Kick off your 2026 Ohio Vineyard season with Nooch at Debonné Vineyards. Debonné is located in the heart of the Grand River Valley AVA (American Viticultural Area). The region stretches 2 miles from the center of the scenic Grand River from the mouth of the river in Fairport Harbor to Rt. 45 in Saybrook, within 14 miles inland of the shore of Lake Erie. The growing climate is unique within the larger Lake Erie AVA due to unique benefits of the lake’s thermal protection from temperature fluctuations and unique air drainage that provides frost protection within the valley. Viticulture has thrived in this region. The unique terroir and ideal growing conditions are the basis of the world-class wines produced at Debonné Vineyards.

Not a wine drinker, no problem. Double Wing Brewing Co. is the beer division of Debonné Vineyards. Quality craft beers, made in our onsite brewing facility. The beer bar inside the winery at Debonné Vineyards features 12 taps with signature Double Wing brews and seasonal selections that vary. Our nitro tap is available for smooth, creamy Imperial Stout.

FOOD and DRINK

We are very fortunate to have The Island Grind on site, with not only signature coffee and lemonade drinks, but also a selection of homemade snacks, small plates and sandwiches. Two food trucks will be visiting Middle Bass for the fest on July 11th. Blowing Smoke BBQ will be making their mouthwatering BBQ the star of the show. They are known for their pulled pork, but their pulled chicken, mac & cheese burnt ends or trucker beans will not disappoint. Big Daddy’s Sausage House & More is a standout Ohio food truck serving hearty, flavor‑packed sausage creations, along with unbelievably savory comfort foods. Don’t miss the fried bologna or a chili dog with fresh cut fries. We are very excited that Yellow Springs Brewery will be joining us this year (more to come on their Middle Bass Island connection!).

Wines will be available from Heineman’s Winery, Ohio’s oldest family‑owned and operated winery, which are made from grapes grown on South Bass. Heineman’s wines are beloved for their freshness, sweetness, and strong sense of place, offering an authentic island-grown taste you won’t find elsewhere.

MORE ABOUT HISTORIC LONZ WINERY AND FERRY INFORMATION n the 1850s, the Lake Erie islands were used for grape production, giving them their nickname, "wine islands." The Lonz Winery on Middle Bass Island has been a familiar landmark since the early 20th century. After the winery closed, the state purchased the complex and transformed it into Middle Bass Island State Park in 2001.

In 2024, the historic Lonz Mansion underwent a remarkable restoration and is open for overnight stays. Guests can immerse themselves in the rich history of the Lonz family and their iconic winery by exploring the self-guided tour on the first floor. The second floor provides a unique opportunity for visitors to stay overnight in a piece of Ohio’s history while enjoying the island’s natural beauty. Book your stay now.

The park grounds feature undeveloped natural areas, including wetlands, woodlands, glacial grooves, and Lake Erie shoreline. Visitors can also see the shell of the historic Lonz Winery and enjoy the convenience of a full-service marina with a Harbormaster building.

As the summer starts to wind down, we plan to play outback at CBG's "micro stage" (weather permitting...otherwise indoors) . Now refurbished with a hip artsy feel, Owens kept the bones of the original neighborhood bar that many CF natives would probably say "oh I ya remember having a beer at that place." Whether a CF native or not, join us for some retro brand beers with great Savory Rock, Funk & Fusion from Nooch.
