The Hazlitt 1852 Vineyards
The Hazlitt 1852 Vineyards might only have been selling wines for just over 12 years but has a history dating back to 1852. From this family is a great line of wineries including the Great Western Winery of years past. As time moves forward the original farm and vineyards have been pieced out among the family members. Another vineyard in the area that is owned by another part of this same family is the Sawmill Creek Vineyard. The family members that own Hazlitt 1852 Vineyard are Jerry and Elaine Hazlitt. The experience and dedication of this winery comes from six generations of nurturing grape vines and operating wineries. They even remember the old foot stomping press way of make wine.
The tasting experience at the horseshoe bar in the tasting room is time well spent. The knowledgeable staff is friendly and accommodating. Visitors year round will enjoy a wonderful atmosphere. In the warmer months customers not only enjoy fine New York wines but also horses that run free in the bordering pasture. You will also never forget the view of Seneca Lake while sipping the fine wines. The winery and tasting bar is open year round daily from 10am to 5pm and on Sundays from 11 am to 5pm.
Available at the tasting room are a wide variety of wines including Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, Schooner White, Homestead Reserve Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Riesling, White Stag, White Cat, Syrah, Schooner Red, Bramble Berry, Cabin Fever, Red Cat and Port.
