We absolutely love this place! The location is stunning and the atmosphere is casual. Great live music on some weekends. There are places to sit under the tent or not. I'm not always a fan of MN wine, but I have never been disappointed at Javens where they lean towards the dry side. I was pleased to see wine slushie and beer options too.
Beautiful wooded setting and gorgeous covered patio that overlooks the vineyard. Very scenic.. The wines show professional winemaking ability. Staff is very friendly. The wines seem to have a similar sweet/dry scale. My friend and I got two flights so we tried all but one of the wines.There are cheeses, local salami, and snacking mixes available. No on site kitchen. Wonderful restrooms. You can really tell it's family owned.
Beautiful wooded setting and covered patio. The wines show professional winemaking ability. The only criticism is that the wines are the same level on the sweet/dry scale. I had to taste the the whites I had in order to discern any difference. My pallet was wanting a variety since semi dry is not the only type I enjoy. Javens, you have shown your ability to make real wine from real grapes. Venture out of the semi dry into the realm towards dry and sweet to appeal to more customers.
