Prairie Berry Winery

Filed under: Luxury Travel & Hotels, Wine

The latest in our series of wineries in places in the United States other than California takes us all the way to South Dakota and the Prairie Berry Winery. At Prairie Berry, as you may suspect by the name, they create a whole lot of fruit wines from fruit such as chokecherries, rhubarb and locally raised honey. They also make wines from new grape hybrids that can grow in South Dakota's colder, drier climate. The winery has had particular success with the Frontenac grape, a variety developed in Minnesota to thrive in colder climates. Their 2006 Frontenac, a light and fruity red which has won several awards, sells for $15. The wines are sealed using the Stelvin screwcap closure. The winery also has a tasting room that is open year-round.
