“Many different types of ciders calm laid back open atmosphere“

“Fantastic experience with a friendly, knowledgeable staff. I highly recommend checking this one out.“

“Cranberry Frost was a huge hit at Thanksgiving - good thing I had multiple bottles“

“Great wine. Great family.“

“🥂 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 🥰“

“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.“

“Dog friendly inside and out, they even have a dog park for your pup to run a bit.
The wines were fantastic, they had the best Gewurztraminer of all the places we sampled. Our host was super-attentive and was very helpful with the details about each of the wines we tried.
Our pup gives it two paws up, he got plenty of scritches and 3 dog treats!
We will definitely visit this pet friendly location on any future visits to the area.“

“We visit the Finger Lakes a few times a year and this is always a must stop. The property is beautiful and the wine, especially the bubbly Riesling, is excellent. We were there this past Sunday with a group of four, including my mother, who cannot walk well. I requested a table but since they had an event and a large group coming in, all tables had been removed. Despite this, they went out of their way to accommodate my mom by bringing in a table for her. They did not have to, but the fact that they cared enough to do so truly took their service to a new level. We will definitely be back!!“

“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!!“

“Had a wonderful tasting here last week and want to give a big special shout out to Victor, who worked with our table of 6 to select some fantastic whites to taste! He was a special server, made our experience really enjoyable and memorable. Thank you!“

“This past weekend we visited Lamoreaux for a wine tasting. Keep in mind it is winter and slow season. Some places in the area had also closed due to the weather but they had stayed open and I am so glad we had the chance to do a tasting here. The location itself is beautiful. Michaela was so kind and knowledgeable on the wines. Every winery has its own characteristics and selection and she knew theirs very well and made some wonderful suggestions based on what we had liked so far. She went above and beyond for us. The atmosphere was perfect and we easily spent an hour here having a relaxed tasting and chatting with our server as well as other guests.“

“Miles Wine Cellars was the perfect place for our small, intimate wedding. The setting was stunning and our stay at the Inn was cozy and comfortable. Staff was accommodating and friendly, sparing no detail. Food was fabulous and perfectly paired with our wine choices. We highly recommend Miles Wine Cellars. Thank you again for making our day so special and memorable.“

“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!!!!!“

“I’ve never been disappointed in a tasting with John regardless of how many times we visit.
Another area we find ourselves in admiration over is the staff across the board at Wagner. Always helpful and friendly. They have a good thing going and always make us feel welcomed.“

“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).“

“Great wines, beautiful views from the spacious patio!“

“Nice roadside stop with a winery, meadery, and cidery. Large outdoor space for summer time. The meadery is the only one on the lake that I know of and their mead is very good. They have a selection of fruit wines mixed with mead and they're fantastic. There's a real bee hive on display inside it's really cool to watch the little guys at work!“

“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!!“

“great wine but getting too expensive for me“

“We had a fantastic time out at Sanstone Vineyards for a wedding.

The space is really beautiful out by the ceremony location however, there is some building going on across the field. As long as they’re quiet on the weekend, it makes for a beautiful view of the mountains!

The Cocktail our space by the pool Is dreamy and gives off a very fun Napa vibe.
The reception location is perfect because it’s covered yet. It’s open air so you get a nice breeze and a beautiful view of the mountains and the vineyard.

The team on site is so friendly and helpful. They will set up all of the tables and chairs so you just have to do the decorating. This is incredibly helpful.

Sandstone is a great location, close enough to hotels and rideshare options that gives Off a very country vineyard feel.

It’s also a really great option for a wedding because they do require you to use the curb catering and mobile bar which cuts down on you having to find Additional different Vendors. (Not to mention, the food is really good!)

Overall, a really excellent option in the Treasure Valley to host your wedding or event!“

“We chose Geneva, NY because it is halfway between our two families and we both really love wine. Zugibe was on the top of my list from the beginning, but I was so happy that it was just as beautiful in person as it was in the photos. We had the whole venue to ourselves, which was so great. The views were spectacular, and we for to watch the sunset during dinner. The wine was delicious--we drank rose all night. Amy was so easy to work with and her staff were so on top of it. She was flexible with us doing our rehearsal two days early, and allowed us to drop things off at the venue well in advance, which was so helpful. There was not one thing I asked Amy that she did not find a way to make it work. We originally wanted to do the dancing outside in front of the pavilion (due to weather we ended up under the tent), but Amy was so helpful and willing to make that work. We had a perfect day at Zugibe.“

“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!“

“nice wines. knowledgeable employees“

“First winery we went to in the fingerlakes and it did not disappoint. Highly recommend! There is something for everyone!“

“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! 🫶“
