BLACK BRIDGE WINERY

Black Bridge Winery

At our Orchard Valley Farms & Market, locals and visitors alike stop by our friendly tasting room to sample and purchase hard-to-find wines from the highly-regarded West Elks AVA. Taste our own Black Bridge wines and those of neighboring wineries S. Rhodes Vineyards, Alfred Eames Cellars and Stone Cottage Cellars.

Try our Beezley Block Pinot Noir. We have to admit that we're particularly proud of it, made entirely from grapes harvested at the peak of flavors from our high altitude, sustainably grown vineyard. The name "Beezley Block" honors the tough, pioneer farmers who cleared the land where our vineyard prospers.

In keeping with the storied history of the ruggedly beautiful Paonia region, the wine cave built by Black Bridge uses structural framework salvaged from a local mining operation. The cellar is the site of events such as a Thanksgiving barrel tasting. Click on www.blackbridgewinery.com for pictures of the wine cave, updates in the Farm Journal and News/Events sections, and sign up for harvest notices for our peaches and "soon to be world famous" cherries.

From Memorial Day to Halloween, shop our Orchard Valley Farms & Market for fresh from the field, sustainably grown fruits and vegetables, and a wide array of tasty gourmet foods and gifts. Tastings of Colorado wine, balsamic vinegars and olive oils. Year 'round check out our store online.

It's an easy drive through stunning Rocky Mountain scenery to our convenient location on Hwy 133. There's plenty of parking and easy walking access. We invite you to experience our farm, and picnic along the quiet, shady banks of the clear, mountain-stream fed North Fork of the Gunnison River.

Remember, we're always open online for ordering Colorado wine for yourself or gift-giving at www.coloradowineonline.com.
