Vintner’s Dinners are culinary adventures that pair handcrafted Maize Valley wines with a five-course homegrown meal. We carefully select each gourmet course specifically to complement our wines.
Join us on the third Thursday of every month to taste the best local flavors of the season, enhanced with thoughtful pairings. Our winemaker is on hand to describe the winemaking process, explain our menu selections and sometimes even debut new wines.
With guests seated along one long table, just like family, Vintner’s Dinners are a great way to visit old friends and meet new ones as you explore the tastes of Maize Valley. Contact us to reserve your spot at the next Vintner’s Dinner before it sells out!

Peggy Coyle & Brad Bolton
2016-09-09 19:30 - 21:30
Together, Peggy and Brad are more than the sum of their parts – at least
the parts that are still working. They entertain with blues, jazz, a little
country, and pop tunes long forgotten. They throw in some nostalgic TV
theme songs, an old radio jingle, and of course, the turkey baster.

Mike Lenz & Peggy Coyle
2016-09-11 19:30 - 21:30
Mike Lenz with his powerful guitar skills (also vocals, harmonica and stomp box) and Peggy Coyle with her powerful vocals combine for a wonderful duo of live music. They perform an entertaining mix of blues, country, and contemporary music.

Balloon Lift Off Details
2016-09-24 12:00 - 21:00, 2016-09-25 12:00 - 20:00
Rick Kohut, our BalloonMeister, will display his balloon gondola’s at about 3:30 PM so you can see what the balloonists and their guests fly in. This is a great photo opportunity especially for the children – they can get inside the basket and Mom and Dad can snap away!
Around 4:30 pm, additional pilots with their colorful hot air balloons will arrive and prepare for a possible flight from the winery between 5:15 – 6:15pm depending upon weather. Please note: Balloon inflation and launch is totally regulated by FAA guidelines and the weather. The winery has absolutely NO say as to when or if the balloons launch. In years past with good conditions, the balloons have taken off between 5:30 and 6:15 PM. If high winds or weather conditions prevent an actual flight, sometimes these very experienced pilots will inflate their balloons and remain static on the ground for additional photo opportunities for all our guests.
Interested in a balloon ride? Please contact Rick directly at 330-413-5587 or email him at rakoh77@yahoo.com for details. A balloon ride is $185.00 per person (this is discounted from the normal $225 fee). Basket space is commonly shared and a maximum number of rider slots are available on a first-contact basis.
Children under 12 years of age cannot ride; age 13-17 years must be accompanied by a parent. Payment is by cash or check only and is payable directly to your assigned pilot. Be aware that each pilot reserves the right to deny access to their aircraft to anyone who is not acceptably fit or capable of a flight… so please, if you are planning on flying, enjoy soft drinks, tea or water for a couple of hours before take-off. You will be expected to sign a pilot insurance Waiver Release of Responsibility. Each pilot attending is highly experienced and is personally selected for this event. Flights and rides are never guaranteed as each pilot is in full command of his/her aircraft and has the discretion to choose to fly or not based on the conditions.
If you do schedule a flight, you are to wear cotton clothing, tennis shoes (no sandals or flip flops), and bring a light jacket just in case it gets chilly. Don’t forget your camera as well – it is amazing what you will see from your vantage point!
Hope to see you there as it is quite a show!

Hot Air Balloon Lift Off
2016-09-24 12:00 - 22:00, 2016-09-25 12:00 - 22:00
Maize Valley’s annual Hot Air Balloon Lift off is scheduled for two days this year – Saturday September 24, and Sunday September 25, 2016. This favorite event officially kicks off the fall season at Maize Valley. Half a dozen balloons will take to the sky against the backdrop of all of our fall harvest activities. Maize Valley does not offer balloon rides, there are limited rides available through the balloonists – click here for complete details. In event of inclement weather and the balloons do not lift off, there will be no refunds given.
Take a wagon ride, navigate the corn maze, visit the animals, marvel at the pumpkin cannon and so much more. Take a break from the outdoor fun with a visit to our winery & NEW Craft Brewery. Sip, sample and taste the many wines and beers we offer. With all of our fall fun, your family will be entertained for hours.
Full concessions including hot dogs, hamburgers, grilled Rueben’s and more, plenty of beverages and of course wine and beer tasting will be offered all day. No outside food or beverages permitted.
The fall activities area opens at noon and closes at 10 p.m. (last admission at 9 pm). Regular admission rates apply – $10 ages 2 & up, under 2 is free.
Insiders tip:
Plan to arrive in the early afternoon for best parking. This also allows for plenty of time to take in ALL that Maize Valley has to offer before the balloons actually lift off in the late afternoon (which will be somewhere between 4 & 6 pm depending on the weather).
