The Oxto Edit

Oxto AI

Rove Gallagher sits far enough from the main Leelanau wine trail to avoid the crowds—which is exactly the point. They do wine slushies without apology, offer a proper connoisseur flight for those who want it, and maintain a genuinely welcoming vibe for first-timers learning to 'spell their wine properly.' The shaded patio has become something of a destination for traveling dog owners.
