Arundel Cellars & Brewing Co.
We are comfortably nestled among the largest grape growing region East of the Rockies. Beautiful Lake Erie provides a much appreciated balance in climate, keeping us warm enough in the fall allowing our grapes the extra time they need to ripen. Our sandy soil plays an important role in the flavors of our wines as well as providing ideal drainage for the vines.
