Back from AUS

Another busy harvest season is wrapped, and it was a fantastic one! Aside from making wine [old favorites and LOTS of new ones], we also worked on launching Living Roots in Australia. We’ve been making our wines there since February 2016, but most everything has been shipped back to New York – until now!

We hosted launch events, met with distributors and wine writers, and set up a cellar door [by appointment only] on our family’s vineyard where we also have our little winery.

Our first shipment of Finger Lakes wines should arrive in Australia any day now, and we’re so excited to start sharing our wines there!

ROC + FLX Updates

Summer in Upstate New York is pretty special, and if you haven’t visited the Finger Lakes before, we highly encourage it! Our seasonal tent on our family’s Shale Creek Vineyard [8560 County Rd 87, Hammondsport, New York] overlooking Keuka Lake [as seen in this pack’s video] is back, and we’re loving spending more time among the vines. Our FLX Pop-Up is open noon to 6p every weekend [Friday – Sunday] through October. Taste through our wines under the tent or enjoy a glass around the fire pits! No reservations needed.

In Rochester, our latest news is that the bar is back open for standing room and walk-ins, AND we’ve added a little patio if you’re looking to sit outside. It’s been a wild year and a half, but it’s great to see things getting back to normal!
