Maple Ridge Vineyard LLC — Attraction in Thompson Township

Great wine, friendly server, generous tasters.

This was our second trip out to wine country and had a really enjoyable experience here. The woman that served the tastings is the daughter of the owners and was very helpful with any questions.

They had a wide range of dry whites and reds that were excellent. The tasters were very generously portioned, you may want share glasses especially if you are going to more wineries. There was a very bold chardonnay that if I closed my eyes, I would think that I was drinking a red wine. I can't remember their wording for their wines, but one group was their very good wine and the other was their very very good wine.

This was the smallest winery that we've been to. The tasting room was attached to their house. There were a couple of cats wandering on the patio, with horses nearby.

Have been members now for 15 years and it is worth the money. The wine is fantastic, we don’t bother with wine trails anymore. Once we found Maple Ridge we stopped looking elsewhere. Our basement wine rack is stocked with our membership wines and we always find something to pair with our meal. The owners: Jim, Patti, Ron, and Nina are kind and wonderful people. Jim is a fantastic host and always offers great advice on food and wine pairings and great conversation. Patti is a talented winemaker and a joy to see. We enjoy their members events and Jim’s amazing pizza. We often gift their wine to other family members and friends and they always comment on how good it is. We feel their wine is superior to other wines in the region and are so fortunate...
