Conor was absolutely fantastic! He is incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and took the time to explain the wines in a way that was both educational and enjoyable. You can really tell he’s passionate about what he does, and it made the tasting experience even better.

We also truly appreciate and respect the winery’s welcoming, pro-immigrant values—it speaks volumes about the people behind the wine. Between the atmosphere, the mission, and outstanding staff like Conor, this winery is one we’ll happily return to and recommend to everyone.

We love this place!

Top of my list for favorite wineries.

We had a great time here, the wine was delicious and Connor was really helpful and friendly telling us about each of the wines. Being dog friendly is also a wonderful added bonus for the cold/rainy days!

The view, the wine, the company… this is a special place. In an area with a (wonderfully) superfluous amount of wineries, it can be hard to stand out, but this place certainly accomplishes it. Connor was a huge part of why our experience was so lovely— we very much appreciated Connor’s approach to the tasting, expertise, and apparent passion when it comes to wine and the finger lakes. Thank you! We can’t wait to come back someday 🍷❣️🍷

Colely and Connor were so amazing here. A lot of much information on wines and what would resonate with each of our tastes. And by far the best wine we’ve had from the local wineries. 100%!

This was such a great tasting experience. All of the wines were so good and the view is amazing. Friendly and entertaining staff. We will definitely be back.

Wonderful wine list and even more wonderful staff! Knowledge, entertaining, and so thoughtful. Went with my girlfriend and we had the best time. Plus they have beautiful views of Sceneca lake and great sparkling wines! Connor and Coley helped us and they were the best. A bright spot of our girls trip!

We’ve been quarterly members since summer 2024, and likely would’ve been for years. With anticipation we were back in FLX to visit and couldn’t wait to visit our fave winery, we walked into the tasting room literally minutes ago and he told us (with an incredibly unapologetic rude attitude) that without our cards there would be no free tasting, nothing. It’s 2025, use the computer and look up our membership. Period. He didn’t care, he was incredibly rude, loud, obnoxious and this was the only moment on this trip my heart rate got above 100, and I’m a marathoner. I’m disgusted and disappointed, Connor was horrible and IMO doesn’t belong front of house anywhere much less a winery in the middle of 1,000 other wineries. We’re leaving right now and heading to another!!

Great wine selecting. We loved the views from the deck.

Coley is theeeeee BEST!!! We are obsessed with her! She brings such a great vibe to this winery! She welcomed us with an open heart and played along with our jokes and fun so well. THANK you Coley! We will be back! <3

Leidenfrost is still our number 1 vineyard when visiting finger lakes. Always good dry reds. The Cab Franc and BacoNoir are excellent . Kirsten was our tasting barista and she was very knowledgeable on their wines and also enjoyable to chat with. Recommend!

Love leidenfrost. Started coming here in 2016, now make sure we stop every time we're at the finger lakes. We love the wine, the atmosphere, and Connor! Love you all, keep the good wine coming!

Overall loved the wines and the experience. Not a lot of gf eating options and a little pushy on trying to get us to buy more wines, gorgeous setup
