We think wine tasting is always fun, but some wineries take a more serious approach to the wine and tasting experience, while others focus on keeping things relaxed and fun.

At more serious wineries, tastings can be very informative and educational, where you learn about their winemaking process and what makes them unique. You may get to try single-vineyard or vintage tastings for comparison. There's usually not a lot of distractions from the wine.
Other wineries are more about kicking back and enjoying the vibe. They may offer more than just wine, like beer or wine slushies. The wine labels could feature fun characters or themes, and there’s often live music.

Most Finger Lakes wineries are dog-friendly, allowing dogs in their outdoor spaces. However, we only label a winery as 'Dog Friendly' if they welcome well-behaved, leashed dogs inside the tasting room. It's important to note that when dogs aren't allowed indoors, it's usually due to New York state health regulations, not the winery's preference. Service animals are always permitted, as required by the ADA.
