Wine Tastings and Tours at the Put-In-Bay Winery
Experience Island Life as it was in the 1800’s.
Situated on the water, directly across from Gibraltar Island, sits the majestic Italianate residence, the Doller House. It was home to one of Put-In-Bay’s wealthiest and most influential citizens, Valentine Doller.
Tour the Doller House and Island Life Museum to learn about island living, past and present. Displays include the last remaining island icehouse and the 100 year evolution of winter travel across the ice.
