We are
Compass Hill Vineyard
We take wine seriously, so every decision we make in the vineyard focuses on improving the quality of our fruit to result in the best wines possible.
Family Owned & OperatedBuilding from the ground up
Compass Hill Vineyard started as a dream in 2010 and is passionately cared for by the Larsen family. With the help of our friends and family, we planted our first vines in 2015. We couldn’t do this without their support, and we love sharing in this experience with those closest to us.
Award Winning2019 Iowa Vineyard of the Year
Compass Hill Vineyard was awarded the 2019 Iowa Vineyard of the Year as voted on by members of the Iowa Wine Growers Association. We are honored to be recognized by our peers in the Iowa wine industry, and we look forward to helping shape our industry in the future.
