Seneca Lake is special for many reasons. There’s the beautiful waterfalls, the gorgeous vineyards, the quaint small towns, creameries and agritourism, great restaurants and farm-to-table fare, and of course, the lake itself. But we are also home to more wineries than just about any wine region east of the Rockies. Do you find yourself wondering why all these wineries popped up on Seneca Lake in particular? Our Stories of Seneca will help answer these and many other questions, as we go behind the scenes with winery owners and winemakers from around the lake.

Some we’ll ask 5 questions. Others have elected to write their own brief story. Either way, you’ll be fascinated by the results. Enjoy!
