Upstate New York is a beautiful backdrop for our 3-night tour of the Finger Lakes Wine Region. The Finger Lakes Wine Region is renowned for its stunning natural beauty and exceptional wine production. Named after its 11 narrow, glacial lakes, the area boasts over 100 wineries, with a strong emphasis on cool-climate varietals like Riesling and Cab Franc. The region's unique microclimate, influenced by the deep, freshwater lakes, provides ideal conditions for viticulture.
We'll visit iconic wineries like Dr. Konstantin Frank Winery, named for the first winemaker who recognized the similarity of Upstate New York and German climates. But we'll also stop at up-and-comers like Domaine LeSeurre Winery, bringing their French heritage to make some beautiful sparkling wines as well as signature rieslings. Along the way, we will stop in markets, enjoy live music, and visit the best restaurants in the area.
There are no plans for Sunday, June 29th, so you'll have plenty of time to make it home, stick around to explore more of the region, or head to Watkins Glen International Race Course for IMSA Sahlen's Six Hours of The Glen on Sunday, June 29th!
