Heaven Winery
Sip & Stay Awhile
Is this Heaven? It sure is - and you're going to love it! Enjoy our ever-growing selection of award-winning wines made right here at Heaven. In addition to the 20+ wines we make, we also maintain a curated list of dry and off-dry wines from many other native Iowa wineries, Iowa craft-beer, wine slushes, Art and gifts by Iowa artists, and two unique, one-of-a-kind lodging options (reserve on Airbnb.)
In 2026, we will have LIVE MUSIC and a FOOD TRUCK EVERY FRIDAY from MEMORIAL DAY to LABOR DAY (except June 5!)
With complimentary wine tasting every day, Heaven is a beautiful place to discover your new favorite Iowa wine or craft beer, pick up the perfect gift, take an art class, and unwind with friends while overlooking our lovely vineyard in the heart of the gorgeous Driftless countryside.
The Art Studio at Heaven. We turned a 36' grain bin into an amazing 1000 sq. ft. Art Studio. We are scheduling fun creator classes most Thursday evenings and Sunday afternoons. Click on the EVENTS tab above to see the (ever-changing) schedule. We're working hard to find the most interesting classes for you, including painting wine glasses, making handmade paper, seasonal sign painting, mandala painting wine bottle lights, create your own hummingbird feeders, Zen Stones with award-winning artist Sue Kuennen, wreath making, macrame, fascinating lecture series, painting with local artist Andrea Seitz and more. The space is also available to rent for small groups/meetings. Call Lisa for more information.
You are welcome to bring food along to enjoy with your Iowa wine/beer every day except Friday Nights. No outside beverages ever, please. Pets welcome (on leash) and kids welcome (leash optional.) Check out our EVENTS TAB above for more information on Creator Classes as well as the Friday Night Live Music schedule.
Our Wines
We are a boutique winery and produce select vintages in limited quantities throughout the year. Our first releases, Mother's Little Helper and Fishing Widow, debuted in fall 2020, followed by Love is Love in June 2021 and our first dry red, Amortentia, in September 2022. Daydream Believer joined the lineup in July 2023.
In 2024, our watermelon wine—created for the Fayette Sesquicentennial—sold out quickly and returned in 2025 as a favorite. Ooh La La, a blend of sweet peach and tart raspberry, was released for the Paris Olympics, followed by Rohde Red and our best-seller, Sweet Forgiveness.
In 2025, we introduced eight new varietals, including La Crescent, White Cranberry, Spiced Caramel Apple, Blueberry, Cherry, Strawberry, Watermelon, and Heart of the Country. (Carlton has been busy in the cellar!)
Wine slushes are back, along with our selection of Iowa craft beers. In addition to our wines, we offer a curated selection of dry and off-dry wines from Iowa wineries. Heaven wines are available by the glass or bottle.
Volga river Vineyard
Volga River Vineyard is at the heart of Heaven Boutique Winery, rooted in both family history and a passion for growing exceptional Iowa grapes. Planted in 1999 on the farm where Lisa’s mother grew up, the vineyard continues to thrive today with a variety of cold-climate grapes including Marquette, Marechal Foch, La Crescent, Concord, and Frontenac.
Each season brings new growth and new opportunities, as the vineyard is carefully maintained and nurtured to produce grapes that reflect the strength and character of Iowa’s land. From the first vines planted by Roger and Connie Halvorson to the ongoing care provided today, the vineyard remains a labor of love and a key part of the Heaven experience.
