Arbor Hill Grapery
This winery was established in 1987 on the southern end of Canandaigua Lake. The Brahm family has taken great pride to produce the finest wines in a tranquil antique country setting. With 4 generations experience in wine production, the flavor is of old world quality. The latest generation has a member that graduated from Cornell with a degree in Pomology.
In the 1960’s the family ventured into the now famous Naples Grape Pie production which has expanded to over 30,000 pies being produced in just a six week period each year. This is truly a grapery and not just a winery. A variety of specialty foods and sauces are also available but the wine has never been neglected.
This vineyard was the first in the world to produce a Traminette wine. This was created from a hybrid grape developed over a period of thirty years by Cornell University. With 5 award-winning wines this year including medal placing in an international competition, this winery has a special taste.
Dry wines available are Chardonnay, Sparkling Chardonnay, Dry Traminette, Cabernet Sauvignon, Noir, Noiret and Canandaigua Moorse Diamond. For semi dry there are Vergennes, Riesling, Onnalinda White and Genundewah Blush. The first in the world classic semi-sweet Traminette is their best award winning wine. For sweet wines the Rhine Street Red and White, Ogarita Niagara, Spumante, Mrs. Brahm’s Very Blueberry, Ambrosia and the Arbor Frost.
Online wine purchasing along with all the great gourmet food is available with wholesale prices and easy terms. If you can visit the winery and uncork a New York wine at the vineyard, you can experience the knowledge of a wine master that has spent over 40 years in his trade as you savor the delicate blends available. Uncork New York Wines and enjoy the Arbor Hill quality.
