11 Best Wineries near Seneca Falls

“First stop on wine tour. It was a must because everyone loves the wines. Fudge was pretty good too! Thank you for having us!“

“Beautiful old-school vineyard still set up in the old-school way, they have a beautiful fireplace they like to light up and burn when it's freezing out, and have wine while sitting around enjoying each other. That's the way I imagined it anyway. But I loved it here, they actually had some of the best wines I tasted in the area.“

“Chris is a wonderful host. We learned a lot about the wine that we were drinking.“

“The best experience of wine tasting in your entire life. Top #1 winery in the Finger Lakes. Everything tastes good, looks good, feels good and absolutely beautiful. They offer something for literally everyone and they just make your experience from start to finish so memorable!“

“Great selection and very friendly people!“

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

“Definitely visit this winery, it is a gem in the Finger Lakes!! Wow, what a great experience tasting high quality wines! We had a great tasting experience, with a very attentive and thoughtful staff explaining each wine and where the grapes are grown,. It’s obvious that there is a high detail on quality which is reflected in exquisite wines. We loved everything we tasted including the sparkling Riesling,, the Chardonnay and the Blanc de Blanc. Like everyone else, we left with a big box of wine and hope to join their club so that we can enjoy this wine year round. Thank you Susan for making this a special experience!“

“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 could not have imagined a more perfect venue than Ventosa Vineyards for our wedding. From start to finish, Jackie (venue coordinator) was absolutely incredible. She was professional, warm, flexible, and truly dedicated to making everything run smoothly. Her communication was spot-on throughout the entire planning process, and she made every detail feel important.

The venue itself is stunning. Between the covered, outdoor ceremony space and the elegant, indoor reception area with a balcony overlooking the vineyard, the views are simply breathtaking. Photos really don’t do it justice and you have to see it in person. Our guests were blown away by the beauty of the property.

We chose the plated dinner option with three hors d'oeuvres, and everything was phenomenal. At our tasting, it made it difficult to decide between our initial options because everything was delicious. The day-of food matched that same high quality. The steak was cooked perfectly, the salmon was flaky, and the chicken was tender and flavorful. Cory, the executive chef, and kitchen staff did a fantastic job getting meals out quickly without sacrificing quality. Our guests are still talking about how amazing the food was!

The entire staff including the planning, servers, bartenders, setup, and breakdown crew were all kind, professional, and incredibly accommodating. Everyone made us feel supported and cared. Our wedding day was truly perfection. Ventosa Vineyards made everything feel magical, and we’re so grateful we chose them!“

“It's nice for a change to be able to taste wines that aren't full of complexity. I chose the varieties that would give me more of the Concord grape flavor and am happy to say they had many. Their back deck overlooking their pond is so enjoyable. Also our visit by a very talkative pony was quite t he treat. Jamie took exceptional care and had the patience of a Saint. We've put this wine out at Halloween for the parents that accompany the children and it's been a hit. So we returned to restock for this year. Not a over the top fussy or fancy winery, but definitely friendly staff and great ?.“

“Given the area, this place was a welcome treat. Their menu is clearly labeled and changes often. Nice outdoor seating. We ordered 2 salads, a Beyond Burger, a Big A** pretzel, artichoke hush puppies, and had fried sunchokes(!). Salads were great (tough to get a good salad around here), Beyond burger was delish, artichoke hush puppies were great if you are a fan of hush puppies, and sunchokes are a delight just for existing! Unfortunately, the pretzel was dry and bread-y. It was our least fave item and wouldn't recommend it.“
