Michigan might not be the first place you think of for wine, but it should be. Thanks to Lake Michigan’s tempering effect, the state has carved out a serious niche for cool-climate grapes like Riesling, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Cabernet Franc.

This updated map shows Michigan’s key AVAs, most of which hug the lake’s edge to soak up every bit of warmth. With a mix of classic grapes and experimental cold-hardy varieties, Michigan wine is on the rise, with producers embracing crisp whites, elegant reds, and everything in between.
