MAIN Arrow to Wine Wines Arrow to Wines North America North America Arrow to American Wines USA Arrow to Wines of Ohio Ohio

Ohio WineriesOhio's long winemaking tradition is usually traced back to the Ohio River Valley in the early 1800's when Catawba grapes were transformed into light, semi-sweet wines that were popular (and remain so) throughout the region.

Later, a new Ohio growing area emerged in the Lake Erie Islands with German settlers bringing with them the knowledge and skills of European winemaking.

By the turn of the century, thousands of gallons of wine were being produced by dozens of area wineries. Vineyards were soon planted along the entire southern shore, a narrow strip of shoreline now part of the Lake Erie Grape Belt.

The tradition continues today with award-winning wines being produced by a thriving industry. Above, the Slate Run Vineyard in Canal Winchester, Ohio.
