Butler Winery

Butler Winery is a family-owned winery located in the Indiana Uplands AVA of southern Indiana, near Bloomington. Established in 1983 by Jim and Susan Butler, the winery has been producing award-winning wines from Indiana-grown grapes for over three decades. The Butlers are known for their commitment to showcasing the unique terroir and flavors of Southern Indiana's wine region. They have played a significant role in establishing the Indiana wine industry, with Jim serving as president of the Indiana Wine Grape Council and advocating for the creation of the Uplands AVA. This designation allows wineries using grapes grown within the area to label their wines "Estate Bottled." The winery offers direct shipping to 37 states through Vinoshipper and hosts various events, including live music performances, trivia nights, and wine club pickups. Visitors can also explore the surrounding vineyards, which were planted in 1992 and became the primary production site for the winery in 1999.
