Yellow Butterfly Winery

5 stars — A Hidden Gem with Scenic Charm and Warm Hospitality

What an absolute treasure tucked away in the rolling hills of Ohio! From the moment you drive up to the iconic yellow barn, you know you’ve found somewhere special. The scenery is stunning—vineyards, open skies, and even alpacas grazing nearby. I brought my drone and captured some beautiful aerial photos of the barn, patio, and vineyard layout—this place is a dream to photograph.

Inside, the rustic charm continues with a welcoming vibe and friendly staff who are passionate about the wine and the experience. The wine list offers something for everyone, from fruit-forward sweet wines to bolder dry reds. I personally enjoyed the Blackberry Merlot and their Peach Chardonnay—both full of flavor and perfect for sipping outdoors.

Their food menu is small but thoughtfully crafted. I loved the charcuterie board, and their BBQ sandwiches hit the spot. If you visit on a weekend, check the events schedule—live music fills the air and adds even more life to the setting. Families, couples, and friend groups were all enjoying themselves while I was there.

They’ve truly created a space where time slows down. Whether you’re here for a casual tasting, an event, or just a peaceful countryside drive, Yellow Butterfly Winery delivers. I’ll definitely be back—and next time, I might bring a picnic blanket and stay a little longer.

The greatest sommelier in the heartland

What a special place! A big yellow barn in the middle of the country....and alpacas!! We were greeted by our lovely host, Betsy & decided on some one ounce pour flights(which was good considering we were doing a full day wine tour)....I loved the details of the interior decor, the thoughtful way the owner set things up for Valentine's Day...it was lovely. We sat down with our flights & just took it all in....breathtaking, even in the winter! You definitely need to leave with a bottle of the Apple Delight(tastes like apple bourbon but very smooth)

Been to this winery in past, it was ok. Recently new owners took over & they have done a fantastic job. The staff was super friendly & quick. The setting is beautiful with rolling hills & a small lake. The entertainment was top notch & at a volume level enjoyable enough to hear the music but still have a conversation with friends. Ample wine selection from sweet dessert wines/slushy to a dry red Cab. Great place to enjoy time with friends & family!

This winery is unbelievably beautiful. The people that own and operate this establishment are the finest folks I have ever met! The wines were wonderful. The entertainment was top notch. There was a food truck on site that was terrific. This was 100% worth the trip and I am looking forward to going again!

The wine we sampled was terrible. Out of about 8 different selections, only one was close to being good. We were a party of 8. Won't go back.

Beautiful restored winery with a great selection of wines for sampling, by the glass, or bottle. Friendly staff. Peaceful with indoor and outdoor seating. Definitely a hidden gem.

In my opinion, this place is a must go to.the property is maticlisis .the wine selection is ample, the food from the cantina is Wow incredible. The scenery alone is worth a visit.what they had to accomplish to make the barn as beautiful as it is .is pure magic..
Make sure you stop here,once you do you'll go back.
The owner stopped by ,and stopped and thanked everyone .beyond nice gentleman, thanks mike...

truly a wonderful atmosphere!!!

We came for a group outing and had a wine tasting with snack. Loved the great staff who were helpful. Amazing views on the back patio. They could host small events and it is a great layout to have 2 seperate spaces.

Good wine but we were all in here today and it was freezing so we told them and the girl said she wasn’t allowed to turn up the heat so we left sooner then we would have normally definitely a shame bc the wine is good but that’s bad business

Very freindly atmosphere.. Will definetly return..

They have the best sweet wine selections!! Beautiful place and great hospitality!! Highly recommended!!

Beautiful building and location. Wine stewardesses are always very friendly. Their deck is the perfect place to sit in the summer and the spacious indoor seating is perfect for the winter. I love sweet red and pink lady the most out of their wine choices.
