Mallow Run Winery to Close After Over 20 Years
Mallow Run Winery, a staple of Bargersville, Indiana, is set to close its winery operations this December after more than two decades in business. The announcement was made by the Richardson family, who have operated the business since its inception.
Richardson Family Steps Away from the Wine Business
The Richardson family, who established and ran Mallow Run Winery, released a statement describing the decision as a difficult one. In a social media post, they shared, “For the last two decades, the Richardson family has poured their heart and soul into Mallow Run Winery. Now, they have made the difficult decision to step away from the wine business.”
Impressive Achievements and Community Impact
Reflecting on their journey, the family described the winery’s operations as a “wild ride.” Over the years, Mallow Run has sold more than two million bottles of wine and contributed over $1 million to various causes, giving back to the community through wine, parties, baskets, and proceeds.
Closure Details and Continued Offerings
The winery side of the business, including the popular Tasting Room, will close in December. To manage the transition, Mallow Run will be selling down its current wine inventory. Wines will continue to be available for purchase as long as supplies last, including through the shipping platform VinoShipper.
Sycamore Event Center Remains Open
While the winery and tasting room operations are coming to an end, the Sycamore Event Center will stay open. The venue will continue to host weddings, professional events, fundraisers, and other celebrations. Scheduled events such as Trivia and Pancakes with Santa will proceed as planned, providing continuity for those who rely on the center for gatherings and community activities.
Gratitude and a Fond Farewell
In their announcement, the Richardson family expressed gratitude to customers and supporters, stating, “It has been our honor to have created a place where people can come together to relax and enjoy the beauty of the place that we call HOME.”
The planned closure marks the end of an era for the Bargersville business that played a significant role in the local wine scene and community events. Wine lovers interested in securing bottles from Mallow Run should act quickly, as sales will continue only while inventory remains.
