There's nothing quite like spending quality time with your best girlfriends, creating cherished memories and escaping the demands of everyday life. If you're seeking an idyllic destination that combines the joy of wine tasting with the beauty of fresh flowers, look no further than Southwest Michigan. This enchanting region offers a delightful blend of vineyards dotted along scenic wine trails and charming flower farms bursting with colors and fragrances! This is a one day summer itinerary perfect for a girls day. Let's go girls!


Stop one

📍 111 W Shawnee Rd, Baroda, MI 49101


Dablon Vineyards & Winery

Our first stop of the day was Dablon. It was a first time for me and I was blown away by its beauty. Let's start with the important stuff. Deblon participates in the wine club! This means you can always enjoy your favorite wines even if you come from out of town.

  • Receive a 20% discount off all wines.

  • Enjoy ½ off wine tastings + invite up to two guests (Wine Club Member must be present for wine tastings).

  • Receive first access to our premier vintage wines and new release wines.

  • Attend exclusive events set for only Wine Club Members.

  • Receive a 50% discount off a 12-bottle case of wine during your birthday month.

Deblon Vineyard and Winery has a rich history that dates back several decades. Founded by the Deblon family, the winery has been dedicated to crafting premium wines that showcase the unique terroir of the region. Passed down through generations, their passion for winemaking and commitment to quality has shaped Deblon into the esteemed establishment it is today.

As far as wine goes we enjoyed a bottle of 2020 sweet Pinot Gris. I highly recommend it if you like a sweeter wine.  Take a leisurely stroll through the vineyard, basking in the beauty of the sun-drenched landscape, and marvel at the artistry that goes into growing the finest grapes.

Stop 2

📍9962 Holden Road, Baroda, MI. 49101

 

The Grace Effect Farm


What is the Grace Effect?

This little farm was adorable! The farm's cozy shop, adorned with bouquets of freshly cut flowers, showcases their exquisite collection of candles in various shapes, sizes, and enchanting fragrances. This was my first time at a U pick farm and what a wonderful experience!

Stop 3

📍 9151 First Street, Baroda, MI 49101


Public House

This is by far one of my favorite lunch spots. Michigan, is a well-known destination for wine and spirits enthusiasts. Public House is a part of the Round Barn Estate, which also includes a winery, brewery, and distillery. The atmosphere is typically laid-back and inviting, providing a pleasant setting to enjoy beverages and food with friends and family. My favorite go to for lunch is the BBQ chicken pizza. We also tried a pepperoni pizza. While waiting our pizzas we enjoyed pretzel bites & Kölsch Beer Cheese served with Hop Dealer IPA jalapeño honey mustard. This is a MUST order. I eagerly anticipate the day I'll once again raise my glass at the Round Barn and Public House, toasting to life's simple joys in the company of great food and even greater friends.


Stop 4

📍 11126 Lange Road, Bridgman, MI


Lavender Bliss Flower Farm

As you step foot into Lavender Bliss Flower Farm you'll be instantly transported to a magical wonderland of lavender fields stretching as far as the eye can see. The vibrant purple hues dancing in the breeze are an irresistible invitation for endless photo opportunities. Bring your camera or phone along, for every corner of this dreamy farm is a canvas waiting to be captured. After a delightful photoshoot in the lavender fields, treat yourself to a refreshing glass of their signature lavender lemonade. This unique twist on a classic drink combines the zesty tang of freshly squeezed lemons with the soothing essence of lavender!


As we come to the last and final stop on our enchanting wine and bloom tour, we find ourselves at Round Barn Winery & Estate!


Stop 5

📍 10983 Hills Road, Baroda, MI 49101


Round Barn Winery & Estate

After a scorching day of adventure, our much-anticipated treat awaited us—delicious wine slushies to cool off and unwind. Beyond its renowned winery this enchanting destination offers the perfect setting for a memorable day of relaxation with friends.  The day had been a perfect blend of relaxation, friendship, and the simple joys of life. We left knowing that Round Barn Estates would always welcome us back for more food and drinks.
