About
Vino in the Valley is a unique, outdoor dining experience designed to stimulate all your senses.
Every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday night, as well as Sunday afternoons, May through September (with additional weekends for fall and Christmas, see below), enjoy a glass of wine and a pasta dinner among the vines in an outdoor setting nestled in the heart of the Rush River Valley. You’ll take in the sites of the emerging vineyard while dining on Italian nachos, gourmet pizzas, pasta, and sipping area made wine in addition to wines from all over the world. After dinner, take a stroll around the vineyard, along the river, and relax near one of the bonfires.

October Fall Weekends
While we hate to see the summer go, autumn is an amazing time of year at Vino in the Valley; the comfortable days and crisp evenings, not to mention the beautiful pallet Mother Nature uses to transform the Valley into a vibrant masterpiece! Some people say our great food and wine taste even better during the autumn season…there’s only one way to find out.
Rush River Tree Farm
Adjacent to Vino in the Valley you’ll see our Rush River Tree Farm. Add to your holiday memories and enjoyment with a beautiful and lush live Christmas tree. ‘Choose & Cut’ your own tree or make a selection from our inventory of fresh cut trees. Varieties include Balsam, Fraser Fir, Canaan, and White Pine (long needle) with sizes varying from 5′ to 10′. We also offer beautiful fresh wreaths, swags, and spruce tips for holiday decorating at your home or business.
Vineyard
Since our vineyard is not yet producing, Vino in the Valley purchases regionally grown grapes from local growers through the Minnesota Winegrower’s Cooperative. We have contracted with Cannon River Winery to create three types of wines for the Vino in the Valley private label: white, blush, and red. View Wine Menu
Gift Shop
When visiting Vino in the Valley, take the time to browse through our gift shop. We offer Vino in the Valley apparel, including shirts, hats, blankets, pullovers, and more. Our Vino in the Valley etched wine glasses are the perfect souvenir of your visit. Plus, take a bit of Vino home with you by purchasing a bottle (or two) of our private label wine.
