 đ Harvest Magic Awaits in Ohio Wine Country đ·
Autumn is one of the most spectacular times to experience Ohio Wine Country. As the leaves turn vibrant hues of red, gold, and orange, the vineyards come alive with the excitement of harvest seasonâand there’s no better time to sip, savor, and explore.
Located along the shores of Lake Erie in Northeast Ohio, this region offers a picture-perfect blend of fall beauty, small-town charm, and award-winning wines. Whether you’re looking for a relaxing weekend getaway or a scenic day trip, harvest season promises a taste of something truly special.
đ Savor the Season at the Source
Wineries throughout the Grand River Valley and beyond invite you to celebrate the bounty of the harvest. Sip newly released wines, enjoy vineyard tours, and meet the winemakers who bring Ohioâs vintages to life. From warm mulled reds to crisp whites and rosĂ©s, the flavors of fall are waiting in every glass.
Many wineries host special harvest-themed events during this time, like the Harvest Crush Tour & Tasting events at DebonnĂ© Vineyards & Grand River Cellars, or the Autumn Glow Lantern Festival at South River Winery. Most wineries offer live music and seasonal menus, perfect for cozying up on a patio and enjoy the crisp fall air. Donât forget, more than two dozen of our 30+ area wineries have dog-friendly patios.
đ Discover Ohioâs Covered Bridge Capital
Ashtabula County is home to 19 covered bridges, the most of any county in the state. These charming structures offer more than a scenic drive, theyâre a step back in time.
From the longest covered bridge in the United States (the Smolen-Gulf Bridge) to the shortest (the Liberty Street Bridge). Many visitors pair their wine tasting journey with a bridge-hopping adventure, making for a perfect fall itinerary.
