Grande River Vineyards

The rich mineral content of the soil, intense sunlight, Colorado River water and cool nights are just a few elements that make the Colorado wine country’s growing conditions exceptional.

The buttes & mesas surrounding Grande River Vineyards radiate warmth down to the vines to ripen the crop to perfection in late August through October and protect the vines from severe winter freezes and spring frosts.

Grande River Vineyards, the fifth licensed winery in the state, planted its first grapes in 1987 and fermented its first wine in 1990. Until 2006 Grande River Vineyards was Colorado’s largest grape producer.
