Your Northern Michigan Experience, Reimagined.

Black Star Farms
Michigan's Top-Rated Winery

Set amidst the stunning rural farmland of Old Mission and Leelanau Peninsulas, our wineries beckon you to explore the beauty of locally grown and crafted wines and spirits. A scenic 15-minute drive up M-22 from downtown leads you to our original 160-acre winery estate in Suttons Bay, or just a 5-minute drive from up Old Mission Peninsula takes you to our Old Mission Tasting Room, where we have been creating memorable experiences for our guests since 1998. Visit one of the best northern Michigan wineries!

Winter School Series: Divine Dough

Saturday, February 7 | 3:00 PM

Take your baking—and your appreciation for buttered layers—to new heights in this hands-on, fast-paced workshop. You’ll explore the art of laminated doughs by working with puff pastry, rough puff, and croissant dough, learning what sets each apart and why technique and temperature matter so much.

Discover the baker’s secrets behind lamination, folds, butter management, and egg washing while shaping croissants, assembling savory puff-pastry bites, and preparing doughs you can finish at home. Along the way, enjoy guided tips, tasting, and small sips of BSF wine as the pastries bake to golden perfection.

It’s tactile, indulgent, and designed to leave your winter baking repertoire flakier than ever!
