Lauren Bodamer, Owner
468 Wine is a female-owned urban winery on Portage Road, founded by Portage native Lauren Bodamer as a gathering place for her community. The name nods to her three kids' birth months: April, June, and August. Beyond an extensive list of wines, ciders, cocktails, and house-made bites, 468 keeps a packed calendar: country line dancing, Wine Down Wednesday trivia, craft nights, live music, and more.
