Finger Lakes New York

Finger Lakes, New York
May 29, 2015

As you drive through the Finger Lakes Region for the first time, I suspect you'll have the same reaction that we did.  When will we be able to get back and spend some more time here?  The town of Geneva at the top of Lake Seneca, allows for easy access to either the West or East side of the Lake.  And as our friend Joan would say, "It's stinking with scenery!"  The historic downtown has experienced a rebirth and is a great place to walk around after a long day of tastings.

There are dozens of wineries at the Lakes region, so don't be fooled into thinking you can visit them all.  Go to a couple and tell them the style of wine you like, and then let them guide you to your destination.  We were looking for a view of the lake and a place to have some lunch, so we followed the local advice to visit Fox Run Vineyards,  The combination of puffy white clouds and sun made an excellent late May day.  With 25 years under their belt, , the wines here have been awarded lots of medals and Best Buys from major magazines.  

Their gourmet lunch room was also delicious.  We were envious of a couple who had a cheese plate and were sitting on the front porch.  A great combination of wines and food.

We sat back and enjoyed ourselves and hope you can make a trip there too.  On our way now to another northern winery, but not in a state.  Check us out next week to see where....


Bread, cheese, and wine is always fine.
