Frequently Asked Questions

Are vineyard tours available at Saint Croix Vineyards?
Yes, vineyard tours are part of what makes the experience here worthwhile beyond just a tasting. Tours give you a real look at how cold-hardy grapes are cultivated in Minnesota's challenging growing climate.
Can Saint Croix Vineyards host a private event or wine tasting party?
Private events are available, and the vineyard setting in Stillwater makes it a distinctive venue choice. Reaching out directly at (651) 430-3310 to discuss your event size, date, and needs is the best first step.
What makes Minnesota wine different from wine from other states?
Minnesota winemakers primarily use cold-hardy grape varieties developed to survive winters that would kill traditional European vines. This produces wines with bolder acidity and unique flavor profiles that reflect the northern climate.
Is Saint Croix Vineyards close to downtown Stillwater?
The winery is located in the Stillwater area, though it sits outside the immediate downtown core. It's an easy drive from the main strip, and many visitors combine a downtown Stillwater visit with a trip to the vineyard.
Do they offer a wine club membership?
Wine club memberships are a common offering at Minnesota vineyards and give members access to new releases, discounts, and early access to limited bottles. Contact Saint Croix Vineyards directly to find out about their current membership tiers and benefits.
What's the best time of year to visit a Minnesota winery?
Fall is the most popular season because harvest is underway and the foliage around the St. Croix Valley is genuinely stunning. Summer is also busy, especially in a tourist town like Stillwater, so weekday visits tend to be more relaxed.
