Black Star Farms
Michigan’s Top-Rated Winery
The first and only Michigan winery awarded Best in Show at the Canberra International Riesling Challenge.
Tucked in the rural farmland and beautiful countryside of the Leelanau Peninsula, you will find our unique 160-acre winery estate. After a 15-minute drive from Traverse City along scenic M-22, a stunning vineyard welcomes you to our original flagship property, which has delighted guests since 1998. Take a trip up north and enjoy a respite in our equestrian-inspired 10-room Inn. Our tasting room offers a large selection of internationally award-winning wines and spirits crafted from local fruit. Our inspired culinary team will delight you with local farm-fresh cuisine at our Bed and Breakfast in Traverse City, our popular Arcturos Wine Dinners, or our onsite Bistro Polaris. Enjoy nature with over three miles of onsite hiking trails, multiple outdoor patios, vineyard walks, and strolls past our numerous horse paddocks. The beautiful outdoors, lakes and beaches, small quaint towns, and our team await you.
You may also experience selections from our 50+ wines, cider, and spirits at our Old Mission Winery and Tasting Room, conveniently located just minutes from downtown Traverse City among the rolling hills and spectacular views of Old Mission Peninsula.
