For 45 years, Door Peninsula Winery has been a mainstay of the Door County economy, producing the finest and largest selection of wines in Wisconsin.

The winery was founded in 1974 by Mark Fehls and Tom Alberts in a former two-room schoolhouse. Built in 1868, the school served Carlsville residents for nearly a century, closing its doors in 1963. The building was chosen by the winemakers because of its thick basement walls (which made it perfect for storing wine), as well as the visual appeal of its Victorian-era architecture and bell-tower.

Fittingly, the winery’s products have consistently been recognized for their high level of quality. Collectively Door Peninsula Winery has earned over 200 awards and recognitions. With over 60 different wines and ciders to be tasted, be sure to stop by the winery on your next visit to Door County.
