Casella Winery at Roxford Park is a family-run winery that takes pride in their "homemade with love" approach to winemaking. Started in 2013 as a home occupation, the winery offered Nonnu's, their signature wine, to wine stores and restaurants. Since then, the winery has developed and now offers a variety of wines to please any palate. Wine is available for shipping or pick up at the winery.
In 2013, the winery found a new home in the historic Roxford District School building, which has been lovingly restored and transformed into Roxford Park. The winery's beautiful grounds and building are now a popular venue for special events and gatherings.
The winery's approach to winemaking is simple, yet effective. They believe in letting the juice undergo a metamorphosis with time and racking to bring out the quality of the wine. They use simple methods and no shortcuts, resulting in consistently delicious wines.
The winery's love for wine is deeply rooted in their Sicilian American culture, where wine was an essential part of the kitchen complimenting olive oil, garlic, cheese, and bread. The winery's founder, a self-proclaimed lover of Sangiovese, discovered his passion for winemaking through a lifetime of sampling and intuition.
At Casella Winery at Roxford Park, guests are welcome to make themselves at home and enjoy the wine and fellowship. Whether sipping a favorite wine while taking in the distant country views or attending a special event, the winery's mission is to please and accommodate in any way possible.
Winery Beginnings
Every day, the sun rises over scenic Roxford Park, a historic landmark located in the former village of Roxford, Ohio. Situated atop a ridge in rural Tuscarawas County, the park is home to the Roxford Schoolhouse and yard, which was built in 1918 to replace a previous wooden structure that had burned down on the same site.
The schoolhouse served as a one-room school until 1954, and in 2013 it was transformed into the Casella Winery and Distillery. The schoolhouse has undergone extensive renovation inside, while still retaining many original features. Most of our improvements enhance the exterior and grounds. Thus, we are continually creating Roxford Park.
Visitors to Roxford Park are sure to be impressed by the breathtaking views and the architectural wonder of the largest known one-room schoolhouse. The exposed foundation stones from the original school that burnt and original well in the front yard are a testament to the rich history of this unique location. Whether you're a history buff, a wine connoisseur, or simply looking for a beautiful place to relax and enjoy nature, Scenic ROXFORD PARK is a must-see destination. Come visit and see for yourself what makes this hidden gem so special.
