Spare Key Winery  
Family is the Key to their vineyard and winery. In 2011 we began with just 400 vines, and with the help from their family and friends planting, trimming, and harvesting, they have continued to expand each year. The Spare Key Winery is one of the few estate-grown and bottled wineries in Northern Michigan, meaning their wines are made from grapes grown in their vineyard and processed on-site by their team.
