Domaine Berrien Cellars is situated on an 80 acre farm located in Berrien County, Michigan, in the heart of scenic Lake Michigan Shore Wine Country. Our vineyard development began in 1992 when Thomas & Abigail Fricke purchased the property, which was all planted in tart cherry trees at the time.

Baroda Founders Wine Cellar is in the heart of southwest Michigan, one of the best grape growing regions of the world. With Lake Michigan to the west, the climate is ideal for growing bountiful harvests of fruit.

Our family has grown and vinified grapes for over 25 years. Our passion is evolving our family's legacy with a reverance to tradition, the desire to explore new ideas, and the "Free Run" to find our own style of winemaking.
