At Henke Winery it all starts with family. Joe’s initial aspirations to make wine were sparked in 1973 during a visit to his sister’s Pennsylvania home. Joe kindled this spark by making his first batch of wine, a rosé from concentrate. As Joe’s love for wine making grew so did the number of people who encouraged him to begin making wine professionally. When this encouragement started coming from professional vintners, the flame was fanned and empowered Joe to create the legacy of the Henke Winery.

Henke Winery has grown to become one of the top urban wineries in the country with wine which consistently medals high in international wine competitions. Locally, Henke Winery has been voted the best wine shop in Cincinnati.
