12 Best Wineries near Branchport

“Visited in Nov '23. Great wines. Bought a bottle of carbonated Traminette. Just got around to opening it now. Beautifully balanced wine with just enough acidity and a hint of carbonation that cuts through Traminette's inherent sweetness. I want more!“

“It's been 15 yrs since last visit to this 7 generation Vinyard. Since then I've been looking for their ice wine (I like dry, bold wine, and never liked any other sweet wines, by US or Europe, BUT...). The farm had quite a bit of improvement including the tasting room. I'm delighted to know they've been going towards sustainability, including organic farm certification and solar power. The ice wine was just like I remembered - well balanced with noble sweetness of muscat grapes. Truly one of a kind. I got 20% discount for a case of this and also, Cream Sherry, which was also sweet but well balanced, great for after dinner or even afternoon tea time. Fiy, ice wine grapes are handpicked. The care you can taste in a glass.“

“Weis Vineyards is truly a hidden gem! From the moment I set foot on their charming property, I was greeted with such warmth and hospitality. And let me tell you, the wines they produce are absolutely divine! Each sip took me on a delightful journey of flavors, and I couldn't help but savor every drop. The staff there, my goodness, they were so knowledgeable and kind, sharing fascinating stories about the winemaking process. I simply cannot wait to go back and indulge in the wonderful offerings of Weis Vineyards once again!“

“Can't say enough good things about Keuka Spring Vineyards. Sheri and Allie were very attentive, knowledgeable, and passionate about the wines and the Vineyard in general. They made for a fun wonderful experience. Incredible view overlooking the lake and stunning tasting room! There isn't one wine we didn't like. I would highly recommend a visit to Keuka Spring Vineyards, you won't be disappointed.“

“This was our last stop on a Sunday after a full day of winery hopping. This place did not disappoint, the wine was flavorful and the cheese spreads were very tasty too. I wish we had more time there but it was 10 minutes to closing and we didnt want to linger and be THOSE people. we will definitely return here.“

“We went to Dr. Frank’s for a wine tasting and had a wonderful time tasting and learning from Sue! Such a fun time pairing the charcuterie cheeses with the wines. Most of all, everyone there is friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive and they are what makes the Konstantin Frank Winery so special. We will definitely be back!“

“We had a great time here! Owners are super knowledgeable and friendly. Great sample of wines and cheeses were offered at a good price. The wines were quite tasty! They also had beer, which was a bonus! Great view of lake form both outside deck and inside tasting room.“

“The winery is beautiful. The wines are French style. The tasting experience was very good since the host was very knowledgeable. It helped in the selection of wines to taste. His descriptions made it easy to select. Besides very good wines the views are very nice. Stop in and enjoy a glass“

“Great wine, great atmosphere, and the employee was very knowledgeable and helpful! My mom and I each did a wine tasting (we had to make a reservation) then joined their wine club and ordered 6 bottles because we enjoyed it so much! They have good whites that are perfect for poolside drinking and reds that are full of tannins.“

“Found ourselves in Penn Yan, randomly stopped in and it was an amazing decision. Our host with a distinctive Scottish accent was excellent. We lost track and just let him drive. We started out preference and he just started pouring - we enjoyed the ride. The only complaint I have is we weren't offered a menu with a golf pencil. The wine is fantastic, so are the ciders. My wife said it was the best cherry cider she has ever tasted. We both enjoyed the strawberry and was part of our purchase. Don't pass this place up, even consider a special trip.“

“One of the best winery experiences I’ve ever had! I’ve been to multiple with girlfriends and large groups and this time I tasted solo and bright eye early as soon as they opened at 10AM on a Saturday morning. I had Ms. Carolyn all to myself for a tasting and boy was it great! I left a wine snob. She was so informative and educated on the wines, wine making and the establishment itself. She made sure to accommodate to my likings while also opening up my palette. I don’t care for reds but she explained I’m probably not drinking the right ones and she was right! I left with a bottle and wanting more! I would highly recommend visiting. Come early so you get a more intimate experience.“

“The tasting here is different. They bring two bottles of wine at a time for you to select one to taste. There are 10 wines you taste 5. So the tasting is their selection. They have more wines on their list other than the ones presented. The wines I tasted were very nice. The June Bug White and Red were nice.“
