    Attended a gorgeous wedding here! The space was amazing and plenty of room for all of the guests…read more(80ish) to move around during cocktail hour. I did not drink, but all of my friends said the drinks were great and we love that they had local wine and seltzers available. There was a nice porta potty truck- clean and stocked with personal care items. I appreciate how the ceremony could easily be moved inside the white tent if needed!

    We attended the vineyard for a private event. Although the place is charming, that is where the…read morepositives end. The staff ranged from openly rude and hostile to apathetic. There was a board welcoming the guests when you walked around to the event area and the hosts names were incorrect on it.The grass was not mowed, which was dangerous, especially for women with heels. There were no water pitchers or water glasses at the guest tables. The only water available was a serve yourself container of tapwater with plastic glasses at the bar. There wasn't enough food for everyone at the event. The pizzas were bland and soggy on the bottom. Pizzas go on the bottom of the pizza oven, not on racks inside the pizza oven. The only other things served for dinner were pasta and meatballs and a bruschetta platter. The pasta was undercooked, and the sauces were on the bland side. I didn't bother with the bruschetta. The event was outside and although during the day it was reasonably warm, it was freezing after sundown. Don't they have heaters for outside events? Overall, there was just no real organization for this event on the behalf of the vendor. It was obvious to me that they treated this event and its hosts like they didn't spend enough money on it. You really shouldn't be treating guests a certain way based on how much they spend at your venue. That is not what hospitality is about. My advice would be to send everyone employed to hospitality training and to learn how to make food properly.

    This winery has been operating since 2010 and my wife and I have made the one hour drive to get…read morenumerous times the past few years since discovering it. It's a small batch farm winery and OMG they have the wines dialed in! Whites, reds, fruity, cooking, dry, sweet... so much variety and the grapes are actually grown here too - not just bought somewhere else and processed. It amazes me how many options and varieties they continue to offer! There's a whole better experience have a tasting when the maker is the one serving and can tell you EVERYTHING about it. One of my most favorite things about the wines here is that I never get a headache. These wines are not overloaded with sulfites like the bulk wines at distributors and stores. Their prices continue to stay in the 10's to teens range even though it apparently makes it harder to keep things running at a time everyone is tightening their wallets with everything else costing more. When it comes to owner-operated wineries, Hummingbird Hills Winery is a whole new level in quality and enjoyment when expertise meets love and passion in wine making, which is why my wife and I keep making the trip here to re-taste and restock. They've even added an off-grid getaway cabin on their property nestled up on a hilltop in an old apple orchard that they list as The Nests at Hummingbird Hills. It's so quiet there and with so little light pollution the stars during the night are amazing!

    Had a wonderful time at Hummingbird Hills Winery on Sunday afternoon. A tasting that was…read moreeducational and involved a lot of unique flavors. Quality: While I didn't fall in love with any particular wine at Hummingbird Hills Winery, the experience gave me a greater appreciation for the creativity and challenges involved in the process. They had a few standard white and red wines, but the menu is filled with lots of fruit wines and specialty wines. Bink's Blackberry Burst was a highlight of the fruit wines, really capturing the blackberry flavor. The speciality wines are even more unique, Goofy Garlic Ginger, Hummingbird Coco Red, and Lion's Tooth Blend, which is a Dandelion Wine. Each one with a cool story and history. Quantity: Wine Tasting came with seven selections, and we ended up trying a few more. Value: $10 for a Wine Tasting. Ambiance: Hummingbird Hills Winery is located in upstate New York, not too far from Albany. They have a large property where they grow their own grapes, and flowers. The tasting room is in a large building. It has bars on both sides with plenty of stools for guests to utilize. Reusable boards and markers allow guests to make their selections so the process moves smoothly. The rest of the tasting room is full of local food items and crafts. Crowd: Several other couples and one family enjoying tastings. Service: Incredible, two passionate and creative individuals running this winery. Parking: The snow forced them to move parking away from their main buildings and near a garage.
