Blustone Vineyards

“Our friend was hyping this place up since we planned our vineyard tour and it didnt dissapoint! Im not one for dry wines but my friends all loved their and the addition of wine chips made for a nice experience they all said. The heating unit made for a cozy afternoon looking out towards the snowy vine fields.”

“Could not make a reservation for a tasting as website said “ no reservations available for today”, so we took a chance and stopped by and found it to be really easy to sample wine and sit outside with a glass of wine and enjoy the day! Staff is always so nice. Just live the wine and the ambiance here. We will be back next week!”

“Blustone Vineyard is our absolute favorite winery in the area! We are Blustone Club members (now living in Houston, TX) and visit here every time we're back in MI. We love to come during all seasons of the year- and truly have the hardest time picking our favorite wine because they are all SO good! When we began thinking about where we wanted to have our wedding this summer.. It was no question that Blustone would be our first choice! We decided to get married at Blustone this summer and it was the absolute best wedding we could have ever imagined! We knew the day would be perfect and were excited to show our guests (many of whom had never been to MI) our favorite place! Firstly, Ben and his staff outdid themselves with their hospitality (not surprised because we always have incredible service when we visit) but our guests doted this afterwards multiple times, making sure to mention that the staff went above and beyond for our event. Secondly, the views!!! Inside, the modern building itself is, simple, clean, elegant, and light filled which made for a great cocktail hour post ceremony. Our guests loved going up to the counter to order our suggested favorites, but were also allowed and encouraged to enjoy tasting other wines and ciders that Blustone offers. This was a huge hit with our guests! Many guests even bought wine to take back to TX with them! Outside the green vines speak for themselves! Simply stunning, with rolling hills for miles with nothing else insight. Sitting a little up off the main road makes Bluestone feel secluded, giving you that "napa/sonoma" feeling that again- many of our guests mentioned experiencing during their visit. Lastly, it was personal and special to have the entire vineyard to ourselves on our wedding day with all our favorite people. The weather was amazing for a July outdoor wedding and the sunset/dusk at night was just the cherry on top. We will never forget this day, and are already planning our winter and anniversary visits! Thank you, Blustone!”

“Blustone Vineyards in Lake Leelanau is nothing short of spectacular—a five‑star gem on the Leelanau Peninsula. The modern, hilltop tasting room with its floor‑to‑ceiling windows offers panoramic vineyard views bathed in natural light, and the expansive terrace with fire pits sets the perfect tone for a relaxing, elevated wine experience . From the moment we walked in, the warm, knowledgeable staff made us feel right at home—servers like Anne and Sherrie provided personalized recommendations that elevated our experience and made us eager to become wine club members . We tried a curated flight of their estate-grown wines, and every pour was outstanding. The 2022 Winemaker’s Red Blend, awarded 92 points and a Gold Medal in April 2025, was deeply complex and elegant, with spice and structure that lingered long after the last sip . The gourmet charcuterie board and crisp, refreshing apple‑ginger cider paired beautifully with their whites and dessert wines   . Whether you’re indulging indoors or enjoying the patio, the ambiance is consistently inviting. Blustone truly lives up to its reputation as the “Napa Valley of the Midwest.” Five stars without question—a must‑visit winery that combines breathtaking scenery, exceptional hospitality, and world‑class wine.”

“We visited the tasting room as a part of the “wine with a twist” wine event through Leelanau Peninsula Wineries. Upon arriving, we were told that there was no space available inside and we could come back an hour later. There were multiple tables available with reserved signs on them. We’ve now been informed by other wineries we visited that blustone is reservation only. Why be a part of a tasting event if you aren’t going to allow patrons of the event inside? Another staff member ultimately allowed us to stand outside in the rain with our tastings (which were completely different than what was listed on the lpwines event website). Very disappointing experience.”
