In 1990, Chris Lanthier and his soon to be bride, Tami Hagemier, purchased the property and began the restoration process. In serious disrepair, it required four years of intense restoration, including 12 months to remove debris left from decades of neglect. The process was complete in 1994 and Lanthier Winery opened it’s doors in September of that year. The Cellarmaster produced 10 different wines for the grand opening. Today the winery boasts 16 various wines plus 3 holiday wines and is one of Madison's most popular tourist attractions.

Overall Comments::
The Chautauquablümchen is always an annual medal winner and customer favorite. This Indiana wine is refreshing and lightly sweet. A Catawba who's name means gathering of blossoms. It's name aptly discribes the fragrant bouquet that wifts up from visitors wine glasses.
