2 Lads Winery to Open in May; Circa Estate Winery this Summer

Sandra Silfven writes in the Detroit News about 2 Lads Winery, set to open May 3 on the Old Mission Peninsula. The winery is "edgy in everything from architecture to wines, where the emphasis will be on reds and bubblies," she writes. The "two lads" are Chris Baldyga and winemaker Cornel Olivier, who are joined by Baldyga's father-in-law, Dick Quartel, as partners in the venture.

And on the Leelanau Peninsula, Circa Estate Winery is slated to open this summer. Owners David and Margaret Bell moved to Leland Township from the Chicago area 16 years ago to pursue their dream of opening a winery. See Silfven's write-up in the Detroit News.
