Perfect Anniversary trip October 2025
Nicholas and Holly have truly created a paradise. Their winery is a perfect blend of elegance, warmth, and passion. From the moment you arrive, you can feel their genuine dedication—not only to making exceptional wines but also taking great care of the property. We recommend staying in the “La Loft” located on sight at the Winery. They provide bikes to respectfully borrow, which is perfect for exploring beautiful Palisade.
The property itself is stunning: peaceful, beautifully maintained, and surrounded by an atmosphere that makes you want to linger just a little longer with every glass. Nicholas and Holly are experts in both hospitality and winemaking; their knowledge and enthusiasm shine through in every tasting and conversation.
Their Winery is the only in Palisade with a full restaurant, polished off with a beautiful event venue and outdoor space.
The staff mirrors their same excellence—remarkably professional, attentive, and genuinely kind. Every detail, from the wine flights to the service, feels intentional and refined.
Whether you’re a seasoned oenophile or just beginning your wine journey, this place is the perfect escape. A visit here doesn’t just taste good—it feels good."

"This winery is very nice. We sat outside and had lunch even though its November
The food was very good. I loved the meat pies and salad.
They also had wine tasting that was really nice
I highly recommend this place."
Cindy Schoonover
"Beautiful afternoon with friends, a flight of red wines for them to sample, a yummy charcuterie board to share, and perfect weather on the patio at Maison La Belle. Only suggestion is to add something to cover the flight glasses (cheesecloth?muslin?) to keep fruit flies out of the wine!"
