Black Star Farms

Friday, September 16, 2011

Black Star Farms is a premier winery and estate nestled in the heart of northern Michigan’s Traverse Wine Coast.

In 1998 founding partners Kerm Campbell and Donald Coe began the transformation of  an 120-acre equestrian facility into a world class winery and agri-tourism destination, capturing the essence of the surrounding land and lakeshore. The property was named Black Star Farms after the stylized star in the marble foyer of the estate house.

“As farmers, we draw our livelihood from the fertile Michigan soil, embracing the challenges and rewards of growing premium grapes in this unique region. As winemakers, we’re privileged to capture the essence of our vineyards in every bottle, offering a distinct taste of northwest Michigan’s terroir.

“With their breathtaking landscapes, pristine waters, and ideal grape-growing conditions, the Leelanau and Old Mission Peninsulas are more than just our home—they’re where we find inspiration every day.”

Michigan native Lee Lutes has been the head winemaker at Black Star Farms since its founding in 1998.
