Matt Mollet
Co-Director - 2007 Art & Wine Fest

Owner - Lau-Nae Winery

 Lau-Nae Winery was established in 1999 by Mike and Donna Mollet who had a vision   of establishing a great winery in Southern Illinois .  They thought the winery would be a perfect retirement venture.  After 7 years of hard work and dedication, they proudly passed down their dream to their son Matt and good friend, Brett Sintzel.  After Brett and Matt started on their new journey they realized they needed a woman's touch and Brett's wife, Robyn was quickly recruited.

    A tradition of making fine wine has been passed down to this new generation.  The winery now includes a classic tasting room intricately laced with beautiful artwork procured by Donna as well as an updated Martini Bar designed by Robyn.  Their combined talents have resulted in a well-established winery with many new ideas and projects in the works, which will be sure to surprise and delight their customers.

    Matt, Brett and Robyn have over ten years of combined wine experience.  They take great pride in customer satisfaction.  The one thing you can be sure of is that Lau-Nae Winery will continue to provide the same exceptional quality and service as in the past and to which their valued customers have become accustomed.
