Stemming from a fifth-generation family dairy farm in rural Wisconsin, it was only natural for Michelle to develop a passion for food, making wine, and planting an ever-growing vineyard with French-American cold-climate grape varietals. She loves exploring globally, from quaint towns to rolling hills in wine country learning about the local culture, farmers markets, viticulture, and cuisine.
