Glyn Mawr Winery
Located in Mount Vernon, Iowa, we have made a one-of-kind experience for you to enjoy. It's a bit of history, classic touches, and a feeling of everything you remember loving years ago. We are true to our roots, which is to make high quality wines with Iowa grapes, and the sustainability of our local economy.

We are vine to table, and our whole hearts go into this business, and into the story we are creating. Our vintage-industrial style lower level provides a classy and cozy space perfect for your private event! Email us to inquire about private bookings.
Services
Our story started in 2009 with 1100 grapevines on 2 1/2 acres. We took those vines and turned them into over 21,000 lbs. of grapes each summer, and over 9,000 bottles of wine each year. Our family then spent almost two years restoring a historic building on Main Street in Mount Vernon, Iowa, to become our winery and tasting room.

Nice family owned winery with local craft beer. Very friendly atmosphere and rustic chic decor. You can buy snacks ie. Popcorn, nuts and savory nibbles to go along with your beverage of choice. Assorted seasonal home decor and gift items for sale upstairs and social seating downstairs. Cozy outdoor patio in the rear! Stop in with your friends

2nd time stopping in; first time staying to enjoy the atmosphere while sipping on my wine! This was a perfect date night spot - calm, peaceful, and delectable wines! My husband was able to enjoy draft beer - in which there was a "tap-takeover." We loved the ability to order from any restaurant- we ended up getting food from Big's bbq and enjoyed it on the back patio. I loved their St. Pepin white wine - perfect for warm summer evenings! I also tried their wine punch which was soooo good it could be dangerous! Our friends who tagged along with us also really liked this place and we

Such a great place to go! Excellent wine selection, family owned, and BYOF (grap a pie across the street!). Love the decor (for purchase 😉) and the atmosphere. We've walked in twice expecting a quiet night and walked away meeting new people and having a fantastic time.

What a fun place to catch up with some friends! Met my sis-in-laws for an evening away and Glyn Mawr certainly didn't disappoint. We sampled a few of our favorites and settled on our typical go-to's. I decided to go with a slushy, despite the frigid temps outside. We also chose to sit in the basement, an intimate cellar-esque vibe. The current owners did a beautiful job renovating the space.

There are some local snacky foods to munch on. There is not a "kitchen" to order from, but you are welcome to order from neighboring restaurants, many which will deliver to you.

Beautiful interior with wonderful Iowa goodies and a great patio. We ate food from the food truck during the Chalk the Walk festival and enjoyed wine with our meal. What a great addition to Mt. Vernon! We will be back.

Always looking to try new places, this one appeared on my radar. A small store front on main street Mt. Vernon, it's a nice addition to the downtown. They have wine, antiques. Some local beers-in cans, and an assortment of snacks and salads. The ambiance is somewhat like walking into grandma's house. Comfortable and cozy. They do have a patio that was not an option on The day hi visited due to the weather and I understand they have a lower level available for events.
The staff was friendly and helpful with a selection of their wines. I've liked their wines for some time,
