Your Cayuga Lake Wine Tour Itinerary

Explore the west side of Cayuga Lake and some of its best wineries on this half-day tour. Learn what makes these wines so special and get a taste of the local cuisine with gourmet pairings.

We begin at Buttonwood Grove Winery with a private, behind-the-scenes tour of the wine-making process. After your tour, experience a tasting on their deck, featuring a select wine paired with local cheese.

Next up is Hosmer Winery, founded in the 1980s. The Hosmer Family is a pillar of quality grape growing in the Finger Lakes region. At Hosmer, you experience a delectable tasting that includes multiple pairings with cheese, pesto, and chocolate!

Our last winery of the day is Sheldrake Point Winery. Enjoy the view from their beautiful lakefront tasting room while sampling their wines, ranging from exquisitely crafted rieslings to their proprietary red blends. This tasting also features pairings with locally-crafted cheeses

The tour culminates with a trip to the beautiful Taughannock Falls overlook. Standing at 215 feet high, it is the tallest waterfall in the Eastern U.S. and is sure to take your breath away.

*Please note, occasionally our partners are unavailable. In these cases, Bet the Farm Winery may be added to the itinerary as an alternate stop.
