Thank you to our premiere beer and wine sponsor for providing the museum with delicious drinks!

The Mazza family has been making wine in the Lake Erie AVA since 1972. We began with a single vineyard and have grown (no pun intended) to include three winery locations, a brewery, a distillery, a handful of wine shops, and a diverse and ever-growing collection of wines that can be found on wine racks and wine lists throughout the Northeast region of the country.
