From an African Vineyard to a Minnesota Winery
In 1983, in the rolling hills of an African vineyard, a couple of dreams began to sprout. Owners Timothy and Therese Tulloch became engaged to be married and immediately planned to one day own a vineyard. Between then and when the cold-hardy grapes became available, Timothy owned and operated European Roasterie while Therese owned and operated The Next Chapter Bookstore. In 2007, their dreams of a Minnesota vineyard came true when Timothy, Therese, and their four children helped plant and nurture 6 acres of vines. Starting her own next chapter, daughter Jackie opened the tasting room in 2014, began hosting weddings at the winery in 2015, and continues to grow the family business with husband Jeff. Their dream? To savor the moment. To savor family, love, and of course, delicious wine.
Karibu Shamba, welcome to our vineyard and winery.

Jacki and her staff made my son and daughter in laws wedding day perfect. They were so friendly and always made us feel at home. The venue was beautiful besides. We couldn’t have asked for a location more perfect.

Went there with three friends and, we’re not quite sure what we did, but surely didn’t feel welcoming. Ordered a meat and cheese plate with our first drink order - asked about it with our second order, and we were told it was backed up. Seeing people come in after us and getting their trays, and others who actually ordered hot items that also came in after us. Finally asked a third time after about an hour and 45 minutes before it finally came out - a paper plate with a few thin pieces of cheese and some meat. Other options out there - will not go back.

Absolutely wonderful spot for everything from weddings and events, to a simple girls night. I have the pleasure of experiencing the winery both as a wedding photographer and as a frequent guest, and I can't say enough good things. Wonderful people who truly care about their clientele and do things the right way - with their patrons in mind. The wine is delicious, pricing is very reasonable, and the winery is beautiful - especially in the summer. Highly recommend.

We were so lucky to find this fantastic venue to host our Club’s Holiday Party at. From working with the owner to make our plans, to the lovely bar keeps who were so fun, the service was above and beyond anything I’ve worked with before. This group went out of their way to make our event an outstanding night and every person who attended enjoyed themselves. If you are looking for 6 star service at a five star location, Next Chapter Winery is the place to choose!

My husband and I got married at Next Chapter Winery this past September - and if I could give them ten stars I would! Jackie the manager was SO sweet and SO easy to work with. She was more than accommodating for any of our requests, timely responds to emails, and is always welcoming whenever we wanted to drop by! Our day went perfectly - I didn't have a day or coordinator or wedding planner and I feel like Jackie stepped in to help throughout the day to help things flow as well as they did. Our guests loved the ambiance of the winery and barrel room and how it was a larger venue but felt intimate during ceremony, dinner, and reception due to the great set-up. Our pictures turned out amazing with the winery as the backdrop - and the guests loved the wine as well! We look forward to spending many anniversaries and other occasions re-visiting Next Chapter Winery!

My friend got married over the weekend and for the price it cost for the space my expectations were a bit higher. Attention to detail is lacking as well as cleanliness. The tablecloths were very wrinkly, there were old plastic cups under the flooded patio, random stacked benches in the front entrance, the bridal suite was so musty the groom had to run out for air freshner, old dirty dusters behind the door, ladybugs and centipedes all over the floors and ceilings, and the list continues. 3 stars because this place seems like a small family owned business and has so much potential!

Stopped in to check this place out. Overall good wine. We only order a couple of glasses vs. doing a tasting. Order a Zin and Cab both were good. The service was slow but, it too was a holiday weekend. The patio area outside is large but, could use some up keeping. Propane tank in clear view of a fire pit. The sitting area could be so much better if cleaned up.

We had such a great time here! My husband and I had a little weekend getaway, kid free, so what better place to go than to a winery! Not being from the area, we looked a few places up and Next Chapter popped up a couple of times. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. They were setting up for a wedding, so we didn’t see the barrel house, but the tasting room was great! Getting to sit outside, they have a nice outdoor area, and looking at the vines while sipping some delicious wine just made our weekend!

I love Next Chapter Winery!!! A friend lives close and told me about them a few years ago. I live in Wisconsin (about an hour and twenty minutes away), but I still visit several times a year. The grounds are lovely. The wine is delicious and smooth. My absolute favorite is the Chardonnay, then perhaps Muscat (made from Muscato grapes but not sweet!), and then Dashing Groom, though I can't say that I've found a wine they make that I don't like! And that being said, their grounds are dog-friendly, and my dogs LOVE to go there. Our local dog club actually has an event there twice a year, and they are wonderful to us! All those that work are friendly and kind. No hint of snobbishness at this winery! I also have sampled many of the food items they offer, and they are also really great! I would suggest a visit. 🙂

It rained before our ceremony and the staff was so amazing and helped pull benches inside and we did it inside instead. Jackie is such a great woman and working with her during the planning process was easy and effortless. Everything tied together so well and we really had a fantastic day!! We highly recommend this venue for any special occasion. Thank you to all of the staff at next chapter winery who made our day so special!!

We had our wedding here over the weekend and it was absolutely perfect. Jackie was incredible in answering all of our questions and helping us plan! The staff were so helpful with the setup and take down and the bartenders kept our guests happy all night. Most venues we spoke to had crazy restrictions about how to set up or what vendors to use so every wedding turns out the same. The NCW staff genuinely cares about making your wedding day what you want it to be and we feel so lucky to have chosen them. Our friends and family are still raving about the venue!! Thank you for everything!

Their wine is amazing! In my opinion, it's the best wine made in MN. The new tasting barn is quaint and decorated in country sheek, which is really appealing to me. The owners are often near, and are so friendly. My wife and I will be back, soon!

So long overdue for this review on Next Chapter. Working with Jackie and her Father and on site staff was a fantastic experience and I would argue with anyone that ever indicates otherwise. We worked with her for a year in advance with wedding plans and she was as excited the day that we first met her and Timothy as the day, a year later, of the wedding. It is all sincerity at the Winery and it has never let up. Impressed with all of the thoughts, ideas, related-experience-sharing, Implementation of thoughts for the wedding. Jackie and staff had a solution for every question we had, every corner we turned and any obstacle! No glitches whatsoever. I truly feel that they even controlled the weather in the end!Jackie had an ongoing relationship with Lakeside restaurant, which is in the immediate vicinity, so we had our grooms dinner and wedding reception catered by them, and it made it so much easier to make a success of all food, as it never had a chance to cool off or be short of anything, as the Lakeside staff ran back and forth between The Winery and Lakeside for anything we needed. I would also recommend them.I cannot recommend The Winery and Jackie and her Father highly enough. Timothy was even making coffee the night of the wedding reception, when we ran out. All of them deserve multiple pats on the back and best wishes for a long, successful future. We will do our best to contribute to it!If anyone ever needs reaffirmation about planning a wedding at The Winery, please feel free to get in touch. I will be glad to discuss in detail!Thanks Jackie and staff at The Winery! We appreciate each of you.Anne Becker

Came to try new wines. We didn't get waited on. I went to the bar to ask for a menu. Was brought one five minutes later. And the waitress did not come back. Me and my friends ended up leaving without even a taste. �

A very nice selection of wine to choose from for wine tasting. Liked that you could just pick how many you wanted for $1 each instead of having to do a certain amount. The pizza was also good.

We found this winery from a groupon for dinner for 2 in the barrel room, and enjoyed it so much we have been back regularly. The wine is delicious esp the cranberry burst, and staff so friendly. Yesterday we joined in on the grape harvest and stomp for a truly unique adventure, I highly recommend Next Chapter!

Just a short drive from Northfield, MN. My wife & I used a Groupon for 2 glasses & a bottle of reserve wine with no problem. Was allowed to have two servings of wine in place of getting two glasses to take home.Tasty wines, wonderful setting, friendly staff. Will bring some friends with the next time we visit.

I took my husband here for the unlimited barrel tasting event as a birthday present. We had a wonderful evening and delicious dinner. As it is early in the season, we were 2 of only 7 guests, but that's part of what made it a fun adventure. It made the tour feel very personal. Thieving the wine was so much fun and allowed us to sample 8 different wines! Definitely a great evening and worth the hour drive!

We were given the gift their wine, cheese and chocolate truffle package for Christmas. Since we'd never been there before we decided to do a tasting of 8 wines as well. Loved all 8! WONDERFUL cheese from Mankato and our hostess was super friendly and very knowledgeable! We left with a baker's dozen of wine and the promise that we'd be back. And the truffles, yummmmmmmmmmm....
