Good Vibes Winery and Wine Bar is an urban winery located in Uptown Westerville on the corner of State and College Streets.  All of our wines are hand-crafted on site giving them a unique affordability.

Enjoy a sampling from our selection of more than twenty-five wines while sitting at our beautiful tasting bar or choose to relax at one of our bistro tables sharing a bottle of wine and a cheese plate with friends.

We have been asked where the name Good Vibes Winery came from.  My wife and I enjoy listening to music and particularly to the Oldies from when we were younger.  We thought it would be fun to name the winery after one of these songs.  After considering many songs, we settled on “Good Vibrations” (or shortened to Good Vibes.)  We also named our wines after songs.  The winery is a place where people can come to relax and enjoy our great wines at a reasonable price.
