On September 29^th Pen-Link Ltd hosted guests from all over the country at Glacial Till Vineyard for their annual CIA conference!  After hours of training at the embassy suites in Lincoln the guests were escorted to GTV for a relaxing evening in the vineyard.  Guests enjoyed good food, music, and wine in the vineyard.  You can host your event at GTV too!

Glacial Till Vineyards First Annual Harvest Festival was a success!  There was a 100% attendance of those who registered online!  We appreciate the support from everyone who came out to join in the harvest festivities and made this a great event.  For those of you who couldn’t make it, you missed a great day in the vineyard with good food, great wine, and outstanding music.

In the spring of 2003, we planted the first vines on our property located southeast of Lincoln, Nebraska, in Otoe County, near the township of Palmyra. The vines took root in our terrior, known as glacial till and have been growing strong ever since. Glacial till is a fertile, rocky soil that was deposited thousands of years ago when the glaciers that covered North America receded. Terrior not only describes the soil, it is also reflected in the orientation of the land, micro climate, viticulture practices and wine making process.

Our vineyard and winery, Glacial Till Vineyard & Winery, takes its name from our soil. Additionally, our terrior can further be defined as a north sloping hillside, providing a cooling effect on the grapes during the hot dry summer; and both water and cold air draining to creeks and ponds located nearby at lower elevations. All of these factors add up to what we call the terrior of Glacial Till Vineyard & Winery, as well as our mission, “crafting unique and quality wines from the ground up.”
