About
Maison la Belle Vie is a 4.5-acre vineyard that has some of the highest quality wines in Colorado. Planted in 2002, Maison la Belle Vie introduced their first vintages in 2006 including a Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Rosé, and Muscat – a dessert wine that is traditional in regions of France. Small batches of Reserve wines such as Merlot, Syrah, Pinot Noir and Petit Verdot as well as the famous Vin de Peche are available. The Vin de Peche is a wine made from a Muscat grape and peaches, a delightful recipe that has been handed down through the generations since the late 1800s. Our Vin de Noir is a handcrafted walnut wine fortified and aged for six years. A new addition to Maison la Belle Vie is a variety of white wines, including our White Blend. If you’re looking for an amazing food and wine experience, ask about our eatery with delicious food served on our beautiful patio. Featuring seasonal lunches & specialty dinners, including our famous Charcuterie board.

- David WHouston, Texas46 contributionsWonderful Sunday Afternoon in PalisadeWhile in Ouray, we were told by a couple we visited with to be sure a visit Palisade we while in Glenwood Springs, we spent a Sunday afternoon touring the wineries and fruit stands. Having grown up in Central Texas near Fredericksburg. When we arrived in the Palisade area, it reminded me of Fredericksburg since it is also an area rich in Peach Orchards and Wineries. Maison la Belle was the last of the three wineries that we visited and we loved this one. The wine is great and the lady that waited on us was wonderful. We enjoyed the wine so much that we bought several bottles of each. I stongly recommend a visit to Palisade and to this winery!Visited September 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten October 11, 2023
- Barbara T7 contributionsDelightful dining after wine tourThis was our first time dining at Maison at the conclusion of our wine tasting in Palisade. Jeremy kindly stayed and cooked for us as we were running a few minutes late from our scheduled time. Monica took great care of us. The scenery was beautiful and the weather was perfect despite the high temperatures during the day. We highly recommend the Waldorf Chicken Salad sandwich! We shared the sausage plate, baked Brie and Mediterranean quesadillas and enjoyed it all. I was hesitant about Mediterranean Quesadillas, (what in the world is that???) and was delighted once I tasted! We ordered the suggested wine pairings which were an excellent recommendation. Overall delightful experience!!Visited July 2024Traveled with friendsWritten July 3, 2024

My wife and I stopped by for wine tasting, but currently, they are not doing tastings due to Covid-19. If you want to taste a wine, you must have something to eat. We decided to sit down in their outside eating area (tasting room is closed) and got a sandwich and salad to split. We got charged an extra $5 because we split our sandwich. Of course that turned us off, since we were really there to taste wine and not eat.
Their outside area is very nice if you want to sit outside for lunch. Most of the area is in the shade so you should be able to escape the sun. The sandwich and salad was good. Their Rose we got ordered was nothing special.
I’d give them another try if they open up for wine tasting.

My wife and I had visited here a few years prior and liked it so we were looking forward to a repeat experience only to find a quaint wedding venue disguised as a winery. My $12 flight contained four reds that were pretty indistinguishable from each other. To rub salt in the wound, I was blind sided with $2 per water serving.

This was a cute winery but don't come here if you don't want to get yelled at by the owner.
Nicholas G : please do better if you want to NOT embarrass your customers. I didn't mean to touch your grapes, if you don't want people doing that then please have signs up instead of yelling at your customers and embarrassing them in front of other customers. You are very lucky that your staff, (Aaron) overall made your customers experience a little bit better but as a owner, we expected you to have more courtesy towards people who come support your business. I am highly disappointed.
Just in my humble opinion....I will not support a business that treats their customers like trash.

The waitress (owner) came across in a very rude manner. I understand u have to wait and we were willing as we were celebrating our birthdays. My friends waited a long time to get their glass of wine, which did not come right away with our appetizer. then I made it clear we wanted to order lunch. An hour later, we still had not gotten our lunch order in. We got frustrated and left. Do not go there for lunch!

We joined the wine club after a lunch special...very bad mistake.
The bottles were a strange mix averaging $40 with fees and shipping,
Shipping in CO summer is stupidity. Today ours arrived warm.
We cancelled immediately....avoid this winery at all costs.

It’s been several years since I have reviewed Maison. It’s really has become the go to destination in Palisade for lunch and wine. Such a beautiful facility and grounds. Only outside dining right now in the covid environment but still a great experience. The charcuterie plate here really is famous. It’s fantastic and even better with a glass of the merlot blend. There are also fresh homemade desserts and pastries. All are excellent. Maison has really continued to up their game and it’s a must visit while in Palisade for the best wine on the Western Slope.

Went out with family on a Saturday night on the last day of our visit. Lovely outdoor setting and wonderful service.
Had the Merlot Flight to try some of their wines and the appetizer plate we all shared. Be sure to try the appetizer cheese with wine. Outstanding!
Friday and Saturday nights are burger nights. I had the regular burger with blue cheese and pasta salad. Spouse had the portabello burger and we exchanged halves. Both were very good.
We will definitely make a regular stop here when visit again in a couple of months as I really want to sample more of their wines!

Maison La Belle had a lot of potential. It was a cute winery that came highly recommended. We waited a full hour with a hostess that we couldn’t hear at the bench directly next to the hostess stand. After watching multiple people miss their name we were called. Upon being sat out order were taken, but after a half hour we hadn’t received our food. After signaling our waitress we finally got our charcuterie. The food was delicious, but the service was a mess. If there is ANY wait I would not reccomend this place.
