One day after finishing up at the Polson Farmers Market we saw a sign for a free wine tasting right around the corner. We couldn’t resist and boy were we blown away. We met Dana and her story was incredible. She started the winery on her own and still makes everything herself in small batches. All of the wines are made from fruits grown on Flathead Lake which is some of the most fertile soil in the world. If you’re expecting a sugary fruit wine experience, you’ll be in for a surprise. These wines, while not made from grapes, have the perfect taste of wine mixed with the unique flavors of the fruits they’re made with. This is a must have while at Mount Forge, and a strong recommendation to take home with you. She is an artist in multiple ways, she hand paints the label designs herself.
