Old World Charm.
NoMi Terroir.
Old world charm meets new world energy.
Barry O’Brien’s passion for different cultures—and how people around the world shape the land to meet their needs—plays a big role in the winemaking philosophy at ŌBV. The goal is simple: to make Culturally Inspired, Climate Appropriate wines. That means creating styles that actually make sense for Northern Michigan’s cool climate, like traditional Champagne-style sparkling wines, aromatic whites, and smooth, medium-bodied reds. Many of these wines are influenced by regions with similar growing conditions, such as Alsace, Champagne, Germany, and Northern Spain.

100% Pinot Noir made in the Méthode Traditionelle of Champagne. Strawberry and currant flavors with a touch of brioche aromas.
Our take on Dry Riesling!
Offering subtle peach and citrus aromas with intense stone fruit flavors, finishing dry. A perfect dinner companion with fish, seafood or poultry, or later with a good book. $24
Inspired by our love of Spanish wines, Tintō Finō is a medium bodied “fine red” blend of 60% Tempranillo, 15% Graciano, and 25% Cabernet Franc, grown on the Old Mission Peninsula. Aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, it yields beautiful dark fruit and subtle oak aromas. A worthy table companion to roasted meats, wild mushrooms, and pungent cheeses. Salut!
