Our Story


Fireside Winery is a family business focused on creating warm memories with good wine and good company.

How We Got Started

Fireside Winery was born from a desire to embrace the “life is too short” philosophy, a long-term passion for wine, an interest in diversifying our family farm business, and a wish to pass on our farm heritage to our children.

Located in eastern Iowa, the winery is an addition to the Wyant family farm that has been producing Iowa staples like corn and soybeans for five generations.

Behind the Name

The name Fireside was chosen as a reflection of Wyant family traditions — the warmth of family, friendships, and great conversations. We invite you to make Fireside wines a part of your family traditions.
