Ciccone Vineyard and Winery

Ciccone Vineyard & Winery, located on Michigan’s scenic Leelanau Peninsula, is a charming, family-run winery known for its beautiful views and welcoming atmosphere. Founded in 1995 by Silvio “Tony” Ciccone—Madonna’s father—the vineyard was built from the ground up with a strong focus on tradition and craftsmanship. Today, his children carry on the legacy: Mario oversees the vines, Paula creates the wines, and Jennifer manages the business. Their teamwork has resulted in a collection of award-winning wines that reflect the family’s dedication and deep connection to the land.

Guests can enjoy wine tastings in a rustic, European-style tasting room or relax outdoors under a pergola that overlooks the vineyard and Grand Traverse Bay. During the summer, the winery comes alive with its “Live From the Hilltop” concert series, offering live music in a peaceful, vineyard setting. Ciccone Vineyard is also a popular wedding venue, offering romantic ceremonies among the vines and receptions in a beautifully restored barn. Whether you're there for the wine, the music, or the view, it's a place that invites you to slow down and savor the moment.
