They did it again!!! Brys Estate Vineyard & Winery gave our group of 13 the most amazing experience on the wine wagon tour. Erick and Paul were informative and humorous as our guides providing the history of Walter and Eileen and how Brys came to be and explaining the process from the growing the grapes to bottling the wines. Forever our favorite wines and winery we all thank you for another fantastic time!???

Our absolute FAVORITE winery around Traverse City - so happy we found it! Incredible options for a tasting flight at a very reasonable price. The staff was so friendly and welcoming! Great views of the entire vineyard from the tasting room and the lawn, as well as a “Secret Garden” with lavender fields to roam through! We hope to visit again soon!

We had an opportunity to enjoy the wine Wagon tour. We absolutely loved it! Our group was 14 guests and all the guests liked every single wine we were served. How can you not have one bad wine.

We recently enjoyed the Seated Wine Country Experience on the deck at Brys Estate Vineyard & Winery and had a pleasant visit. We appreciated that the staff accommodated our traffic delay by adjusting our reservation time. The service was friendly, the wines were excellent, the food paired well with the tasting, and the views made for a relaxing afternoon. Our only disappointment came at the end when we were informed another reservation was scheduled for our table and asked to settle our tab and leave. While we understand the need to honor reservations, it was surprising since we had planned to take our time enjoying the experience. If reservations have a time limit, it would be helpful to communicate that during booking or upon arrival so guests can plan accordingly and avoid feeling rushed. Had we known about the time constraint, we would have adjusted our pace and likely ordered more wine. Despite that, we enjoyed our visit and appreciate the quality of the wine, food, service, and setting that Brys Estate offers.

Everytime we visit TC, we have to stop by Brys Estate ? Not only to drink there delicious sauvignon blanc but also to bring home there amazing lavendar hand sanitizer and soap! Last weekend, we even added it to my sisters Bachelorette wine tour as our first stop. We were greeted by the Manager I believe, he is always working and such a nice, friendly person! He truly makes the experience ??

My time at Brys Estate was quite nice from beginning to finish. The place looks pleasant with lots of warm wood and brick, and the staff was friendly. In fact, the host was especially welcoming and amicable. I got a tasting flight of wine and my friend and I shared the Mediterranean platter. The platter had lots of good veggies, bread, and dips, and it made for a nice light snack. The wine was excellent, and I especially liked the rosé. There’s no reason to skip this winery if you’re visiting the vineyards of the Old Mission Peninsula, and it shouldn’t disappoint.

Beautiful and classy winery. My husband and I enjoyed our visit, and our waiter Ernest was outstanding and incredibly attentive. The wine was the best we had on the entire peninsula! The Frosé was by far the show stopper in my opinion, however my husband loved the warm spiked apple cider! Our only complaint was we intended to go to wineries to be in a sophisticated adult environment, and we were rather surprised when we had a family with children and a baby carrier seated by us in the tasting room. It definitely changes the atmosphere and I would have preferred the option of a separate area from children. Otherwise our entire experience was fantastic! My husband and I cannot thank Ernest enough, and still talked about the fabulous service he provided!

Very beautiful and cute spot! Visit the secret garden gift shop for an apple picking and a little gift for someone who loves lavender (popcorn, soap, candles, etc). Visit the tasting room for wine and snacks but make a reservation- it will fill up like your wine glass. There’s an outdoor patio bar too that was still open in October. So a little chilly- but you can warm up with a hot apple cider and a little fridge of cheeses and crackers.

? Brys Estate Vineyard & Winery – A Full-Sensory Experience in Wine Country This place truly has it all! From the moment we arrived, Brys Estate delivered a top-tier experience that went far beyond wine tasting. Yes, the wines are fantastic—but the real magic is in how much more they offer. You can start with a tasting and then take the tour, which gives a behind-the-scenes look at how their wines are made. The patio is stunning, with sweeping views of the vineyard, and the food menu is thoughtfully curated to pair beautifully with your wine selections. ?? Beyond wine, they also serve award-winning ciders and—fun surprise—have their own lemon zest hand sanitizer, which somehow adds to the charm. The scent is calming and refreshing. The yard space is a must-visit: it’s relaxed, scenic, and home to their wine slushy, which in my opinion is the single best thing you can try here. ? They offer premade meal options in the yard that are light yet satisfying, perfect for a casual afternoon. Whether you're planning a private event or just stopping by, the staff is warm, genuine, and clearly passionate about what they do. We left feeling refreshed, impressed, and already planning our return. Brys Estate is a gem that blends elegance, hospitality, and fun in one unforgettable visit.

This place has an amazing atmosphere! It was very peaceful, and just puts you in the center of nature. The lawn bar is perfect for good weather, and it's dog-friendly! ? A very beautiful place to grab a glass of wine and sit outdoors.
