Check out some of our favorite photos during our numerous visits to the region. The region offers so many wineries to visit that you will want to return again and again.

The wineries in the Finger Lakes vary from small, boutique type wineries to much larger ones. Visitors will discover that each winery has its own personality and style of wines to taste. For example, during our visit to McGregor Vineyard, we were encourage to sit at picnic-style tables and were served our wine tastings. Other wineries such as Knapp Winery offer dining on the property. You will even discover wineries that are also producing distilled products.

Frontenac Point Vineyard & Estate Winery

To help you choose which wineries to visit reviews of more than 65  wineries in the region are available on the Wine Trail Traveler website. If you have the opportunity, be sure to include a visit to the New York Wine & Culinary Center in Canandaigua.

Barrington Cellars

Anyone interested in history will want to visit the Pleasant Valley Wine Company located in Hammondsport, New York. Bully Hill Vineyards, also with a long history, is nearby. Of course, another must visit is Dr. Konstantin Frank Winery, which provides a look at Dr. Konstantin Frank, who was one of the first to realize the potential of growing cool climate grapes in the Finger Lakes region.

After a morning of hiking or swimming, plan to stop by a winery to relax and socialize.

Cheers!
