One of Breitenbach's most popular wines is the medal winning 'First Crush', a semi-sweet and tart wine produced from native grapes.

Established in 2009 and owned by Ron and Mike Birchak, the winery is named after Jesse Halliday, an early entrepreneur who owned several taverns and a grist mill in Lake Milton in the late 1700s. The idea of establishing a winery began at Debonne Vineyards in Madison, Ohio, the location that supplies and delivers wine to this establishment. With wine labels named after prominent and local historical figures, the location offers a variety of sweet to dry red and white wines and mead (honey wine).

Constructed from two 19^th-century barns moved from Harrisburg and Fowler, the owners were determined to keep a number of the original structural details such as the exposed timbers and the roof cupolas. Amenities such as a bar and lighted stage modernized the space for winery guests.

Situated on a hill with picturesque views of the rural countryside of Trumbull County and constructed from two reclaimed barns, this location opened its doors in 2015. Inspired by the success of other area wineries, Randy and Carolyn Wyand developed a plan to establish a vineyard and winery on property that they had owned and enjoyed for over twenty-five years. Planted on the site are several popular cold-hardy grape varieties such as Gewürztraminer, Riesling, Merlot, and Chardonnay. The winery offers a mix of sweet to dry wine and the 5,500 square-foot barn is available for a variety of special events.

Located in the scenic southwestern corner of Portage County, the Glaus family converted 40 acres of farm land into a winery and vineyard and opened its doors in 1987. Proper soil, the right microclimate, and frost protection provided the family with the best land in the area to produce high-end American, hybrid, and vinifera wine. The winery closed in 2002.

The late Dr. Kent Glaus established Portage Hills Vineyard with his parents and brother in 1987. His love of teaching and education eventually led him to the university level where he was the founding Director of the Enology and Viticulture program at Kent State University at Ashtabula.

Founded in 1980 by Andrew Wineberg on the property of his parents, the winery offers a number of outdoor and indoor events, large tasting areas, an outdoor deck, and picnic tables providing views of a rolling landscape of trees, vineyards and open space areas. The first 12 acres of vineyard included a mix of Cayuga White, Seyval, Vignoles, Dechaunac, Chancellor, Leon Millot, and Vidal grapes.

In 2002, long-time vineyard manager Andy Troutman and his family acquired the winery and quickly expanded production and the vineyard acreage. Today much of the original hillside vineyards have been replanted with European grape varieties and the annual case production is around 10,000 cases. The Troutman family also owns the Troutman Vineyards winery in Wooster that specializes solely in estate and locally-grown wines.
