Turtle's Landing Winery

Turtle's Landing Winery, nestled just outside Clearfield, PA, is a burgeoning family-owned establishment that combines a love for winemaking with a personal touch. The winery's foundations are deeply entwined with its owners' family history and their connection to the local landscape.

History and Background

• Turtle’s Landing Winery started as a personal hobby by Brian Soltys during the COVID-19 pandemic when regular visits to other wineries became impractical. His home-made wine received positive feedback from friends, encouraging him and his wife, Stacy, to open their own winery.
• The winery’s name was inspired from a spot on Clearfield Creek, a favorite canoe spot for the family and their beloved toy poodle, Turtle. The name "Turtle's Landing" was chosen after an endearing moment during a canoe trip.
• Stacy and Brian, both natives and enthusiasts of the local area, transformed their family home into the winery, making it a true family enterprise.
