Ferrante Winery and Ristorante is located in Harpersfield Township and has been owned by the Ferrante family since 1937.
The family first opened a winery in the Collinwood area of Cleveland. In the 1970’s Pete and Josephine Ferrante built a state-of-the-art winemaking facility with 40 acres of vineyards in the current location where guests can visit. The farm is located in an ideal location for growing grapes. It is located in the federally recognized American Viticultural Area in the heart of the Grand River Valley. Today five out of eight of Pete and Josephine’s children continue to run the facility.
Also on site is the Ristorante, offering special occasion lunch and dinner options as well as a regular lunch and dinner menu that provides the ultimate dining experience.
Along with the amazing vineyards and the Ristorante they are also devoted to experimenting with innovative techniques and technology to expand their winemaking abilities and keep their wines cutting edge. They also offer live music, events, a wine club, and you can even purchase their wine online.
Visit their website to learn more, schedule a dinner, shop for wine, and see their schedule of events. You can also visit them on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

If you or your business is interested in becoming a group member or sponsor of Ashtabula County Farm Bureau events and programming visit our website or email us.
By being a group sponsor of your county Farm Bureau you help us continue to protect the future of agriculture, promote Ohio agriculture and support local youth!
To grow a network and gain perspective and knowledge in the industry through personal and professional development has been invaluable. Every day I learn and grow.
The issue of property taxation remains as one of the biggest challenges our members face today. Ensuring agricultural property is valued for its agricultural potential and not development is critical to the continued success of Ohio agriculture.
Farm Bureau is what really got the word out. It’s been one of their goals to get this done.
I could not have done it without the resources I have found through Farm Bureau.
Because we are younger farmers just starting out, Farm Bureau has a lot of good opportunities and resources to help us grow in the future.
Through the Select Partner program, we became educated in farm insurance and weren't just selling policies. It became more and more clear why farmers need an advocate like Ohio Farm Bureau.
