At Van Wijk Winery, hospitality isn’t just part of the visit — it defines it. And for countless guests, that feeling begins the moment they meet Marv Goodyk, one of our longtime Tasting Room Managers whose warm greeting and easy, engaging conversation have become a hallmark of the Van Wijk experience.
Marv joined our winery family over 12 years ago, and ever since, he’s been one of the friendly faces guests look forward to seeing. Whether he’s welcoming first‑time visitors or catching up with familiar friends, Marv has a way of making every person feel at home — relaxed, seen, and part of something special.
Over the years, our guestbook has filled with heartfelt notes about Marv’s kindness, humor, and genuine love for sharing our local Van Wijk Wine. Below are words from our guests, written in our guest book, celebrating the person who helped make their visit unforgettable.
"Marv was the Best!" - Michelle S., Barbie B., Jamie S.,
