Please join us for “WWS Does Keuka West” on Saturday, May 10. It will be a wonderful excursion with Holly Howell.
Our tour will begin at Heron Hill Winery, where we will have the privilege of tasting with the Winemaker Barnard Cannac. In addition, resident history expert Blaine Mays will catch us up on the unique past of Keuka Lake and its contributions to the Finger Lakes Wine Industry.
The next stop will be Dr. Frank’s, where we will have a tour with Meaghan Frank (fourth generation), the first woman in the Frank family who will eventually take hold of the tradition set forth by her legendary great-grandfather, Konstantin.
After that, we should be hungry and will head to the Harvest and Artists Market, where we will have a feast of wood-fired pizzas. A few extra bonuses – Mike Countryman from Point of the Bluff will treat us to a tasting of his latest releases, including some Rieslings that will blow your mind. There will be time to shop the incredible array of artisans (soaps, candles, skin care, stained glass, organic produce and meats, pottery, metal works and more).
Our final stop will be at Hunt Country, for their Chocolate and Wine tasting, featuring 4 pairings of their wines with Hedonist Chocolates!
We will meet the bus at Eastview at 9am and return there by 5pm.
Registration: Members and non-members are invited to join us! Everyone is welcome to come on this adventure! The cost is $65 per person, which includes the cost for the wineries, lunch, the bus and the gratuity for the driver. Registration closes May 7.
