History
Derick and Julianne Dahlen and family planted vines at their vacation home in Stockholm, Wisconsin over 10 years ago. It was not long after that the dream of Villa Bellezza was born--as a place for families, friends, and the community to gather.
Specialties
Our classical Mediterranean style winery complex welcomes visitors daily. Located in Pepin, WI, we're just a short day-trip from most Twin Cities metro locations, yet you'll feel as though you have been transported a world away! The winery name - Bellezza, the Italian word for beauty - is inspired by the stunning river bluff drive to the winery along the Mississippi's historic Great River Road. The winery complex was designed in a Mediterranean style with several stucco and stone buildings, including a 250+ person event center, surrounding a central piazza -- much like in a town square somewhere in Italy. Our tasting room is open 7 days a week all year round, except for Christmas Day and Easter Sunday. Reservations are not required, however, if you have a large group (14 or more), please call ahead to let us know that you are coming. We invite you to explore our selection of award winning wines, all crafted on-site with locally grown grapes. Visitors are welcome to enjoy the piazza. Relax with a bottle of wine and a small plate while enjoying the surroundings, listening to the fountain and people watching.
