Meet The Team

Mike Williams

Mike is the Owner of the Winery at Versailles. What began as a basement hobby years ago has turned into three wineries across two states, 75 employees, and more than 200,000 gallons of wine being produced every year. Mike's passion and drive, as well as his blood, sweat, and tears have gone into making the winery what it is today. His lifelong motto—"do well (make a good product), do good (work to give back to our communities), and have fun"—is our driving mission to do this day.

Carol Williams

Married to R. Mike Williams for 45 years, Carol’s position in the company has changed over time. When the first winery, in Wilcox, PA, was opened she managed the books and did some design and retail work. As the business grew, Carol left her full time position with a local company to be the retail manager at The Winery at Wilcox. After 8 years, her husband then opened a second winery, here in Versailles, Ohio. The couple moved to the Versailles property on State Route 47 in 2001 and the new winery opened the following year. Carol has been the HR manager for the corporation and is the Marketing Manager here in Versailles. During the early years of her marriage to Mike, the couple lived in Augsburg Germany, where she attended City Colleges of Chicago, and studied marketing and business administration. While there, she also worked in the US Army Library, where she found books on the Wine Districts of Germany. She and husband Mike began visiting German wineries and this began their love affair with wine. While being a wife, and business partner in The Winery at Wilcox, Inc., Carol still finds time for her 2 children, Jamie and Lisa. Son Jamie is now a partner and VP of Operations at the Wilcox location. Daughter Lisa joined the family business in 2011 as Retail/Marketing Manager in Versailles. Carol retired in 2013. Her beloved grandchildren Gregg( wife Beth), Brittany Leigh, Brittney Elizabeth, Rudy, and Lucy, also take a big place in her heart. And now add to that 4 precious great grands, Jackson, Jordan, Henry, and Everley. Today Carol rides her horse, loves to garden, raise unusual chickens, and helps her daughter with horse rescue. Carol currently owns two horses, one of which is a rescue. She is active in her church, Bible Fellowship, where she and Mike head up the Welcome Center and 2nd Cup ministry, is active in the Women’s Prayer Group, and also volunteers at The Brethren Retirement Community.
