Our Story
In 1999 after a day of wine tasting in Mudgee, a wine town in New South Wales Australia, we watched a local winery family celebrate their patriarch’s birthday. We had enjoyed their winery earlier in the day and now here were multiple generations celebrating at the same restaurant we were eating at. That night inspired a vision, for us to create the same experience back in Maine, a vineyard and winery, a restaurant and special event place and mostly to be a winery family too. In 2017 we began that quest. We hope you are able to enjoy your day and evenings with us with your friends and family. Thank you for sharing in our vision, Brenda and Tony
Through the years

Spectacular Celebrations
Whatever your gathering is for, WillowsAwake is a beautiful place for family, friends and acquaintances of all ages to come together. The pines, rolling hills of the vineyard, the clean lines of the farm style buildings, all unite to provide an idyllic agricultural location to relax, stroll and most of all celebrate. Events include a three peak sailcloth tent for large events or smaller interior event rooms, tables, chairs, place settings, dance floor and onsite catering along with overnight accomodations at the winemakers house. We excel at weddings, anniversaries, milestone birthdays, celebrations of life, as well as company picnics and non-profit fundraisers.
