7 Vines Vineyard

The story of 7 Vines Vineyard begins with Ron and the late Arlie Peltier, high school sweethearts from the east side of St. Paul. They both attended the University of Minnesota, married young and raised two children in Dellwood, Minnesota. After eyeing the property for decades, the opportunity came in 2010 for Ron and Arlie to purchase a beautiful piece of land in Dellwood from the granddaughter of railroad baron James J. Hill. Their love of fine wine and the advancements made to grape growing in the Midwest inspired the Peltiers to start a vineyard and winery on the historic estate.

Just 20 miles northeast of the Twin Cities, 7 Vines is a true destination. It's one of Minnesota's largest full-experience wineries and a beautiful place for community, friendship and celebration. Acres of rolling vines and a state-of-the-art winery invite visitors to explore the grape-to-wine process and savor handcrafted wines with Midwest charm. The winery boasts beautifully handcrafted woodwork with a modern rustic flair, abundant windows, gorgeous accordion doors that allow for plenty of natural light, and scenic views of the vineyard and surrounding lands. The property also features a large wine bar, two stone fireplaces, a barrel room, a full bottling facility and, of course, amazing award-winning Minnesota Grown wine.

With 10 acres of rolling vines, the 7 Vines estate is the perfect place to host family celebrations, holiday parties, and corporate and social affairs. As a 2020 Best of Weddings honoree by The Knot, 7 Vines Vineyard is also an ideal place to indulge your wedding-day dreams. Indoor and outdoor ceremony locations, an elegant fire wall and a pergola with a louvered canopy allow wedding couples to host a picture-perfect special day. Better still, Kowalski's is one of 7 Vines' preferred caterers.
