Now, over decade later, we are still family owned and operated. Those young teenagers that were crawling in the wine tanks, riding old pallets on the forklift, and working in the family business (one of them so he could date the daughter), are now slowly taking over the business. One of those young teenagers eventually became Utah’s first professional woman winemaker. In addition to the original family members, we are now fortunate to have a team of wonderful people working with us and we are watching them bring their own kids into the wine business. From our hard work in those early years, we have paved the way for new wineries to open in southern Utah. We were once the only winery, but now we are the oldest and largest winery in southern Utah among a growing number of other wineries. When we started there were no vineyards in southern Utah, today there are over 60 acres of vineyard and more on the way. We created the Utah Wine Festival that gets bigger and better every year and we also started the Utah Wine Trail to help encourage wine lovers to see all the amazing wineries located in southern Utah. The family that is I/G Winery is proud to be a part of growing not only a winery, but an entire wine industry. It is a badge we wear with honor.
