bmorosco - I have been to the Finger Lake region wine tasting a few years ago. Lakewood Vineyard on Seneca Lake has a Niagara wine that is really good. I would like Winexpert to have a kit wine for that style of wine. We toured the NY wineries on our own without a tour.In nothern Michigan we have wineries that have oragnized tours, with wines paired with food. You buy a ticket for the event and drive yourself to each winery. There used tojust be ten but now there are 12 or 13 on the tour. You can do it over two days. Some people do rent limos, etc. for large groups. Hope you have fun!!! Leelanau

I have never been on a tour there but I have tasted wines from that region. I interviewed for a job there in Binghamton a couple years ago and tried a few of the locals wines. Very good if I say so. I really wish that job would of worked out as it would of been nice to live in a premium wine region.

I have made my own tour to all the wineries in Ct. last year. There are
16 of them spread through out the state and we hit about six one
Saturday and my wife couldnt drink another drop. But in the next three
weeks we finished them all off. I couldny imagine going to 26 in one
day. Thats a lot of wine to be tasted.

 

[bmorosco]

no way...we wont hit half of them.. Thats alot of well um er...fun..

I aws going to say, someone is going to be wasted. As for me, I cannot
bring myself to spit out wine, just seems to bew not very classy, not
that I'm a suit and tie kinda guy but you know what I mean.

 

[bmorosco]

definately wont be wasting a drop.....
