Junto Wine
Rating 4.8 (average of 163 opinions)
Less than 20 minutes West of downtown Lincoln, Junto is a winery & vineyard located in the rolling Garland Hills.
In 1727 at the age of only 21 years old, Benjamin Franklin formed a club with a half-dozen acquaintances who held a wide variety of occupations, interests and beliefs. He called the group the Junto (pronounced ‘Jun-toe’). Ben formed the group in the interest of mutual improvement for each member, as well as for the benefit of the community as a whole.They gathered on Friday's, drank wine, and discussed a variety of topics ranging from Self-Improvement to Politics to Philosophy. But it wasn’t just for socializing. From ideas fostered in their meetings Ben went on to help found the University of Pennsylvania, the first lending library in the colonies, and the first voluntary fire-department in Philadelphia, among other things.
Ben would continue forming similar groups throughout his successful and well-publicized life. But it all started with his first group; the Junto.
We invite you to join us at the Junto where we encourage guests to do the same as Ben- enjoy good wine and good company. We’ll also have a library, a large garden, and a modern tasting room facility with spectacular views of the surrounding vineyard and the rolling Garland Hills.
