If you’ve ever gone wine tasting and heard all these different wine terms, words and phrases, but had no idea what any of it meant, don’t worry about it,
Today there are 400 wineries in New York and over 1,500 family vineyards. After California and Washington, New York holds third place in wine production, with 3.5% of the country’s output. Of course, sometimes less is more.
Vineyards in Long Island, the Niagara Escarpment, Lake Erie, and especially in the Finger Lakes region grow both white and red grapes. Riesling is king here, and it’s not only the most lusciously decadent sweet wine; dry wine is superb too and is up there with the best in the world.
You can’t get enough of enjoying wine in the region’s tasting rooms, but the Finger Lakes are much more than verdant vineyards.
Winter might be too cold for walking the vineyards through the Seneca Lake Wine Trail, but it’s skiing season, and that’s not so bad, is it? Both downhill and cross-country skiers flock from the city to the white postcard. Some love Bristol Mountain’s charm; others are loyal to Greek Peek. Skiing, snowboarding, or snow tubing, there’s something for everyone.
During the warm season, the Robert Treman State Park or the Taughannock Falls State Park are lovely outdoorsy options. Expect trekking, sightseeing, and just enjoying the fresh air. Who knew New York was so diverse?
New York has quite an impressive backyard. Wine and food are some of the most exclusive on the East Coast, but as always, it’s the people behind each wine label and every dish that makes the trip up-north worthwhile.
New York’s Wine is awesome, sure, but it’s just an excuse for everything to see and do up here. A cold paradise worth of cruising the country. Perhaps it’s time for a road trip!
