“A very friendly location with tastings available. Although I didn't care for any of the wines, the staff was friendly and the other customers were too. There was some nice flowers outside the shop as well. The wines were mostly pretty dry.“
“Easy to get around with an electric cart.“
“A rainy, gloomy day was meant for wine tasting! I arrived alone and left with half a case of some wonderful wine!! Sitting in a rocking chair by a cozy fire, Jeannie provided an interactive wine tasting and I completed my visit with a glass of Chardonnay offered to me by a trio of new friends! Lakeshore is a must see in the Finger Lakes!!“
“Many different types of ciders calm laid back open atmosphere“
“Cranberry Frost was a huge hit at Thanksgiving - good thing I had multiple bottles“
“Just an impromptu stop while working our way around some wineries between Seneca and Cayuga, but so glad we found this little gem. Not busy at all when we stopped but most likely because the Watkins Glen Wine fest was going on at the same time. Randy was super friendly and very informative and even gave us a short tour of the facility. Bruce(owner) was in and out and we got to hear the story of how the Sheperdess got its name. DO NOT miss this place if you like your dry reds!! My wife and I thought they were some of the best tasting and full bodied reds in the region. They had a couple whites that were excellent but not our choice. The selection was limited but I would rather see fewer wines with better quality any day. Make sure to put this on your visit list if you are into high quality reds and whites(they also had a white sangria that we did not try).“
“Fantastic experience with a friendly, knowledgeable staff. I highly recommend checking this one out.“
“We had a great experience today at Bright Leaf! Weather was amazing and we just ordered a glass of beer and a Chardonnay (Oaked) plus a charcuterie board prepared by Rebecca. We asked for someone to take a photo, and Taylor was right there to do it.. We were pleasantly surprised by the owner Mike sitting down to visit with us, and talk all about his and Donna’s experience finding this property. Mike brought out a pizza for the two of us to share. I would highly recommend Bright Leaf Winery for your next visit to Cayuga Lake!“
“Heart and Hands is definitely one of the best wineries on Cayuga lake. The owners and staff are so knowledgeable and the wine is among the best in the Finger Lakes. We did the UTV Vineyard Tour & Tasting and what an experience!! We learned so much, got to tour the vineyards and had truly excellent wine and food pairings. This is a must!!“
“We hosted a Rehersal dinner here and cannot rave about this place enough.
Through the planning process Shari and the rest of the team were so accommodating and kind. I can’t recommend them enough.
The food and drinks were FANTASTIC- shout out to chef Hayleigh for making our menu dreams come true. The pastry chef is also extremely talented and created delicious desserts for our group.
Shari truly created an experience for us- from the set up, to the flowers, you can tell she truly cares about the experience delivered.
We can’t wait to visit again in the future!“
“🥂 we loved the beautifully done gardens, and dry rose was very good. They even offer a small gift shop, as well as some small eats in a cooler, which was great to take back to the boat. Great place to kick back with you favorite bottle & people or pets 🥰“
“First winery we went to in the fingerlakes and it did not disappoint. Highly recommend! There is something for everyone!“
“nice wines. knowledgeable employees“
“My husband and I came here as part of the Galentines Cayuga Wine Trail event.
Mary was polite and accommodating from the very start, and as the designated driver, she ensured I was comfortable and gave me generous mocktails! She also helped my husband find a wine worthy to fly back home with us, and gave us recommendations for other local experiences.
Thank you for the wonderful experience! 🫶“

“What an amazing place. We had the best time with Russ. He is very knowledgeable, friendly, funny and just made our day. Unfortunately the deli was closed, but Russ referred us to Aurora Brewing, next door, who had a fabulous fire pizza. Delicious. Hard to pick a favorite wine, they were all absolutely wonderful at Long Point Winery!!!!!“
