What does a Gold Medal taste like? How about five of them?
Join us at Michigan by the Bottle – Lake Orion for a very special evening with Brys Estate winemaker Coenraad Stassen as we celebrate an incredible lineup of award-winning Michigan wines.
Throughout the evening, Coenraad will share the stories, winemaking and inspiration behind each bottle as we taste five Brys Estate wines that earned Gold or Double Gold medals in prestigious 2026 wine competitions.
