Oliver Winery

Oliver Winery grew from the hobby of Indiana University law professor William Oliver. After the Indiana Small Winery Act passed in 1971, the winery opened in 1972, and sales took off with Camelot Mead. It calls itself Indiana's oldest and largest winery.

Visitors can wander the gardens and waterfall and sample wines in the Main Tasting Room, which was built in 1997. There is no fee to visit. The tasting room offers more than 45 wines by the bottle, by the glass or as a tasting. Current lines include Oliver Ciderworks, Real Fruit Moscato and the Spritz Collection.

Oliver became 100% employee-owned in 2006, and in 2021 it began a partnership with NexPhase Capital. Travel + Leisure has named it one of the top wineries to visit in the U.S. The site also has a page for private events.

The winery lists open daily hours that change by season, so check its site before you go.
