OUR STORY

Wine has been produced in Ohio since 1823 when Nicholas Longworth planted the first Alexander and Isabella grapes in the Ohio River Valley. In 1825, Longworth planted the first Catawba grapes in Ohio. Others soon planted Catawba in new vineyards throughout the state and by 1860, Catawba was the most important grape variety in Ohio. At this time, Ohio produced more wine than any other state in the country, and Cincinnati was the most important city in the national wine trade. As in many other states, Prohibition in the United States destroyed the Ohio wine industry, which has struggled to recover. Currently, Ohio is ranked as one of the top 10 wine producers in the United States.
​
We strive to become one of the top producers of this delicious libation in not only the state of Ohio, but also in North America . We have worked diligently to differentiate ourselves from other wine producers by focusing not just on the grape, but the Apple as well. The Apple is one of the most versatile of fruits . It's been making a huge splash in the world of breweries and we thought , why not do the same in the world of vintners.

BA LIFESTYLE
