Explore the stories of the wine pioneers of the Midwest Wine and Cincinnati were once a perfect pairing. So much so that the "Queen City" nickname was inspired by Sparkling Catawba Wine, the delectable libation that sparked the Catawba Craze of the mid-1800s. Longworth's Golden Wedding Sparkling Catawba was most celebrated, but Werk's Golden Eagle and Red Cross, Corneau's Cornucopia, Thompson's Hillside, Bogen's Diamond, Mottier's National Premium, and Schumann's Queen Victoria bolstered the city's reputation as the American Rhineland. These winemakers passed their knowledge onto Lake Erie, the New York Finger Lakes, Pennsylvania, Missouri, and California. Today, that knowledge has returned home, as Henke, Skeleton Root, Meier, and Vinoklet hope to make the city a wine haven again. Food historian Dann Woellert leads a tour through Cincy's storied past and promising future with the grape and the vine.
