How is Black Robes Sacramental Wine produced?


This special wine is produced with Gamay Noir grapes grown at the Vineyard at St. Joseph on Old Mission Peninsula, in partnership with, bottled and sold by Chateau Chantal. Parishioners Robert and Nadine Begin are Chateau’s founding couple.Our parish vineyards are maintained under the direction of parishioner Rick Aaron and through the active discipleship of the five Traverse City area parishes: St. Joseph, St. Francis, St. Patrick, Immaculate Conception and Christ the King. Guess what year this photo was taken. :-)

How Can I Purchase?

You may purchase this wine directly from Chateau Chantal  by visiting their winery, or click here to order. If you are interested in bulk orders, or to inquire about our sacramental wine, email us. The winery is located at 15900 Rue Devin, Traverse City, Michigan on Old Mission Peninsula (view map).  Chateau Chantal graciously donates the difference between your cost of the wine and the actual retail price back to the support of the Vineyard at St. Joseph.

Our vineyard will be included in a future issue of this book - coming soon!
