Sample a little taste of the Finger Lakes at Americana Vineyards.

As one of the founding wineries of the Cayuga Lake Wine Trail, Americana Vineyards has been filling glasses for nearly forty years. They offer over 20 varieties of wine in a rustic and natural setting. Step back in time as you enter their tasting room and gift shop located in a restored 1820s swing barn. And don’t miss the downstairs taproom featuring craft beer from Bacchus Brewing Company.

After a long day of tasting great wine and exploring the vineyard grounds, stop by their onsite restaurant, the Crystal Lake Cafe. They pride themselves on using only local, fresh Finger Lakes ingredients. Their hand-packed burgers and wine-inspired desserts are especially popular and they even host regular live music.

When it comes to the wine, the deep, flavorful Pinot Noir and the silky smooth Cabernet Franc are two of the most popular reds. And their award-winning Chardonnay and often sold out semi-dry Riesling are among the favorite whites.
