The Rich History of Our Winery

Built in the 1920's during Oklahoma's original oil boom, by John D. Rockefeller's oil company and later acquired by J. Paul Getty, this 8,000 sq. ft. historic school building has been restored and transformed into Oklahoma's premier winery and vineyard.

 

The Tidal School building was originally constructed to serve the educational needs of Rockefeller's local workforce.  It is an excellent example of the Federal Style of architecture and just one of the many great sites to see and only a short drive off America's Mother Road...Route 66.

 

Tidal School Vineyards and Winery owners have accomplished a half-million dollar renovation of the historic Tidal School building, located two miles south of Drumright on Highway 16. The new winery, opened April 22nd 2004, and features a tasting room and gift shop, banquet room, and outdoor patio overlooking the vineyard and gazebo.

“I want to congratulate the Tidal School Vineyards and Winery upon the completion of its two-year renovation. This project marks a win-win for both the Vineyards and all of Oklahoma. Located inside the historic Tidal School building, this beautiful facility provides adults with a unique wine-tasting experience and is certain to be a wonderful tourist destination for both Oklahomans and out-of-state residents.”

-- Governor Brad Henry
