Growing up in northeast Ohio I have been to a number of these wineries and I have to tell ya that Ohio grows delicious grapes.
A few of my  favorites that I frequent when I trek up north:
- Laurello Vineyards – the Pinot Noir is outstanding! If Larry’s there, tell him Michele recommended their winery. Probably my favorite Ohio winery! A family business they have great wine, great food and a beautiful fireplace to sip some vino in the fall and winter months.
- Ferrante Winery – if you ever get up north, I recommend taking in a glass of wine outside on the patio among the grape vines. Atmosphere, incredible! I like their Cabernet Franc-Grand River Valley, but they won a gold medal for their Pinot Grigio.
- Debonne Winery – try their Vidal Blanc Ice Wine. It’s a cold, sweet, desert wine but very tasty. Sometimes wineries up north are subject to early frost and freeze. This could be tragedy turned out to be a great discovery.
