OUR WINES
Wine a little. You'll feel better!
MOOREHEAD RED
Simple and Special
This primarily Marquette blend exhibits cherry and black currant flavors and aromas of blackberries, plum, and spice. A medium-bodied red.
LACRESCENT
Refreshing
La Crescent has an intense nose of apricot, peach and citrus. Lends itself to superior quality sweet white wine.
PETITE PEARL
A True Classic
The gamechanger in cold climate grapes! A full bodied, dry red. Our favorite! Notes of fresh fruit. Well balanced wine for any occassion.
MOONLIGHT SYMPHONY
Local Favorite
You asked! We listened! This is our only wine not directly from the estate. A warm weather wine bottled especially for Old Town. Very refreshing and very sweet. Directly from California.
FRONTENAC
For Serious Wine Drinkers
Frontenac, originally a Minnesota variety, is a wine drinkers' wine! Deep cherry and plum notes with a typical dry finish. Described as taking walk in the woods.
SABREVOIS
Oakey & Rich
A dry and fruitful red. Our Sab is deeply aromatic and pairs well great with Italian meals. It has moderate sugars with an classic red wine finish on the palette.

OUR STORY
Our History
Old Town Vineyard & Winery is located in Ida Grove, Iowa. While Ida Grove, Iowa may seem an unlikely place to grow grapes, we are proud to call it the home of our three acre vineyard and winery.
Old Town Vineyard & Winery shares its name and location with the original settlement of the Village of Ida. Old Town Vineyard & Winery began in 2006 with the planting of 100 Marechal Foch grape vines on a southern slope overlooking the town of Ida Grove.
With additional plantings each year of LaCrescent, Prairie Star, Marquette, Noiret, Sabrevois, Frontenac, Verona and Petite Pearl it became obvious that retirement from a busy medical practice in 2009 was necessary.
What began as a post retirement hobby has grown into a 100% family owned and operated business. Everything from the “Vines to the Wines” is the handiwork of Dr. John and Lenee Sinnott.
The winery was completed in the same year. Three acres of vineyard will allow us to produce All-Iowa vintages. Our goals are to produce quality wines and a place to share good times.
We are passionate about crafting a high-quality Iowa wine. We sincerely hope you enjoy our wine and share it often with those you love.
In the words of our favorite Irish Proverb:
“May the Roof Above Your Head Never Fall In and the Friends Gathered Below Never Fall Out”
Cheers,
Dr. John and Lenee Sinnott
