Welcome to Fox Run Vineyards!
We offer in-depth tours of the vineyard and winemaking facility, a friendly and knowledgeable staff, and a Café with a fully house-made menu. Fox Run is family-owned and has been making estate wines since 1989. And we live by the motto: Drink wine, be happy.
Located on the West side of Seneca Lake, Fox Run is family-owned and has been making estate wines since 1989. Fox Run Vineyards strives to make wine approachable. We believe anyone should be able to enjoy a glass of wine regardless of where they are on the wine experience spectrum.
We’re proud to be a lake-friendly farmer, operating on self-generated solar-powered energy. And we live by the motto: Drink wine, be happy.
Our tasting room is open daily, join us for a wine tasting (we do not accept or require reservations)! Please visit our website to view our policies and what to expect when visiting us.

Our tasting fee is $10 for a flight of five wines (you can choose from 4 different options: sweet, dry, red, or Rieslings). Wine tastings are seated at our indoor tasting bar. Self-guided wine flights are also available to enjoy at your own pace. Elevate your tasting to a Taste Buds Flight! This flight plays on the connection between food, wine, and the 5 taste receptors – salty, sour, sweet, bitter, and umami. We’ve paired 5 preselected wines with 5 bites to awaken your senses and challenge your palate. $20/person, no reservations required-just ask at the tasting bar!
Learn the ins and outs of viticulture and winemaking with a guided, 45-minute walking tour exploring our vineyards and taking a peek inside our winemaking facility. Tours are $15 for adults, $5 for children under 15, and free for children under 5. We offer tours every day of the week, all year long (weather permitting). Tours go out every hour, on the hour. The first tour departs at 10 AM, and the last tour at 4 PM. No reservations required.
Learn more about food and wine pairing through our Food and Wine Experience!
You’ll enjoy a unique, personalized tour with a light lunch focused on food and wine pairing. Owners Scott and Ruth will join you for lunch, served in our historic barrel room—a restored dairy barn from the 1800s. Offered on Fridays, from July-Oct., at 11:30 AM. Reservations required. Or join us for a private VIP tour with the owner, Scott Osborn, and a tasting that includes wines from the entire Fox Run portfolio. Additionally, Chef Brud Holland will create a special cheese and charcuterie board just for you to enjoy and pair with the wines. This unique opportunity is a great way to get to know the real people behind the wines, and have an incredibly personalized experience in the Finger Lakes. Due to space restrictions, we are unable to schedule VIP Tours on Saturdays until further notice. Visit the Fox Run website to see a listing of other special events, from live music to winemakers’ dinners.
You can enjoy a delicious, locally-sourced lunch at our Cafe – all house-made. Or feel free to grab a glass of wine or self-guided wine flight. Relax on our new front deck overlooking Seneca Lake, or on our back patio/lawn under a pergola with a view of the vines next to a cozy fire pit. Check out the menu!
The Seneca Lake Wine Trail is easily accessible and convenient to get to! Whether you are a New Yorker coming in for the day or traveling from farther away, we are an experience you won’t want to miss!
