The road out of downtown Traverse City climbs and opens like a curtain: vineyards slope toward the two arms of Grand Traverse Bay while the lake breeze pushes the vines and the tour vehicle forward.

Grand Traverse Bay was named by 18th-century French voyageurs; Old Mission Peninsula grew from 19th-century mission farms into the region’s principal viticultural area, producing cold-hardy vinifera and specialty ice wines.
