Wagner Vineyards Estate Winery is one of the oldest and most recognized wineries in the Finger Lakes Region of upstate New York. Centrally located on the eastern shore of Seneca Lake, Wagner Vineyards has been one of the region’s most popular wine tasting destinations since opening in 1979.
The winery was also awarded one of the best Riesling producers with 3 of their wines getting 90+ points by top sommeliers and wine directors of the USA at the 2020 Sommeliers Choice Awards.
They are 100% estate-bottled, utilizing only the sustainably-grown grapes on their 225-acre farm in their wines. Their Riesling plantings are the largest and most diverse in the region, boasting sites of varying elevation, clones, and age, including a still-thriving 42-year-old block.
A unique opportunity to present your wines to America's top sommeliers. The wine scores are benchmarked for on-premise channels by top sommeliers, master sommeliers, wine directors and restaurant wine buyers. Submission deadline is April 24.
