About Us

Presque Isle Wine Cellars is a family-owned business operating since 1964.  We are perhaps one-of-a-kind in that we are both a winemaking supplies store and an operating award-winning commercial winery.  We use the products we sell in our own operation and are intimately familiar with our products and with the winemaking process.  This unique combination allows us to provide a higher level of service and support to our customers.  Our staff is happy to share our knowledge with our customers with the goal of better wine for everyone. 

Our facilities are nestled on the beautiful banks of Twelve-Mile Creek in North East, Pennsylvania—heart of the Lake Erie Wine Region. Since 1964, we’ve been "Pennsylvania's Pioneer Winery" and a provider of “Everything for the Winemaker,” offering a comprehensive selection of home and small-commercial winemaking supplies and equipment, raw materials, and—each fall—our own fresh-pressed regional grapes and juices.  Download our Wine Catalog to learn more about our unique wine region and our internationally award-winning wines

In 1969, we became one of Pennsylvania’s first two post-Prohibition wineries licensed under the new Pennsylvania Limited Winery Act.  Today, our handcrafted, award-winning wines—from elegant, European-style whites and reds to rich labrusca and hybrid reds—are available at our tasting room, select retail outlets and restaurants in PA, and online in states we serve.
