More Medals!

May 2009. The 33rd International Eastern Wine Competition awarded Crofut Winery with Bronze medals for our Frontenac Gris and Prairie Blanc, plus a Silver medal for our LaCrescent White.

Winning a medal in this competition is an exceptional honor since all judges must be in agreement. Medals require a unanimous panel vote, so any winning medals in the IEWC are worthy of note.

The Northwoods White is now for sale at the vineyard in a limited release. It's getting rave reviews, so stop in and get yours before the rush is on!

New online stuff

We've got a cool new link from the Taste section of the Star Tribune website! There's a rotating ad in the top right corner of the main Taste page. If you click it, it "rolls back" and shows a nifty ad for the Crofut Vineyard. Pretty cool!

Speaking of cool, we're now allowing people to buy wine online and register/pay for events online. Our customer base is growing and there's a limited supply of our best wines. Don't wait for a nice afternoon to swing by the vineyard -- secure your order today online!
