English Estate Winery is housed in a Classic American barn building with a 40 foot hay loft built by the winemaker's grandfather in 1915. The Craftsman-style Manor House was built in 1917. Over the years side sheds were added to the barn building to store potatoes and hay, and in the 1950's the concrete front buildings were added to house a dairy which operated until the early 1970's. Today the structure houses the winery, wine storage and a tasting room decorated in a Tuscan style. In front of the main barn is another tasting room which was originally the Pump House for a windmill above.
