Bent Ladder offers Wine and Ciders and some small bites, BUT YOU CAN BRING YOUR OWN FOOD!

WINES:
Great wine starts with great fruit. We grow exclusively French-American hybrids in our vineyard. These are crosses of cold hardy grape varieties and vinifera, or “Old World,” grapes. These varieties are well-suited to surviving the cold, Ohio winters and are able to fully ripen in our shorter growing season. This allows us to produce exceptional wine from our own grapes year after year.

HARD CIDERS:
We currently have eight different handcrafted hard ciders available straight from the tap in our tasting room. Each cider is made from a selection of our estate-grown apples which we crush, ferment, age and keg in-house. Even if you have never tried a hard cider before, our wide selection ensures that you will be able to find something that you love. We offer flight boards, glasses and pitchers on site, as well as howlers, growlers, and cans as to-go options so you can enjoy your favorite cider at home.

in 2021 we began releasing our Heritage Series of ciders. These ciders are made primarily with the old-time cider and specialty apples that we grow on the farm. The focus of this series is to really show off the apples. These are available in the tasting room, as well as by the bottle to take home. This year we released our first ice cider, Winter Crisp. Winter Crisp is available in our tasting room by the glass, or to take home by the split.

LIGHT BITES MENU:
Along with opening the tasting room to indoor seating, Bent Ladder has also opened our kitchen for visitor snacking! We currently offer two food boards. The Cheese & Cracker board is a tasty offering of four different cheese along with crackers, dried cherries, mixed nuts, and finished with delicious Rittman Orchards apple slices. The Bread & Oil board is also more than meets the eye. It comes with two types of sliced baguette–Italian and multi-grain–parted by a hearty portion of Bent Ladder’s own seasoned balsamic olive oil which is topped with Parmesan cheese. Don’t take our word, stop in and share one today!

And if food boards do not spark your interest, check out Rittman Orchards’ market before visiting Bent Ladder. There you can find plenty of sweet, savory, and filling options, all of which are welcome within the tasting room. Bent Ladder does not allow any other outside food to be brought indoors. However YOU CAN BRING YOUR OWN FOOD FOR OUR OUTDOOR SEATING. However, NO OUTSIDE BEVERAGE PERMITTED at any time–indoors or outdoors.

A NOTE ON RSVP's: Please update your RSVP and please do NOT wait till the last minute to change. Venues have been contacted that a group is coming - they add wait staff and prepare. It is also not a good look for our group to have decreased numbers.
