Farmington Winery refers to two separate wineries.
Farmington Michigan
The earlier was the former LaSalle Winery which was operated in the converted Detroit United Railway (D.U.R.) Powerhouse on Grand River Avenue and Orchard Lake Road in Farmington, Michigan USA. Production ceased in the late 1960s and the building was used primarily as a distribution center. Later the St Julian Winery purchased the LaSalle brand. The property and building are owned and operated by the J.S. White family who purchased the shuttered winery building in the mid 1970s. They restore and maintain this historical treasure. Parts of the building have been converted into office and retail space. Each Halloween the building is used by the Whites as a popular haunted house and is then known as "The Haunted Winery.
