Excellent wine, food, and customer service. Make an appointment and plan to have a couple bottles with your friends. Don't forget to ask about the pet donkeys. read more

This winery is amazing! The wines are delicious and complex, they offer great deals for members, and the service is amazing! Our hostess was so pleasant and our waitress, Judy was a true delight! She was able to answer all our wine questions and made the experience a memorable one! We will definitely it's be back! Thanks Judy and the entire Ravines Wine team!! read more

We visited Ravines early last week. It happened to be a very busy Monday. They usually don't serve food on Mondays but Casey was very accommodating and put together some wonderful food for our group of six. She was friendly and provided great service. She made us feel welcome and made up for any wait time that we experienced (which was not a problem because it is such a beautiful place to sit back and relax.) read more

I gotta say it's pretty deceiving when you ride in to the tasting room, their gravel road and vintage barn look, may turn your nose up. But once you go in, the staff is friendly, the wine is divine, and their cafe /bistro great. We did the chocolate paring. They have a nice oaky Chardonnay which was paired with a sesame chocolate. Delicious!!! Also they have very good dry reds! Visiting from Virginia it's hard to find a good dry red here, but Ravines scored! read more

Located down a long stone road. Nice tasting room . The tasting person ( not sure what to call them) was a bit"odd". Takes fast, mumbled a lot and difficult to follow. Turned us off at first . This is why only 4 stars. Upside is wine was terrific! I bought 6 bottles and for me that is rare. Definitely worth a visit if you like good European style wine.. read more

Didn't care for the wine but that's not why it was given 2 stars. Unfortunately the owner was there when we showed up today. Our first encounter with him was him complaining that we didn't bring in our own glasses (we were on the wine & chocolate tour and out of the entire weekend I saw about 8 people using their glasses from check in) he then asked us what our preferences were...dry or sweet...when we said our tastes were on the sweeter side he told us to go down the street to the next winery. He was arrogant, his breath was bad and first impressions mean everything....and so do yelp reviews. read more

Still one of if not the best winery on the lake. Great selection of both white and red. Went home this time with the Dry Resiling 2014 and Sawmill Vineyard Pinot Noir 2014. read more

Charming winery and the food was delicious and creative. However, we were with a group and the $10.00 charge to taste 4 wines seemed a bit steep compared to the $2 or $3 that other wineries charged. Staff was nice overall, but a couple staff members were less than welcoming. Maybe it was because we were a group? Not sure. Worth the stop anyway... read more

We joined the wine club because we love their wine. Being a Member allows for 4x a year of wine release with amazing food Pairing tastings . Last time we went the wine makers gave us a tour of their production system and cellar, I've been to Bordeaux and Napa Valley... look out Ravines is better read more

My friend and I stopped by this winery on our way home from Niagara Falls and boy, I tell ya we should have more stops like this ! The wine and chocolate pairing was on par and they did compliment each other. They have a beautiful barn setting for a kitchen and wine drinking that's perfect for a sunny day, even a rainy day. Our favorite was their signature dry riesling, and my friend left with a bottle of it for later enjoyment. Drink responsibly! ;) read more

Great wines! Danny our server for the wine tasting was so knowledgeable, friendly and funny! I'd definitely go back.

Of six wineries we visited, by far, the best wines, as close as you can get to Napa and Sonoma Valley quality.

With other winery options in the area skip this place. There's not much seating and the staff is friendly during the tasting but it's not a great environment to buy a few bottles and enjoy their wines onsite. Go to three brothers winery if you're limited on time. read more

After driving down a quarter of a mile of road that felt like riding on a buckboard , even if we would have been in a Rolls Royce, I got to do a wine tasting with an employee (Ed) that acting as if he was doing my wife and I a favor by waiting on us ! He was very "robotic" in his presentation and was only interested in getting us to join their wine club ! The wine wasn't even that good ! read more

We only had time for one vineyard in the area, and are so happy we chose this one!!!!!! The wine and chocolate pairing was perfect, a nice twist on a traditional wine tasting! We were served by a very nice young man who was knowledgeable about the wines (in spite of his youth!!!) and fun to chat with. There are cute little donkeys behind the barn. The vineyard and the lengthy view of the region make for a gorgeous setting. read more

This place is not easy to find! They do have some nice wines though. I did find the Cab Franc blend that they did with new Cornell grape a hot, confusing mess. Some of their other wines were really good. I will be bring wine friends out for a tasting. read more

This weekend was the second time to this winery and it was just as good or even better than the first. This winery is off the main road but worth the trip to if you like wines that are on the dry side. They have both whites and reds to try. If my husband wasn't there to hold me back I would have bought a case. Will always go back to when I head to Seneca Lake. read more

Of the 4 wineries we visited in the finger lakes, I loved Ravine's wine the most. They make an awesome balanced dry Riesling, really refreshing Provençal style rose, and an orange Muscat that was not too sweet. Brendan was the dude pouring the tastings and he was great. If you visit this area I highly recommend stopping here. read more

Ravine was great, their selection of wine great and Andy was extremely knowledgeable! Ravine definitely knows how to treat tourists and those that just love a glass of wine and a humorous conversation. Thanks Andy for a memorable time at Ontario on the Lakes! read more

We had a great time with our host. She was very personable and as a result we learned a lot. It was by far the groups favorite reds of the day. Kueka Village Red 2014 was terrific! read more

This place is beautiful in soooo many ways! I'm enamored by the barn and tasting room, the staff and the wine. Recently, on a Friday night, I saw live music here in the barn - it was full of both locals and tourists and the acoustic music sounded so beautiful. I sipped on Ravines Pinot Noir and enjoyed a delicious seasonal dish (with pumpkin and ricotta cheese - yum!). The wines blow me away with each new vintage. I'm quite familiar with the Finger Lakes wines and am so appreciative to live near such talented winemakers. Ravines is one of the top producers in the area, year after year, in my humble opinion! Thanks to the staff who are so friendly and gracious! This is a MUST stop on your wine trip if you're visiting from a local spot OR in from out of town! read more

This was the first stop on our visit. It can be tricking to find. The GPS sends you in on a private road that is blocked. The correct entrance is off of Pre Emption Rd. The shop is smallish with a lovely outdoor covered seating area. Fortunately for us the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. They took the time to describe not only their wines but also the uniqueness of wines from the whole area. They focus on drier wines, all of which we're top notch. read more

Phenomenal winery, it's a hidden gem since it's not on the main road. It's a must if you like dry whites. I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I do. Make sure to try their Riesling! read more

OMG!!!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this awesome place!!! The radically distinctive ambiance rivals any other Winery! Creative, genius "Barn Setting", makes this place captivating! From the moment my husband & I had walked in, the atmosphere had just swept us away! We were greeted by the most AMAZING, warm, sweet, professional, well versed wine enthusiast named "Patrizia"! She really new her stuff!!! Her well defined, broad spectrum on all things wine; had us both captivated as well as mesmerized! My husband opted for a "Chocolate Pairing", while I had scooted on over to the chocolate section of the gift shop! I was in Heaven from the Artisan Sesame milk chocolate bark!! In fact, I had ended up purchasing quit a few bags for gifts!! On our long drive home, I am guilty of indulging in a full bag on my own!! Addictive and delicious!!! We will be certain, to return back here next year!!! Anyone visiting Geneva New York, MUST stop by here!!! Thank you Patrizia, for you graciousness and warm hospitality!!!! Warmest regards, Ava Angelina & Bryan Thomas read more

We had a great experience at Ravines. We enjoyed the Ravinous table lunch food & wine pairing and it was awesome. Casey took great care of us from the minute we entered the winery. The food was fabulous farm to table style and the wines were well paired to make for a spectacular experience. This is a must stop on your finger lakes wine tour. read more

Editing: from 2 stars to 4. I finally got to talk to Patty at Ravines, and she gave me a much clearer picture of what's happening behind the scenes and worked very well to accommodate us! I hope it works out because it sounds like a lovely experience! ______________________________________________________________ I have no idea how there wine tastes, because after calling 4 times (once per day for 4 days - being told I would get a call back) I finally was just told there was simply no way to accommodate me. I am still unclear why no one could tell me that the first time I called, or try to make up for wasting my time. If your policy is to call to make group reservations, you should have people answering the phone who are capable of that. read more

I was highly disappointed with this place. Looking at the Yelp reviews I was expecting a better experience. When we arrived we were told which table to stand out to wait to be served. We stood there for at least 5 minutes before being acknowledged. A group of 6 came in a few minutes after us and were served wine before we even had a tasting menu. The server then asked us to move tables because it was more convenient for her. At that point we should have just saved our money and left. The wines all tasted very acidic and nothing stuck out. Not much information was given regarding the wines either. read more

What a phenomenal experience! Had a great time learning about and tasting many of their wines. The employee (forget her name but she was very knowledgeable) was attentive and invested in ensuring a great time. She also provided tips about other wineries to check out which were spot on. Beautiful scenery and indoor space as well. Ended up buying several bottles. Ravines was my favorite winery on my trip! read more

Our favorite winery from our Finger Lakes trip! If you like dry wines like we do, just head straight here! We loved both reds and whites, and the service was prompt, knowledgeable, and friendly. Tough to narrow down our purchases as we liked everything we tasted. My husband loves dry reds and had to buy the maximilien. I like dry whites and enjoyed the dry reisling, sauv blanc, Gewürztraminer, and Pinot rose. Nice setting in a large barn and charcuterie tray looked great but we weren't hungry enough to get it this time. So many wineries in Finger Lakes to try but do not miss this one! read more

Excellent wines here with a most helpful staff. Highly recommend a stop here and try some of their dry reds which is not typical for this area. read more

This is a fine vineyard for the finger lakes. Good Pinot Noir and dry Riesling. Not the friendliest staff, clearly caters to the spendy out of towners. read more

Ravines was our favorite winery on the western side of Seneca lake! Their chocolate/wine pairing was amazing and their Dry Pinot Rose 2016 our favorite wine of day! read more

Came to finger lakes for a weekend getaway, visited about 8 wineries on our trip and this was our favorite. Wine maker is clearly talented and European style of wine making is clearly detectable. Tasting room is elegant and simple. Favorites were the Chardonnay (complex and buttery), Keuka village red (awesomely peppery) , and Meritage. Staff was knowledgable and friendly. Definitely make this a stop if you're on the Seneca wine trail. read more

Loved Ravines!! We also had the cheese and meat board while enjoying a glass of rose, delicious. Great wines, we ended up buying several to bring home. The staff was nice as well. Definitely go here if you are looking for good wines and an intimate tasting experience. Would want to go back to try their Ravenous Table experience. read more

Went tasting here with my husband and really enjoyed ourselves. They had a good variety of wine and some of it was pretty tasty. It was tough to make a decision about what to purchase. The staff was friend and the mood was very rustic. We didn't try the the food, but the menu looked good. Maybe next time! read more

Ok so let me start off by saying. OMG we loved this winery. My GF and I spent a great weekend in Geneva. We hit quite a few wineries. We enjoyed all of them. I will say that this was our favorite of them all. Not only were the wines tasty, but the food was AMAZING! Combine that with the wonderful friendly and helpful staff, it was a perfect stop for us. WE liked it so much, we just had to stop on our way back home . read more

Fantastic wines (Riesling and gewurztraminer in particular) and great people. Don't miss it.

Charming! Beautiful light and airy space in a converted barn, looking out across the vineyards and amazing skies (when the weather is good). They have a small kitchen and food offerings that are very good - don't bother eating before the visit. We shared the pork belly sandwich and reisling lamb sausage - both were delicious. The wines are hit or miss, but consistent with many of the finger lakes wineries, they do nice dessert whites for very reasonable cost. A wonderful way to spend an afternoon. The staff is great. I would return! read more

We have been to Ravine's many times and have never been disappointed. The staff is consistently excellent, the food is marvelous and the wine: what can I say? Really appreciated Sunday's wine/cheese/chocolate tastings and the benefits of the Ravinous Club discount and free tastings. Really don't want to see the road paved, but maybe rolled a time or two? Keep up the great work. read more

We visited as part of a wine tour for a bachelorette party. The wines are all dry so if you prefer sweet I wouldn't visit here. The setting is absolutely beautiful. It has a rustic look and a beautiful view. Our tasting was done by Danny who was wonderful. He was a lot of fun and took a lot of pictures for us. read more
