Cabernet Franc

Syrah

Coastal Red is a blend of the coasts.  The newly released blend is 75% Cabernet Franc grown on the Fresh Coast of the Leelanau Peninsula with the additional of 25% Syrah blended from the West Coast.  It has beautiful dark fruit notes of blackberry on the nose with a medium body and bright finish.  The acid on the end makes this wine ideal to pair with game, grilled skirt steak, brats and other types of sausage, and hard cheese such as fontina or parmesan.

Good Harbor Vineyards

Drew Perry was born to be a winemaker. His philosophy and approach to winemaking is to never be stuck to one philosophy or approach as mother nature never provides the same growing conditions from year to year.  He believes that you should never try to mold a wine to what you want it to be, but instead you need to work with what you are given based on the site, the variety, and the vintage growing conditions.

Drew graduated from Michigan State University in 2006 with a degree in Viticulture as well as Oenology and then moved to Napa to honed his craft with a job at Pine Ridge as a Cellar Assistant for the year before moving back to Traverse City to become an Assistant Winemaker at Left Foot Charley, where he further developed his skills until 2014. Since joining Good Harbor Vineyards in 2014, he has created iconic aromatic whites, distinctive cool climate red wines, and authentic sparkling wines from the Leelanau Peninsula. He also makes the wines for Aurora Cellars and a variety of custom clients.

Drew loves making wines that express the unique qualities of each individual vineyard site on the Leelanau Peninsula as a whole.  He strives to create a wine that expresses a specific sense of place. His mission is the creation of wines that surprise and delight the senses.

Good Harbor Vineyards has been growing grapes and producing award winning wines on the Leelanau Peninsula since 1980. Having over four decades of winemaking history has allowed the Good Harbor winemaking and viticulture team to truly refine what varieties grow best on specific sites. This experience has allowed us to continue to increase the fruit quality and in the end the overall quality of our wines. Good Harbor Vineyards was founded on the idea that people should be able to afford to drink quality wine every day. We continue to strive to grow clean and pristine fruit in the vineyard and to use that fruit to make high-quality wine at an affordable price in hopes that our patrons will be able to enjoy Good Harbor Vineyard wines on a daily basis.
