Lakewood Vineyard New York Winery
To uncork a wine from this New York winery, over 57 years of grape cultivation is unleashed. Frank Stamp first planted the vineyards on the old peach and apple orchard in 1951. The Lakewood Vineyard is situated on the west side of Seneca Lake was the ideal place for several varieties of grapes including the French-American hybrid and Labrusca. As time went on new hybrids were added along with Vinifera. The commercial grape industry was treating this grower well when Monty, son of Frank, decided in 1988 to press the grapes and create their first vintage. In 1989 the winery opened for tasting and sales. Now with 4 generations of wine making experience in the family, the secrets of the vines and earth are still in use but safe. The time-honored techniques including small barrels fermentation and aging are still in use today. This quality can be tasted and enjoyed by all that uncork a bottle of their fine wine.
Since this humble beginning the variety of wines and blends have increased to 20 while winning over 500 medals and trophies along the way. Located on the western slopes of Seneca Lake this winery along with the tasting room has a beautiful view of the lake. The operating hours are daily from 10am to 5pm and on Sunday from noon to 5pm.
