The Story of Our Name
Rolling Forks Vineyards
Our name is inspired by Rolling Forks Township in Pope County, Minnesota, located just south of our vineyards and winery. The township earned its name from the gently rolling prairies and sculpted hills near the Chippewa River—a landscape that mirrors the natural beauty surrounding us. While we’re located in Glenwood Township, we share a deep connection to that spirit, reflected in the sweeping views of Lake Minnewaska that make this place so special.
