Great Reason to Visit Stillwater 3/22/2011

My friends and I love visiting Northern Vineyards when it gets warm out so we can enjoy the beautiful deck that overlooks the St. Croix River valley. We now try to go on Sundays so we can enjoy great live music. They don't even mind if you bring your own picnic! The staff is always very friendly and offers a lot of wine knowledge with each purchase. I always recommend my friends to have their bachelorette parties there because it's a great place to start before exploring the Stillwater nightlife! more

Friendly Atmosphere, Delicious Wines 2/16/2011

My boyfriend and I went to Northern Vineyards for a wine tasting and had an amazing time. The staff was knowledgeable and excited to have us try their wines. (If you ask, they even let you try some not on the tasting list if they have it open!) We got to try 10 wines and since we bought a few bottles the tasting was free. There is a great selection of all kinds of wines- white, red, blush and dessert, so even though we have totally different tastes in wine we were both able to find quite a few we liked. We are really looking forward to coming back this summer and seeing the live music on the deck and enjoying some more wine! I would definitely recommend going to this winery for a date or for a fun time out with friends! more

Great Experience 10/11/2010

I'm not sure what happened with the others, but my fiance and I had a really great time at Northern Vineyards. We went for a wine tasting and brought a picnic to have on their deck. The tasting was of 10 wines and was complimentary if we made a purchase. Which of course we did. We bought some wines to take home. We also bought a bottle to bring up to their deck overlooking the river and enjoyed with a picnic we brought from home. The girls who were helping us were very friendly. They may not have been the most knowlegable on all wines, but definitely knew the wines that they were sampling. We had a great time and will be going back next summer when they have their live music. It's worth the trip. more

Average wines - Terrible customer service 6/21/2009

Recently, a girlfriend and I left the kids with our husbands so we could go enjoy a kid-free afternoon tasting (and possibly buying) a few bottles at this winery in Stillwater. As it turns out, I've had dental visits that were less painful and more enjoyable. The people behind the counter (two boys, one of whom was particularly condescending and just plain rude, and another who acted like he didn't want to be there) did not explain what the $5 tasting fee got us, and couldn't be bothered to pour once we paid the fee. They didn't smile, didn't try to market the wines, didn't engage in any sort of conversation with anyone at the counter. In this economy, they should've been doing backflips that we were there at all. Next time, we'll drive the extra miles and visit the St. Croix Vineyards instead, where the service is always friendly and the customers are actually appreciated. more

Poor Quality Business Owner 4/7/2008

I was part of the party of 8 that was given poor customer service from the owner himself. We are a group of women that get together twice yearly to tour wineries. We have a lot of fun doing it and certainly enjoy our wine. We are all outgoing people so you can bet that we are busy spreading the word about good places to check out as well as the bad ones (you would think he would know that word of mouth is huge). This was definitely an unfortunate experience as the owner did not have the time of day for us. Too bad he did not realize we had three cases of wine in the back of our limo already. His body language and verbal language told a complete story. He did not think we were worth wasting his time. It was very apparent as well that other customers that came in were not worth his time either based on his ""window shoppers"" comment. Starting to wonder who he thinks his customer really is? I think he has lost site of the fact that customer service and a great product are what makes someone a customer. Pros: Downtown Stillwater Cons: Poor Customer Service more

very poor customer service 4/7/2008

8 of us arrived and were given a partial tour when the owner realized we were not part of a party of 18 that had made reservations he made the comment ""great I just wasted my time"" We then went to try some of the wines and he wouldn't acknowledge us standing there or help in making suggestions and obvious he wanted us to leave. We left without making any purchases and our goal was to leave with cases. We had been to 2 other wineries that day and what a difference in service. Owner had also made the comment about window shoppers. Did not understand why we were given the cold/rude service. Pros: parking Cons: quality of service more
