MaryBeth S.

We really we surprised at how good the wine was. Not at all what I had anticipated, the maple wines are not overly sweet or thick. The wines are refreshing and fruity and smooth. The unexpected surprise was the maple ginger cider! Tim took us in a wonderful tour and we had a very enjoyable visit. We will be back soon and I can't wait!

Our second visit and it was as much fun as the first three years ago. We enjoyed meeting the owners and their son. It was nice finding some genuine people who care for their land, business and family. The wine flight was excellent and we bought some treats for our friends. This is a great laidback stop while visiting wineries, brewers, and meaderies near Charlevoix.

Of all the wineries that we have toured in Northern Michigan, this one is the most unique. Who would think that fermenting maple syrup would yield wonderful wine? I highly recommend this wonderful place where the people are nice and the syrup runs sweet!

While vacationing, my partner and I take turns planning quests each day. My partner's surprise adventure one day entailed taking me to Maple Moon Sugarbush and Winery, located in the country of Petoskey. The tasting room was lovely. A large window overlooks their patio that looks out into their beautiful prairie with their Maple Trees. The bartender for the tasting room was so welcoming and knowledgeable. Not only did she share interesting information about each wine and how the wine is made from maple syrup (though, surprisingly, it is lower in sugar than most grape wines on the market), she was a great hostess and fun to chat with about all things Petoskey. The wine was very good. It has its own distinct taste, so it can't really be compared to grape wine. I especially liked the maple wines that were infused with real fruit, with the peach wine being my fave. We bought some maple syrup to take home with us too, which is delicious! I am looking forward to returning to Petoskey this spring to take a tour at Maple Moon to see how they tap their maple trees for their delicious nectar. Maple Moon Sugarbush and Winery is a highly recommended stop if you are looking for a unique experience.

BEST WINERY IN PETOSKY! Don't know where to start, amazing service and very personable! For $12 you get to try 4 different wines, I recommend trying the maple Gold, maple royal or anything maple!!! Freaky fast service, never had an empty glass of wine! We will be back!

Quaint little winery that is America's only maple winery. Not all the wines had maple in them, but it did work well with the fruits. We each tried a wine flight of 5 wines for $9.00. We always choose different wines on our flights so we can sample double the wines. Very friendly and knowledgeable server (may have been owner). They had a lot of maple syrup, salsa and jam to choose from. We bought the cherry jalapeño jam. It was deliciously on top of a block of cream cheese and spread on crackers. Be sure and put it on your list of wineries!

Farm tour from owner Christi showed us every step of the maple syrup making process. She made us feel like family!

Finding enjoyable things for a family on 9 to do on vacation is sometimes tricky, but every single one of us loved our time at Maple Moon. Our children loved the maple ice cream and playing yard games on the patio, and the adults love the wine tasting. Everyone was fascinated with the afternoon tour where owner Christi showed us how all that syrup makes it's journey from tree to table. Thanks for making our day extra sweet, Maple Moon!

Such a great experience! We had a long day driving from Pittsburgh and we made it here just in time before they closed. We still got to unwine-d in the tasting room. The woman that served us was easy to talk to and knowledgeable about the wine. We got to sample 5 wines and a keepsake glass to take home for a very reasonable price. The maple in the wine is so distinctive and they have a wide variety with different amounts of a maple taste. My favorite was their Maple Gold wine, which of course is a best seller! I was very impressed with the experience and got some bottles to take home with us. We would love to come back someday! Be mindful that it is a small intimate venue so if you have more than 6 people, you may have to stand.

A wine made without grapes but with maple sap? Yes please! This is the first and as of now only maple winery. Very cute inside, offering personal tastings, or you can take a flight outside. A place I can leave with wine and maple syrup, sign me up! My favorite was the maple Cherry finished with some dark chocolate, you can't beat it. read more

What an unusual tasting experience. The first winery in America to use maple syrup in the wine making process. Cute wine tasting venue indoor/outdoor with knowledgeable wine stewards. We chose the four taste flight, reasonably priced at $15. I had hoped for a walking or narrated tour of the adjacent maple forest from whence the syrup cometh but that was not an option. The tastes were interesting. read more

A tiny tasting room tucked away in an orchard of maple trees with some of the most unusual and delicious sweet wines available describes this winery. We ordered a flite of 3 different wines and 1 cider, 4 pours as they say, and each tickled our taste buds. Never thought I would be drinking vino made with maple sugar. Along with the wine came a keepsake glass with the Maple Moon and Sugarbush logo and a package of oyster crackers to cleanse the palate after each pour. In addition to the little tasting room with one busy server, outside are picnic tables where patrons can enjoy their drinks and other maple products (syrup, candy and salsas and chips without maple). read more

Make the stop! I admit I was hesitant about this one because I don't like sweet wine and maple wine sounded like it would have to be pure sugar, sugar, sugar, but I was pleasantly surprised with the wine and ciders they offered and it wasn't all sweet. They have a super cute, rustic tasting room and the two ladies pouring samples in the tasting room were very welcoming (Christie, I'm sure was the owner, but didn't mention it and was pouring samples and smiling right along with her staff). We really loved the Early Spring Reserve (try it!). We also bought a bottle of their Bourbon Maple Syrup to go. Looking forward to enjoying the Early Spring Reserve again here at home soon. Thank you for the kind service and sharing your unique and carefully crafted wines, ciders, and syrups! read more

What a great experience! I was completely stunned that maple sap could be fermented to make really awesome wines! Some served here are mixed with grape, but most are pure maple wine. They weren't all sweet like I imagined they would be, which is great for those who don't like sweet wine. The first maple wine on the menu is the most dry. Of course, there were lots of sweet ones too! The lady who served our tasting was so friendly and knowledgeable, and we had a great experience. I really enjoyed the maple/red wine combo. The flavor reminded me of Christmas dinner! I purchased several maple products in the gift shop, and you can have syrup samples too. read more

Love love love this place! We had previously visited the winery 2 years ago as my cousin suggested it as we were in the area for a wedding. We came back recently as we were camping and made this pit stop 2 hours from our camp site just because of how good it is! The inside area is cute and has other products to buy such as maple syrup, candies, BBQ rubs, shirts, etc. The first time we visited we sat inside but we sat outside as we had our dog with us and they even told us they love dogs. The deck outside is beautiful as well. The server was lovely and knowledgeable about any questions you had. My fiance and I did a flight and honestly loved every single one. We ended up buying a Blueberry and a Royal wine to take home (Blueberry is our personal favorite). The wine itself is so unique as it is made with maple syrup! If you're looking for a friendly experience and you enjoy wine do not hesitate to stop by here! read more

We were at a craft show in Harrisville Michigan over Labor Day and saw the Maple Moon Syrup and decided to buy it instead of our regular maple syrup. Was this ever a disappointment, the syrup was very thin with no taste. When we emailed MAple Moon, Christi Petersen was very rude in her reply email. I ended up throwing the syrup away because no one wanted to eat it. I will obviously never by syrup from this establishment again. read more

From the Business

Specialties

They are America's FIRST and ONLY Maple Winery. Their wines are fermented with maple syrup instead of grapes. When fermentation is complete, it is a dry maple wine. However, they only leave one dry and sweeten the others to varying degrees to make sure they have a little something for everyone. They have 11 varieties available, including a few reds and two hard ciders on tap. See the web site for more details. mmsyrup.com

History

Established in 2012.

It all began when the Todd and Christi bought their 80 acres. God put it on their hearts to teach their four children about resourcefulness, hard work, integrity, gratefulness, generosity and contentment. In 2011, after 2 years of back yard sugaring, they discovered their "sweet spot." They decided to produce Pure Michigan Maple Syrup as a family business. In 2015, they turned some of their maple syrup into wine, becoming America's First and ONLY Maple Winery. While many wineries combine various ingredients to create something new, it's much rarer to take it a step further with maple syrup. Customers rave that the wines have an exceptionally smooth finish,. The ten wines available vary from dry to sweet. However, the most popular is a port style maple wine with bourbon added. They also serve a top notch Maple Ginger Hard cider and a Maple Bourbon Aged Hard Cider. It is an off the beaten path, one of a kind find, if you visit the Petoskey area!

Meet the Business Owner: Todd and Christi P.

Todd is also the owner of Woods and Water Construction, a high end custom home builder in the Petoskey Area. He loves to hunt and fish when he is not working. Christi is a former elementary school teacher. She loves to be immersed in nature in her spare time, biking, kayaking, hiking, skiing, snowshoeing and taking photos.

The scenic views of the countryside are breathtaking, especially with the beautiful lavender fields and the new grazing sheep, which are just the cutest! The staff are some of the nicest people you will ever meet, and they consistently go the extra mile to make you feel like family. Between the people, the atmosphere, the scenery, and the food, I seriously never want to go anywhere else. Thank you, Petoskey Farms, for all that you do!

We witnessed the dogs smell each other and then without provocation, one of the 4 owners dogs that were wandering freely at the winery, grabbed and bit the visiting dog in the neck, drawing blood. The visitor had to kick the owners dog to get him to release their dog. There was blood on the ground. The owner said "well that happens." Offered no apology. They have multiple signs posted warning visitors of their free roaming dogs. However, why in gods name they have a known vicious dog that is roaming freely when visitors bring their dogs. Do NOT bring your dog here. We would not return.

Dave runs a very professional and knowledgeable wine tour of the Petoskey Wine Area. He knows the…read moregrapes and wine makers and can talk in depth about the area. You will be transported through four or more wineries and get to interact on many levels. A couple wineries that stood out to me were Walloon Lake Winery and Petoskey Farms Wineries so be sure to ask to go there as the wines were really good and the people who make the wine were very accessible. Lunch is a part of the tour and Dave serves it at one of the wineries so you can enjoy a glass with lunch looking at breathtaking views. I couldn't imagine doing this tour and tasting so much wine on my own. Having a professional wine guide ensures that you can safely enjoy the wines without worrying about driving yourself! The price is affordable and the educational experience is worth it! I learned a lot of great info from Dave.

It is worth doing tour that includes lunch. May I recommend the Ruben Sandwich. It was delicious. You will not be disappointed. Sasha

We received a goodie bag with a granola bar, trail mix, and a bottle of water and there was also cold meat/cheeses and a veggie tray to eat if we wanted them (we ended up getting lunch at one of the wineries, so cannot comment on the cold snacks, but the granola bar was tasty). The tour was well paced with 45 minutes to do a wine tasting at each winery. You could tell there was a lot of thought put into the order of the wineries, as the most educational was first and the most relaxing/best views was last. Also, one of the wineries we visited offered lunch and that came at just the right time as it had been a while since breakfast. Our driver, Jeff, was very personable and was able to give information on the different wineries and what they offered. The van seats up to 9, so you could rent it for a small group or drop in on a mixed tour (which is what we did). He picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel, so we didn't have to worry about driving (which is good, because when you do four wine tastings in four hours, you drink quite a lot!).

I really enjoyed the white truffle oil (from Modena, Italy) and the Provencal Herbs (from Tunisia). What I absolutely REALLY loved is that each tin of oil has facts like where its from, best description of flavor like for the Provencal it said "subtle - savory, thyme & bay leaf, with lavender" or what the use is best for (i.e. salads, fish...etc) and balsamic pairings! I have to say their balsamic vinegars were my favorite. I almost died when I tried the Pomegranate Balsamic from Italy. The note card said: Medium tart and compliments: Salads, lamb, beef and duck Good Oil Pairings: Persian Lime, Chipotle, Basil Idea: With Basil EVOO, serve over salad greens topped with nuts, Feta Cheese and onion. I mean, that's great! You try something and are like "hmmm, what can I do with this..." well it gives you everything! I do agree with the other review in the fact that the sales people do hound you, but I didn't think it was annoying. She did leave us alone and made sure we knew to feel free to try any oils and vinegars we wanted. We had a few questions and they were incredibly nice. They also sell cookbooks, oil toppers, crackers and other stuff that goes perfect with everything they currently have. I think for organic oils/vinegars the prices are great. You can also buy online, seeing as they only have stores in Michigan! Cute, CLEAN store. I wish we had something like this in Dallas. I would be all over that! Mmmmhmmm.

They did have a big bowling alley area but they charge $40 an hour without shoes which seemed pretty steep. The kids did have fun for a bit but there wasn't must for them to do.

They do charge almost $5 per shoe rental as well. We did stop and eat food at the restaurant as well. I will have to write a separate review.
