4 Best Wineries near Auburn

“My friend and I were on our way home when we saw a sign for CJS Vineyards. We ended up turning around and stopping in - Chris and and the wines were both wonderful! He explained each wine in a way that was easy to understand and helped me to branch out my pallette. I will definitely return!“

“Visiting from out of town from Michigan and the owners gave myself and the group I was with a top tier experience for a wine tasting! So friendly and such a lovely atmosphere made by John and Lorraine. It was a chilly day and being inside did not take away from the gorgeous view of the barn, pond and vineyard in the spring time. Cayuga White was my favorite along with the Italian herbs olive oil on bread! highly recommend and would come back when back in town!“

“Stayed with HH great spot great local apple wine and brandy as well as cider“

“Absolutely loved our visit to Heart & Hands Wine Company. Both owners are often on site, and their hospitality truly makes the experience special. They are incredible hosts — welcoming, passionate, and eager to share their knowledge.

The wines are absolutely delicious, with a personal, small-batch tasting experience that feels unique compared to larger wineries. Their Pinot Noir in particular was outstanding — easily some of the best Pinot Noir I’ve tasted in the Finger Lakes region.

You can tell how much pride they take not only in the finished wines but in every step of the process, from the vineyard to production. Their knowledge and passion for winemaking really come through during the visit. If you’re anywhere near the Finger Lakes, this is a must-visit winery. Highly recommend!“
