Little Winery, Big Plans

This week one of our featured wineries is Glyn Mawr Winery of Olin, Iowa.  Olin is one of those little Midwest towns that is always described by what bigger town is nearby: "in between Mt Vernon & Anamosa" we tell customers.  If they continue to have a blank stare we describe it as "east-ish of Cedar Rapids a ways".  
Glyn Mawr Winery is a small family operation that produces wines from only "estate" grapes, meaning those grown on their farm. They produce familiar Midwest varietals like Marquette, Frontenac, Brianna & Frontenac Gris, as well as several blends. Their Marquette & the wine punch they make with the Gris are especially popular in our store. 
Glyn Mawr also has big plans! Recently they announced they'll soon have a tasting room in the Mt Vernon downtown. The photo to the right shows the remodel still has a ways to go, but we're sure it's going to turn out wonderfully. 
Follow their FB page to watch their progress, and in the meantime come to The Wijn House to taste the wines of Glyn  Mawr Winery all this week!
