Potter Wines
Years ago, jalapeno wine was Von's brainchild. So we began our business journey with a vision of a wine that would raise eyebrows, pep-up palettes and make meals sizzle. Fast forward to present day, where jalapeno wine has become a kitchen staple for many. Our wines have made people re-think the average margarita and recreate homemade ice cream recipes.

We like to think of our customers as risk takers, decision makers, rule breakers, cocktail shakers and chipotle chocolate cake bakers. We are thrilled to share our crazy idea with others and we hope that it will inspire you to create and explore your own wild dreams. Whether we are making Syrah, Riesling, or concocting our signature Jalapeno Lemonade, we strive to leave our innovative thumbprint on everything we produce.

The Swanky Devil Syrah is back in it's 3rd iteration, and bolder, and more beautiful than ever! Don't wait to get yours, these handsome fellas never last long. This Riesling takes center stage with a juxtaposition of lime zest and Meyer Lemon. It is well supported by an ensemble of floral notes and complemented by an encore of bright acidity.
Looking for a delicious and unique Boise Wine Tasting? Nestled along the Boise River in Garden City, is our Winery and Tasting room. Crafted from locally grown grapes from Idaho Vineyards, Potter Wines offers award-winning vintages and a one-of-a-kind Jalapeno Wine line-up. This is a wine tasting experience you will not forget!

Ryan is an essential part of the experience. Absolutely try the mulled jalapeño wine.. if you can get it, better buy two because it's seasonal and you'll have to wait a whole year to buy more.

My friend and I went wine tasting, and I'm so glad we started here! Von and Ryan were fun and friendly, gave us tons of information about the wines we were trying, and created a relaxed environment to enjoy our wine in. Definitely recommend doing a wine tasting, picking up gifts for friends or family, or trying one of their events! The wine was delicious, and the jalapeño wine and lemonade were truly unique.

They have the best Bloody Mary in not only the country, but the world! I dream of it before I arrive and after I leave! Their giggle juice is also top notch. The owners are so kind, generous and welcoming! Definitely a true gem of the treasure valley area! A++++++++

Had a great time here. The owner, Von, is hilarious and gave us a great selection of tastings. Try the sparkling jalapeño lemonade wine, it was so good! I love the roaring 20's vibe. The staff was very welcoming and friendly.

Loved this place and all the employees. They offer wine tasting for a $10.00 fee but if you purchase a bottle it is waived. They have a jalapeño lemonade wine which was fantastic. They also have traditional wines both red and white. I went home with way to much product.

My wife and I love their wines! The tasting room is so welcoming, and Ryan is very knowledgeable and friendly. Vonn always makes sure to say "Hi", and visits with us, when he can. They are so much more than their Jalapeño wines.

Delightful staff. I really enjoyed the traditional wines, and my friends LOVED the unique jalapeño wines and lemonades. A great place to stop in! Also, grab a Molly’s Mills Garlic Seasoning while you are in!
Thanks Von!

We love Potter Wines! During the holiday season, our go to warm drink is the Mulled Jalapeno Wine. Swanky Devil Red is another go to favorite. Crystal and Von are two of the nicest people you could ever meet and treat us like family every time we go to the tasting room!

I went here for a painting party. It was a great location for the party. I read the wine menu before going and I was excited to try the jalapeno wine. It definitely didn't disappoint! I love spicy. My first taste was a mixture of jalapeno wine with lemonade. I didn't really like the sweetness, so I tried the jalapeno wine straight.... Loved it!! I left with 3 bottles.
I am definitely going back to buy wine from Von. If there's another Paint n' Sip here, I will definitely try to attend.

I first saw Potter Wines at the Saturday Market and tried a sample of the jalapeño lemonade wine and it was so good and unique! Later on, I went with a friend to the tasting room and we were pleasantly surprised by how cute and cozy it is. We both tried their red blends and loved them. I definitely think they have some of the best wine out of all of the Garden City wineries and a big bonus is their great location. Highly recommend!

Super cute and perfect place to try wine. Ryan was awesome, we all did the tastings and couldn't believe how great the wine was. Ryan was knowledgeable about the wines and super friendly. Will be back if I'm in Idaho again. Try the jalapeño wines, you will not be disappointed and if you like a extra kick try the cooking wines. Loved the decor!

My husband and I have enjoyed the Potter Wine's Jalapeño Wine Lemonade at local restaurants. We were surprised to learn the lemonade was an Idaho wine! Better yet, the winery and it's tasting room are on Chinden in Garden City, close to the Fairgrounds.

Today we made the tasting room our destination because I needed some hostess gifts. What a delight. I did a full tasting of their regular wines and all of their pepper infused wines. Notable: the red wine blend, the Arnold Palmer Jalapeño wine, and the Jalapeño wine. That said, the Jalapeño Wine Lemonade remains my favorite.

This place is still pretty new as a tasting room but they make some really amazing wines! The Swanky Devil is an amazing Syrah, very well balanced and delicious. They also do some really crazy things like jalapeno wine and jalapeno wine lemonade. If you have not tried this stuff it is mind bending! No liquor license but they make some wine based cocktails that are so good you won't miss the hard alcohol. The Hell Mary and the Jewel Mule are very tasty. Service was very fast and friendly and the bartender made me feel right at home immediately. The day I was there the winemaker was there as

The Swanky Devil is hands down my favorite red wine of all time!!! And if you haven't tried Jalapeno Lemonade, you need to get down there ASAP! The tasting room is beautifully decorated, the staff is hilarious and makes you feel at home! This is a must try for wine. You won't be disappointed!

Potter Wines are unique and delicious!! There is nothing like their Jalapeno wines that I have found and their seasonal Mulled Wine is TO DIE FOR! They just opened a new Tasting room on Chinden in Garden City and it is Super Cool! Very interesting spot with an amazing selection.
