Maiden Rock Winery & Cidery

Maiden Rock Winery & Cidery is a small, family-owned business in western Wisconsin, near the quaint village of Stockholm. Started by Herdie Baisden & Carol Wiersma who, by 2008, had received all of the necessary permits and licenses to be able to open for business. This was not their first venture, as Carol had established and was running The Good Apple, while Herdie developed their apple orchard – Maiden Rock Apples – and was learning how to make wine and cider. The Good Apple sold “everything apples” – from wine, cider, and beer to apple décor, housewares, jams, jellies, and preserves as well as other apple-related products.
