Wyncroft Wine Estate — Attraction in Casco Township

While traveling pure Michigan, we were lucky enough to have a unique excellent educational wine tour experience with winemaker James Lester at Wyncroft winery located in Pullman, MI. The tour culminated all of the fresco styles outside the winery to taste five samples of the finished wine paired with a tasting of local bread and cheeses. James Lester is a fantastic humorous host and very knowledgeable winemaker who grows many of the noble vinifera grape varieties from which the world's most exceptional wines are made. The tour requires an appointment because Wyncroft doesn't operate as a usual winery, and the owner lives on-premises. The interesting coincidence of that day was a pleasure to enjoy the joy of the excellent company and philosophy of life and grapes poured into one glass with another small group of visitors. All of them were from Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine.😁 And wine... I wish I could write some poetry praising the hard work and dedication of winemaker and appreciation of such a vibrant aroma...

Wyncroft is an excellent vineyard to visit. It’s by appointment only, but James made everything quite simple to work out. He’s a great and gracious tour guide too. His tour of the vineyard was educational and the land itself was beautiful. The tasting was generous, especially considering the quality of the wine, and it was paired with cheese from a local creamery. You can definitely taste the dedication and work that’s gone into the vineyard, and the wine is, I think, the best in the area. I’d definitely recommend taking the tour and buying some wine, but please arrange it...

My wife and I loved our visit to Wyncroft. James is a wonderful educator on wine in an engaging, unpretentious manor where anyone at any level of wine knowledge would enjoy the visit and feel welcome. He knows his own wines and vineyard exceptionally well given that he and his wife farm it themselves. The Wyncroft wines are phenomenal. The Lepage Pinot Noir hits well above the $45 price point and the Blaufrankisch (savory, peppery, balanced fruit) stands up against a high end Austrian or German version. We purchased both! We look forward to a...
