About

Madison County Winery is a family-owned operation in Fort Dodge, nestled between 10 acres of vineyard and approximately 36 surrounding Iowa vineyards. All wines are sourced entirely from Iowa. The portfolio includes Amica Reserve, a dry oaked white with aromas of ripe pineapple and lychee and a creamy finish. Rosette, a semi-sweet rosé with hints of raspberry, fruit punch, and strawberry. Marquette, a dry red with delicate floral notes atop ripe cherry and toasty oak. The tasting room opens Thursdays through Sundays, with a flight option of five 1-ounce samples for $12.
