A Taste of the
Lake Erie Shore

Nestled on Catawba Avenue in the heart of Put-in-Bay, our company has long been a destination for visitors seeking an authentic taste of the Lake Erie grape belt — one of the oldest and most productive viticultural regions in the United States.

The Lake Erie region's unique microclimate, moderated by the lake itself, produces grapes with an intensity of flavor that's hard to match anywhere else. Catawba, Concord, and other native varieties thrive here, and we take pride in transforming those harvests into juices and preserves that capture the essence of the season.

Whether you're a lifelong resident, a summer visitor, or simply passing through on the ferry, we invite you to stop by, sample something fresh, and take home a piece of the bay.

"The grape juice here is unlike anything I've tasted — so much more vibrant and real than anything from the grocery store back home. We make it a point to stop every time we visit the island."
