A celebration of wine and food in Northwest Ohio celebrating fine wine, great food, and offering shopping, music, and fun.
The festival expects more than 1000 attendees for this first time during the fall ‘Crush’ season and the beautiful weather in our great state during this time of year.

Vendors will be offering a wide range of shopping fun.
