The Zimmerer family farm was established in 1926, near Huntley, Wyoming. Four generations of the Zimmerer family have worked the soil, grown crops and kept the family farm in operation. The farm has seen sugar beets, beans, alfalfa, corn and a cattle feedlot operation. With such agriculture diversity, a vineyard operation wasn't too out of the ordinary - even in Wyoming!
In 2001, the vineyard was established as part of a research project gone wild. Patrick Zimmerer was completing his college education through the University of Wyoming and completed his senior thesis project on establishing vineyards in Wyoming. After finishing his thesis, Patrick convinced his family to plant a small 300-vine vineyard on the farm. After finding the vines survived Wyoming's challenging climate, TMV went full speed ahead. TMV continued to expand its vineyard and to select grape varieties that thrive in Wyoming's climate. TMV's vineyard now spans nearly 10 acres and 10,000 vines. The vineyard is composed of cold hardy hybrid grapes that can stand all the growing challenges Wyoming has to offer. The vineyard has 12 different grape varieties including: Frontenac, Frontenac Gris, Valiant, Marcheal Foch, Elvira, and Marquette. Learn more about our vineyard sites here.
