Whole Hearted Winery

Whole Hearted Winery is based in New Hudson, a small community in Lyon Township in Oakland County, sitting just off I-96 at a natural crossroads between metro Detroit and Southeast Michigan's lake country. It holds a 4.8-star rating from 42 reviewers, which is a strong signal of consistent quality and customer satisfaction. The business spans winery, brewery, and distillery production, making it one of the more ambitious craft beverage operations in the western Oakland County corridor. New Hudson's location along the I-96 corridor gives it easy access from both Ann Arbor and suburban Detroit.

The winery side produces fermented grape and fruit wines available for tasting and purchase on-site. The brewery adds a craft beer dimension, covering the preferences of guests who lean toward hops over tannins. What truly distinguishes Whole Hearted is the distillery component, which produces spirits such as whiskey, vodka, or gin, depending on the production schedule. That three-tier approach means a single visit can take you from a wine flight to a craft beer tasting to a spirits sample, which is genuinely unusual for a facility of this size in the region.

Whole Hearted Winery serves guests from New Hudson and the surrounding Lyon Township area, drawing visitors from Novi, South Lyon, Wixom, and Brighton. Its position just off I-96 also makes it a convenient stop for travelers moving between Ann Arbor and the Detroit suburbs.
