SLATE RUN VINEYARD

Slate Run Vineyard is a small farm winery that was opened in 1997 by Keith and Leslie Pritchard. Keith, an avid amateur winemaker since 1981, started planting grapes in 1985 to support his experimental winemaking pursuits. Quickly realizing that he planted too many grapes, Keith started selling them to other amateur winemakers and small wineries. By 1994, facing aging, burnout, and a wife that wanted to see him, Keith came to the realization that opening a winery would allow him to utilize all the skills and education that he developed previously in life... Slate Run Vineyard Winery is a traditional style artisan winegrower that grows grapes and produces wine in a manner different than nearly any other winery in Ohio and elsewhere. All wines are 100% Ohio fruit and I only source apples from Hugus Orchards and Concord from another Ohio vineyard. As local as possible.
