Not Your Typical Winery

​Wonderful wine, cozy tasting room, charming country setting, vineyard views. We've got your winery visitation expectations covered. And then some.

* Estate wine, which means we use our own grapes (not all wineries do). 
*  Our own draft, craft ​​beer.
*  ​Grape powder and chocolate made with our grape powder by world-famous Seroogy’s Chocolates in Green Bay.
*  Fine dining events.
*  Glamping (scroll below).​    
* We also are a licensed trout hatchery. We grow grapes and trout (we’re not named Trout Springs for nothing.) Makes sense--trout are the wine of fish, after all. (Watch the video about our hatchery produced by the University of Wisconsin Sea Grant Institute here.)

​Behind the Scenes and Behind the Counter
Unlike some establishments where hired hands dispense samples, at Trout Springs husband-and-wife Steve and Andrea DeBaker--the owners and winemakers--are the only ones doing the pouring. Learn about the winery and the delectable wine you're tasting directly from the experts! ​    

Glamping--It's More Romantic than it Sounds!

Picture
​​     For those romantics and nature lovers who think camping is cool but not for you—no bed, no hotel, no amenities, no way—we've got something that might make happy campers out of you: glamour camping, or glamping as it's called.
     And we recently upped our glamping game. We replaced our tent with a spacious 240-square-foot, three-seasons cabin. Our Little Cabin in the Vineyard is perched on a  platform and outfitted with a queen-size bed and furniture, refrigerator, microwave, and lights. The personal porta-potty is the extent of roughing it. Meals are optional, wine essential.

We Turned the Fox Valley into Napa Valley
(and Were Named Winery of the Year for That)

     Trout Springs Winery is the birthplace of the Wisconsin Ledge. That’s a real big deal in the wine world.
     Long story short, we grow great grapes because our area’s temperate climate rivals that of some of the best grape-growing regions on earth. Like Napa Valley. The Federal Government officially identifies prime grape-producing locations as American Viticultural Areas (AVA).
     We figured wine lovers should know about the pedigree of our grapes. So, with proof and paperwork in hand, we went to the Fed. In the winter of 2005 just after opening the doors at TSW, Steve J. DeBaker, owner and winemaker, petitioned the Federal Government to establish just under 2.5-million acres to be designated a prime grape-growing region based upon the Niagara Escarpment.  After several years of numerous evaluations, more paperwork, and persistence, a petition was passed in 2012 establishing the Wisconsin Ledge, a bona fide AVA—just like Napa Valley—in the land of Lambeau, beer, and booyah.
​     And for that we were named the 2014 Winery of The Year by the Wisconsin Grape Growers Association.​ (Read more about the Wisconsin Ledge here.)

​Wedding and Event ​Space Available
​Add that extra touch of romance to your wedding. Put some pizzazz in your next special event, business luncheon, corporate retreat, or seminar.
     We offer custom packages ranging from  full dinners to receptions. As for weddings, our charming vineyard makes a great romantic setting! For more information, click ​here.
