Popping from winery to winery in the Finger Lakes on wine-tasting adventures has boomed in popularity, thanks in part to the unique styles produced in one of the country’s most well-known wine regions.  

Tracing the beginnings of one of those styles — Reisling — takes you back seven decades and halfway around the world, and it remains one of the most popular of the vinifera varieties.  “In the 1950s, Dr. Konstantin Frank moved over from Odessa, Ukraine, where he was growing a lot of varieties of Riesling and other vinifera varieties,” said Alex Jankowski, marketing and communications manager at Wagner Vineyards. “He came over here as a refugee and heard everyone saying you can’t grow those here. He was like well, we do it there, and it's similar, harsh winters, and not a lot of sunlight.”

Featured Cocktails

For a limited time in tasting room only. Lilac Gin and Lemonade plus Berry Awesome (Raspberry Vodka, Cranberry Juice, & Lime).

Reading to Kids

Infants and small children absorb everything around them in lightning speed. Just use a naughty word once and see how quickly and clearly they repeat it. Reading to your child helps develop their brain and will extend the bond you have with them. Read More.

Moving Potted Plants Indoors for the Winter

Often people let their houseplants spend the summer outdoors enjoying the fresh air. As temperatures begin to drop, it is time to consider their return to the inside. This is usually a process. With warm days but chilly nights, you may want to consider moving the plants back and forth between the outside and bringing them into a garage or other closed area (not inside the house) overnight. This does take some effort, but the process of moving the plants indoors and out will help the plants adjust to the change of environment. You may still experience some leaf drop when they are inside. Read More.

“Less” Chocolate Cakes

Ever think you could come up with a delicious chocolate cake without some of the basics like flour or dairy? It can be done. Read More.
