Visit Debonne Winery

Debonne Winery has a long history in Ohio. The land was originally a fruit farm purchased back in 1916 and was expanded to a vineyard in the late 1960’s. In 1971, the family started their journey as winemakers. They quickly established world class wine standards in the Lake Erie and Grand River Valley regions. In 1972, Debonne Vineyards was officially founded when the wine making facility and chalet was constructed.

There are over 175 acres of vines and Debonne Winery produces over 85,000 gallons of wine each year. Debonne Winery is BEST known for its Ice Wine and Riesling. 

Debonne Winery is open year round. If you visit in the summer time or during warmer months, you will find lots of seating in their expanded outdoor area. They usually have live entertainment outside and have an outdoor food service option. You can relax in a chair, picnic table or on the grass of the nearby hill, all while enjoying some good wine, good food and fun entertainment.

If you visit Debonne Winery during the colder months, you will find ample seating areas indoors. They also have entertainment indoors as well during the winter months.  The chalet is full of windows, so if you are lucky enough to visit Debonne Winery on a snowy day like we did, you can relax and enjoy the views! 

Debonne Winery is open each day of the week with varying hours. Please check their official website for hours of operation. 

There are options to tour Debonne Winery. If you have a group of 25 or more, you can schedule a Debonne Winery tour in advance.  There are two winery tour packages to choose from, which include the tour, samples of wine, cheese, crackers, etc.  If you have non-wine drinkers, grape juice is available to you. Debonne Winery also provides juice or soda to the bus drivers. Please note that if the tour group seems already intoxicated, Debonne Winery has the right to deny the group entry to the winery.
