Recently named Wisconsin’s best wine bar by Lux Life Magazine, Stone’s Throw Winery is the winner of six medals in international competitions. While over 2,500 miles from Napa Valley, CA, Stone’s Throw Winery uses California grapes that have been grown in ideal conditions. They are then shipped to Door County in a refrigerated truck and immediately pressed for freshness. Small batches keep the wine unique and perfected. When visiting the winery, you’ll be able to sit outside, play bocce ball, and join in a tasting. Two specific tastings are available: the signature series tasting, where you choose five wines, or the winemaker select series tasting, where you choose six wines.

For those wanting to do some shopping, there are many stores and galleries around Egg Harbor. Off the Wheel Pottery is a gallery held within two older buildings: a barn and a granary. A third building, newly built, houses the studio, where guests, like resident artist Renee Schwaller, create their pottery. Guests can come to see the local artists’ work, which has been handmade.

The gallery is only open to visitors from May through October.

White Cliff Nature Preserve is 103 acres of protected land in Egg Harbor. There is a trail that loops around the preserve, allowing guests the opportunity to walk through without disrupting the wildlife and shrubbery in the protected areas. By remaining on the path, guests will not interfere with animals establishing habitats or spread invasive species from shoes. White Cliff Nature Preserve welcomes all pets but asks that they remain on a leash and are picked up after. Whit Cliff reserves a “leave no trace” policy, where visitors do not bring items into the preserve nor take them out.

Parador Tapas & Sangria is the place to go when you and your friends are hungry for some authentic Spanish food and drinks. Parador opened its doors in 2011and has since provided a friendly comfortable atmosphere for enjoying small plates and fun with friends. In America, small plates shared among friends may seem like a foreign idea, but in Spain, tapas allow friends to gather around a table, enjoying many small appetizers and treats, and Parador brings that to Wisconsin. Try a traditional cheese plate, served with artisanal cheeses, raisin rosemary crackers, and honeycomb. Or try a modern tapas like lobster bombas or a flatbread.

© Shipwrecked Brew Pub

In 1882, the building that now houses Shipwrecked Brew Pub was built. In 2017, a fire destroyed the old building, but when it was rebuilt in 2018, the customer was kept in mind. Rather than old rooms for an inn upstairs, the second story is a dining room featuring water views. With a history that harkens to Al Capone, there are also rumors of ghosts who gently haunt the halls of the restaurant, believed to be victims of Capone’s. Shipwrecked is a brewery that creates microbrews, and a local favorite is the fried cheese curds served with garlic chili ketchup.

In 1983, the original owners of Chocolate Chicken decided that they wanted to share their love of fudge with the locals and visitors to Door County. Today, guests can stop in the shop to pick up some coffee, shipped in from all around the world, including South India, Nicaragua, El Salvador, and Indonesia. Though the coffee is great, it’s the chocolate that shines in this store. Combining chocolate and cherries is one of the great innovations at Chocolate Chicken since cherries are a local crop. On top of chocolates, caramels, cherry sauce, and coffee, be sure to check out the mugs and shirts that bare the Chocolate Chicken crowned chicken logo.
