A Montana Story

As is common with the best of adventures, ours too began with a pioneering spirit. At the time, it was really as simple as that. We began to wonder: What would it look like to pursue a passion for life, creativity, and community in support of the Montana grape and wine industry in its pioneering stages?

So in 2023, we embarked on our story by planting three acres of cold-hardy grapes at what became known as the Elk Park Vineyard in the Upper Flathead Valley through a land-lease partnership with White Raven Winery in Columbia Falls. We are currently preparing for a first harvest in the fall of 2026.

As we work in the years ahead to establish vineyards and develop our winemaking here in Northwest Montana, we invite you to reach out for updates. And check in on us often while you consider your own adventures, exploring where the pioneering spirit that calls from the yet unknown may take you.

Here at Elusive Goose Vineyards, this culture is firmly rooted in keeping it simple: We bring Humanity, Harmony, Craft, and Community to the Montana grape and wine industry. These Values come to life through the everyday things we hope you experience more of as we commit to and live them out.
