them together for me and you know what? He was right. Count me in! Another winner. He was both engaging and quite knowledgeable about the wines they had in stock. He definitely knew his stuff. Beyond that, there were several other interesting wines at a mid-range price point that looked worth trying, including a blackberry wine and a variety of lighter, fruity wines, suitable for a summer evening. They had a special on some discontinued seasonal wine, running about 50% off, which was a bargain. Aside from the tasting room, the space is home to a small gift shop featuring home decor and accessories. I didn't bother to check it out too well, but looking around I saw some cute things that I would like. I wish I had taken a little more time to check out the gift shop as well, but I focused my visit solely on the wine tasting. I'm really glad we stopped in. It made for most pleasant side trip foray. I would never have known this place was here if I hadn't decided to stop into town just to look around for an hour or two.

Eventually a few other couples showed up and we moved from inside to outside. There were several outdoor areas to choose from to sit. It was very quiet and peaceful out there. It is a beautiful place to relax and unwind. There are also several places to sit inside. There is a bar, and several tables. They have beer, wine, cider, sangria, and even a cider slushy, and Bloody Mary made out of wine. There is a double-sided menu with so many choices that there is definitely something for everyone. I chose to get a flight of 4 things - you can mix and match whatever you want and it was only $7. I chose wine, cider, and (Caramel Apple) Sangria! Everything that I had was absolutely delicious. The customer service was also great - very friendly person working that day and she let us have a couple tastes before deciding what we wanted to drink. I will definitely go back if I am in the area.

We had wonderful conversation with our server, sorry I can't remember her name and the manager (?). Nice ladies. I tried 2 white and 2 reds from the "dry" menu and hubby tried 4 reds, also from the dry menu. We ended up purchasing 1 white (The Big G) and 2 reds (Capricious and Red Cap-?). So now I'm looking forward to a steak at home with these reds! There's not much else in the area but this was a fun pit stop for our trip towards Muskegon. Would definitely stop by again if we're the in this area again Parking is ample (we visited in March and it was so not many visitors). Prices are good, 2 flights and 3 bottles was around $60. They do have charcuterie, cheese and crackers and one or two dips. We didn't get any food but just know that's available. If you're in the area or passing through this place is worth the visit.

B&B Winery is a hidden gem outside of Ubly and Bad Axe. The home start-up has grown 3x its size in five years and hosts various vendor events, painting classes, belly dancing, and more. You're sure to have a great time and enjoy learning the meaning of some of the wine names. Like why are some of the wines called threesome, Bad Ass, and swingers? The stories will surprise you and the hospitality will win you over. Definitely worth a visit to sample, sip, and shop.
