Garfield Estates Vineyard & Winery, Palisade

Over the last 10 years, we transformed the historic farm we purchased in early 2000 into a state-of-the-art winery and estate vineyard. Our single-minded goal of producing premium wines from Colorado’s Grand Valley has become a reality.

We acquired Garfield Estates from the granddaughter of the family that originally homesteaded the land well over 100 years ago. From the very beginning we wanted to create a premium winery while also retaining the historic aspects of this property. Our winery is renovated from the original barn and incorporates this historic building into a modern winemaking facility. We will continue to respect the heritage of this great property while we produce the wines of Garfield Estates. It is our belief that this adds to the unique experience for visitors to our winery.

We have also continued the farming heritage of this property. In the spring of 2000 we planted our estate vineyard. Currently we have 11 acres planted with five different varieties of grapes: Syrah, Viognier, Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, and Muscat Ottonel. These varieties will form the foundation of Garfield Estates’ wines for many years to come.
