Nebraska WineriesWelcome to our Nebraska Wineries Page, Nebraska's oldest winery was founded in 1994, and about twenty commercial wineries operate across the state.

Calvert and Sheridan combined to form Auburn in 1882, in part to have the voting power to wrestle the county seat away from Brownville, Nebraska, a village located nine miles east.
