🍂 Summer may be spoken for… a few dates remain but have you experienced Southwest Michigan in the fall?

The weekends are filling up, and while August is nearly behind us, some of my favorite tours happen when the vineyards begin to change.

🍇 Harvest season is in full swing.
🍁 The vineyards trade green for brilliant shades of gold and veraison is in full swing.
🍷 Winemakers are busy bringing in the year’s fruit, and there’s an energy you can feel in every tasting room.

If you’ve only visited wine country in the summer, you’re missing one of its most beautiful seasons.

At The Bottle Run, every tour is private, relaxed, and designed to help you discover Michigan wine beyond the tasting menu—without worrying about reservations, driving, or planning the day.

🍂 September and October dates are now booking.

🍷✨ Did you know you can elevate your Bottle Run experience with a private guided tour featuring Steve Salisbury, host of the “If Vines Could Talk” podcast?

Today, our guests chose to add Steve to their tour for an incredible deep dive into the history of Michigan wine, the evolution of our cool-climate wine region, and the stories behind the vineyards and winemakers that make Southwest Michigan so special.

It’s one thing to taste the wines—it’s another to truly understand the people, history, and passion in every glass.

“Nothing to do in Southwest Michigan?” That’s usually said by people who haven’t been here. If you’re planning your summer vacation be sure to seek out the unique gems.

Happy Pride Month! 🌈🍷✨

The season is off to a busy start!

This month, we celebrate love, authenticity, and the freedom to be yourself. Pride is about recognizing the strength, resilience, and contributions of LGBTQ+ individuals and communities while continuing to support a world where everyone is treated with dignity, respect, and equality.

As we kick off summer, we’re raising a glass to love in all its forms, meaningful connections, and the belief that everyone deserves to feel welcomed and valued exactly as they are.

Here’s to a future that is brighter, kinder, and more inclusive for all. Happy Pride Month! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Thank you to everyone who’s done a tour with The Bottle Run and supported us in Southwest Michigan. It means the world as a small business owner. If you haven’t joined us yet, we can’t wait to have you.

Happy Earth Day 🌎🍇

At The Bottle Run, everything starts with the land. Before the first grape forms, before the first pour—it’s the vineyard, the soil, and the winemakers care behind it all that make the experience.

While we’re still waiting on this season’s fruit, we’re looking back at last year’s vines and feeling that familiar excitement for what’s ahead. Another season of growth, connection, and incredible Michigan wine is right around the corner.

We’re proud to partner with vineyards that prioritize sustainability—farming with intention so these landscapes, and the wines they produce, can be enjoyed for generations to come.

If you’re ready to get outside, take in the vineyard views, and experience Southwest Michigan’s wine country in a way that’s anything but ordinary—we’d love to host you.

The season is in motion! Let’s ride. ✨🍷

“Tonight’s pairing: a glass of red and a front-row seat to history. 🍷🚀🌒
As Artemis II (Integrity) makes its journey back to Earth, we’re reminded that the best moments—whether among the stars or in the vineyard—are meant to be savored. Congrats to our astronauts for the stunning trip around the moon and a safe return home!

Have you heard of our Saddles & Sips experience?
🐴🍷✨Horseback riding + Wine tour = 😍

Ride beneath a canopy of trees, follow winding forest trails, and slow things down for a moment. This is your chance to disconnect from the noise and reconnect—with nature, with a ride, and with something a little different.

Whether you’re a horse lover or just looking for a unique way to experience Southwest Michigan, this is where it starts.

From the quiet rhythm of the trail to a guided wine tour featuring some of the region’s best pours… it’s a seamless blend of adventure and indulgence.

Not just a ride. Not just a wine tour.
An experience.
