Soine Vineyards

We had a great time visiting here today. Sandy was a great hostess. The wines were wonderful. I typically go for the dry reds however after the tasting I enjoyed a glass of their semi sweet fusion. It was a little sweet with a crisp finish. I also enjoyed the Duove and the Cayuga. I plan to visit again!

This is another true Ohio Winery. All the grapes/​juice for their wine is grown right on the property. You pass the wines as your drive up the driveway, making for a grand entrance. Makes you feel like your in a Wine County, not Ohio. We on a whim went to this winery in the middle of their annual chili cook off. It made for a fun, inviting and bustling scene. We also has a good number of chili to try. We sampled found a few we liked. We ended up buying the Cayuga White, which is a off dry white wine. The cranberry was especially good mulled, but I did not care for it on its own.
I will have to visit this winery again, at a time where I can enjoy the vines and learn more about the wines when the winemakers are not so busy with other things.

Hubs and I enjoyed the band and the wine. Lots of regulars gives it a «cheers» feel … Hey Norm!

All locally grown grapes make up the wines here, and you’ll pass them on your way to the tasting room. The owners/​staff are lovely people and the prices for both tasting and bottles are very reasonable. The wine itself could use some work, but not terrible. Overall the experience was very pleasurable.

Not all Ohio wineries and Ohio wines are created equal. Some simply order up «juice» (made from grapes grown elsewhere) or even an entire kit from a distributor and then simply mix and ferment. .. .if you do those last steps in Ohio, I guess you can call it an «Ohio wine.»
Soine Vineyards serves up what I would consider to be true Ohio Wine — mostly made from grapes grown right there in Powell. Now, I know what you’re thinking, «ugh, some more sickly sweet Ohio wine.» Oh contraire, Soine has an entire array of wines to please any palate (I love dry reds and greatly enjoyed the Duove).
Another word on vineyards — many that do grow their own grapes in Ohio close down for the winter. Soine, on the other hand, stays open, making it the ideal destination for one of those «what are we going to do» cabin fever, wintery weekends. Soine also always has some interesting events on the calendar (a chili cook off. .. chocolate cook off, etc. etc.) The people who run the place are also super nice and provide excellent service and conversation (if you desire) while you sip your wine.
The wife and I love the fact that we stumbled upon Soine on one of our «what are we doing today» Saturdays. From the wine, to the service — it was a definite five star experience at a working vineyard right here in our own back yard!

Cute family owned winery. Very friendly:) They have about 12 wines. My favorite so far is the Autumn Harvest. Decently priced.
