Stable Rock Winery & Distillery
Brief Overview of the Distillery
Stable Rock Winery & Distillery is located in a renovated barn building on the Rock River in Jefferson, Wisconsin. It is a riverfront offering that combines wines and spirits with food, live music and events. Production takes place in collaboration with sister winery Lewis Station Winery in Lake Mills, while bottling is done on site. Tasting flights can be enjoyed in the tasting room, on the deck with a view, or in the converted wine cellar.
History
Stable Rock is established in a historic barn by the Rock River and presents itself as a new riverfront winery & distillery. Lewis Station Winery, the sister winery in Lake Mills, has been in operation since 2011 and serves as the production facility for Stable Rock's wines and spirits. The property where Stable Rock is located is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and a wine cellar has been converted into an event space for private and public events. Branding and interior design draw on Jefferson's German history, which is reflected in both the food concept and furnishings.
Ingredients and Production
Stable Rock combines local bottling in Jefferson with larger-scale production at the sister winery's facility in Lake Mills. All wines and spirits are bottled on site, while production and larger-scale production take place in Lake Mills. The site offers tasting flights as a way to present its different wines and spirits, and visits can take place in the tasting room, on the deck with river views, or in the wine cellar. There are no technical specifications in the material regarding malt, grain varieties, fermentation times, or distillation equipment.
Aging and Barrel Types
There are no details about barrels, aging durations, or barrel types in the reviewed material. The communications focus on bottling on-site and production in collaboration with Lewis Station Winery rather than concrete information about maturation.
Whiskies
The communications highlight a selection of wines and spirits offered via tasting flights and for sale, as well as award-winning wines from the sister winery. The focus is on the experience—tastings, cocktails and the possibility to purchase wines and spirits for pickup or shipping—but there is no public, named list of individual whiskies or aging expressions on the reviewed pages.

Philosophy and Craftsmanship
