The tasting room is simply gorgeous. I like to go to this winery just to look around - I have never been in warmer weather but I imagine it is wonderful to sit here with a glass of wine and enjoy the sun and the views. We were like second group in at 10:00 AM and the team here was ready to greet us and walk us through our tastings with little anecdotes about the wine, winery and local intel - it's just a beautiful stop. Insider Tip! We didn't so it this time, but the last time we were here, they let you use the barrel room and bring in outside food if you are tasting - which was a great way for us to picnic indoors and refuel on a day of visiting the wineries! Really great experience! read more

Came by to enjoy a wine flight. You get 4 wines for $15, which is about standard. There are lots of snack options to accompany your tasting. The space is great. Modern, lots of space inside and outside. We camped outside and enjoyed the cornhole (2 sets outside). Great spot to check out - NY State Winery of the Year for 2022, 2024, & 2025 read more

Weis Vineyards - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Hammondsport, New York

We enjoyed our tasting with Christine. The wines were lovely and she made some great recommendations. It's beautiful space.

Weis is one of our favorite wineries in the FLX area. Their dry Riesling and dry reds are the standouts. We were here on a packed Saturday afternoon. Ordering was efficient and easy and the food and wine came out quickly. I was initially skeptical about flight pours coming in small bottles, mainly because I can be a wine snob, but also because good wine deserves to be enjoyed in the proper way! The wine was excellent and it tasted just as good out of a small bottle as it did when poured from the actual bottle. My wife and I were here a few years ago after they opened and it's nice to see them expand without sacrificing quality. We took some bottles home and we will definitely return! read more

Had a fantastic experience at Weis Vineyards, which was recommended by many for us to try on this trip to the Finger Lakes. Cody was friendly and knowledgeable. His insights made the visit even more enjoyable. He even suggested some great lunch spots around the Finger Lakes. The wine tasting is $15, and you get to keep the glass, which is great! Generous pours and a private, relaxed tasting bar made for a great atmosphere. We sampled several of their standout wines, including selections from past vintages, and I enjoyed most of them. The space is beautiful--clean and modern with warm wood accents throughout. Their cellar is located underground, which you can see as you walk over the glass floors. Plenty of parking available right out front on gravel, so access was easy. No surprise they were named New York Winery of the Year in 2022 and 2024. Definitely worth the visit if you're in the area. read more

Spending the week in the Finger Lakes area and stumbled upon Weis Vineyards! We loved it so much, we decided to come back again today! The space is gorgeous, plenty of seating inside and outside. They are dog friendly both inside and outside. Workers are super friendly and helpful. Flights are $15 for 4, which is fairly priced. Our favorite was the blush! read more

Weis Vineyards - Flight (select four) - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Hammondsport, New York

This was our second visit , first in 2022, and now the beautiful winery space appears finished! We visited at 1:30 on a beautiful Friday afternoon and grabbed a glass of wine and two Adirondack chairs. The lake view is almost unobstructed and the outdoor seating is very peaceful. We did not order a tasting but there are two tasting rooms that also offer lake views. The winery is modern with rich wood furniture and finish, a minimalist design and various glass floors with lower level views. We saw several tasty snacks available from chips and Hedonist chocolates and a cooler with cheese and curds. Other groups brought their own bento boxes and charcuterie boards to enjoy. I loved my sparkling Perle Rose and bought a few bottles to go. We were very impressed with this winery and I imagine this will be our regular Keuka wine trail trip. read more

Fantastic rieslings in a gorgeous setting with great people! Loved it. We lived in Germany, and Weis vibes like a German winery but more mod. The winemaker from Germany and brought along Zum Wohl... yes indeed. Just go! read more

Absolutely ADORE Weis! The atmosphere is very relaxing and modern with gorgeous lake views. Covered outdoor, outdoor Adirondack chairs and picnic tables and inside seating. The food was amazing (sausage plate) and the wine is one of the best in the finger lakes. Check this place out, even if you have to drive over an hour - it will be worth it! read more

I felt it was time to update my review as a club member who lives nearly 5.5 hours southeast of Weis Vineyards. Every time we're in the area, we make it a point to stop by, sample what's new, and stock up on our favorites. Plus, whenever we can pick up our club order in person rather than having it shipped, it's a must! It was great to see the new expansion at the winery. I love how we first visited Weis in 2017, and eight years later, they continue to grow and evolve. This place never disappoints. It was also exciting to see that they were once again named 2024 Governor's Cup winners and 2024 Winery of the Year--clear proof that they are doing something right. Today, I sampled the 2023 Gewürztraminer, which had aromas of ripe lychee, apricot, lime, and spice--always a favorite of ours. Given the region, this and Riesling are truly among the best. Next, I tried the 2022 Zweigelt, Austria's most widely planted red grape. This one was special to me since my ancestry traces back to Austria. It reminded me of a Pinot Noir--bright, tart, and fruit-forward. I then moved on to the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon, which had rich aromatics of blackberry, black cherry, peppercorn, and a hint of earthiness. A perfect pairing for meats and cheese. From there, I explored the wine club exclusives, starting with the Blaufränkisch, always a favorite of mine. Growing in a colder climate gives it a unique character--elegant and structured, but not as bold as a warm-climate red from California. Lastly, I tried the 2022 Saperavi, which I had never sampled before. The server explained that this grape originates from Georgia (the country, not the state!). With an alcohol content ranging from 10.5% to 12.5%, Saperavi produces deep red wines that are well-suited for aging. Though predominantly grown in Georgia and Russia, it has made its way into Europe and, more importantly, to New World wine regions like the Finger Lakes and Niagara. This wine stood out with its earthy and spicy notes, hints of tobacco, leather, and black pepper, and subtle touches of vanilla and cocoa from barrel aging. As always, it was a fantastic visit. This time, we left with some much-needed Weis Vineyards hoodies to represent back home in Pittsburgh, PA. Cheers! Looking forward to our next visit in 2025. This makes 1,500 review on Yelp, and couldn't imagine anywhere else to do it at. read more

Beautiful tasting room and modern facilities. $12 for 5 tastings and with the 2 of us, we tried almost everything on the menu. My favorites were the Gruner Veltliner, Gewurztraminer, Perle and the Schulhaus White. The Hubby loved the Winzer Select Riesling. Beautiful surroundings, great wine and you get to keep your wine glasses. read more

WOW! I almost don't want to tell people about this gem. First our Taste Guide Marie was wonderful and she should be given a raise. She really pulled the entire experience together, just like the Dude's rug. Wines were very tasty and I can't wait until I visit the liquor store to purchase some bottle. Great tasting rooms providing an outstanding view of Keuka Lake. read more

On a drive around Keuka Lake we stopped at this vineyard, but due to ongoing construction and its popularity we had to park in an unpaved area far removed from the winery proper. On entering the winery it seemed a bit hectic so we decided to forego the opportunity for a tasting and just purchase a chilled bottle of its 2022 Gewurztraminer. Later that night we enjoyed the wine and thought it was the best Gewurztraminer we tasted on our vacation to the Finger Lakes. read more

Our wine server Cory was fantastic... even before he knew I was a case club member.. he was so knowledgeable and helpful.. great experience.. we brought first timers who absolutely loved the place and Cory impressed them.. then I went to get my case club allotment .. the person at the register was anything but helpful or nice... I felt I was bothering her.. I wanted to add extra bottles to my purchase and I was a major issue.. if I didn't love Weiss and their wine and have a great experience with Cory .. I am not sure I would be back.. read more

We stopped for a wine tasting on a Fall Saturday afternoon. The property is under construction be careful to go around, we made the mistake of following the side walk but that only leads up to a new facility that has yet to open and a size able drop off. Once inside we were greeted and were informed a 15-20 minute wait time but that we could walk around in the meantime. We went to the downstairs waiting area and sat at a table although there was ample room for tastings. I thought this was a bit strange but enjoyed the beautiful view while waiting. We were eventually seated at a packed bar upstairs for the tasting. Service was very friendly, and informative of wines and the business. No cheese, fruit, charcuterie's, or food appeared to be available, which was surprising considering it is a larger establishment. My friend has a wine membership and purchased a case. She has a back injury and was not offered any assistance carrying the case to the vehicle. Having pairings available with tastings, and offering assistance would have improved our experience, but non the less we enjoyed this Winery and look forward to seeing what the expansion will add. read more

During our annual trip to the FLX, we always make sure to stop at Weis. The owners, Peter and Ashlee, are always very welcoming. Their white wines are the best in the NY area IMO. Our first year here, Peter did our tasting and we learned so much about his family history rooted in winemaking, his schooling, and his vision of handcrafting traditional German-style wines. The vineyard is perfectly situated on Keuka Lake and they have some amazing views from their patio area. I love the decor and modern/neutral design throughout the main building. This is the perfect spot to share a bottle of wine (or two) with some family and friends and soak in the views. read more

This was the favorite stop for our group of 6. The wines were excellent. The sommelier, Alyssa, was knowledgeable and friendly. We enjoyed the white wines and purchased several. The picnic area was very cute and our next trip will be to use that area and drink a few bottles. Their gift shop was cute as well. This was our first visit to Weis and we thoroughly enjoyed it. We'd enjoyed a lovely bottle of their wine at dinner the night before so our visit was perfectly timed! Bright tasting room with a simple bar seating area and nice view of the lake. Enjoyed learning about the history of the winery and how Peter Weis found similarities to his home in Germany and decided to stay and start his own vineyard. Particularly enjoyed the Zweigelt Dry Rose and the unoaked Chardonnay. Really nice experience and will return next year. read more

The first time I came into contact with Weis Vineyards was at the Buffalo Home Show. I was excited to go to their vineyards on Keuka Lake and try out the tasting room. I really liked the vibes of the tasting room and the view out the window is breathtaking. The tasting is pretty pricey and the pours are pretty tiny compared to other wineries charging the same price for tastings. I purchased 4 bottles of wine to avoid the $12 tasting fee, because that makes sense. I really enjoyed the wines I picked out. read more

I've been wanting to try Weis for years (we always came when the wait was too long - no reservations) and finally stopped by early on a Sunday and got to do a tasting! Our favorites were the Gruner Veltliner and Dry Rose. The view of the lake from the tasting bar is beautiful and we enjoyed watching the sailboats. Our pourer was knowledgeable, professional, and offered us his opinions. We also enjoyed playing cornhole afterwards! read more

Now we have a memento of our trip and will definitely be back again in the future. read more

Great wine, great service and really beautiful tasting room with great views. Highly recommend!

In all honesty, I am not a wine snob/connoisseur/regular drinker of wine. Weis Winery could change that, as the wines themselves were a nice selection that hit the right notes of my palette. Staff was very friendly and offered a number of options for how to taste the wine. The choices varied, but there seems to be a great selection that each person can find something they like. The view was beautiful from there and the aesthetic was nice. Recommend trying here! read more

Great experience at the bar with my server! I would recommend this place for anyone who has a love for white wines as I found many dry white wines here that suits my taste. I also really enjoyed their rose as well I had to buy several bottles back home. They say that the ice wine is what they're known for but it is a VERY sweet wine so be ALARMED if you do not like sweet wine. I was recommended this but I wish I got another wine I enjoyed more. read more

We came from MD on a girl's trip. We had heard great things about this vineyard and it did not disappoint. Such a pretty tasting room! The patio has plenty of seating and views for days of the lake. They are renovating to create more space and I can only imagine how pretty that space will be. We enjoyed a flight and we got to choose what we wanted in the flight (I hate the preselected flights). I'm a dry fan. I enjoyed the vintages I tried and felt everything was balanced and flavorful, the staff was super friendly and helpful (thanks Delaney for great service) and they did a great job to get me excited about their wines. I left with 6 bottles that I can't wait to share with my husband when I get home. Thanks Weis! read more

This was our first stop of the day and it was a hit. The building opened Memorial Day 2021 and the winery has only been around 4 years but don't let their youth fool you, this place is a gem. The view from the tasting bar was spectacular. Our wine host was knowledgeable and friendly. Tastings are walk in and we got there right when they opened at 10 am so no wait but there was a large bachelorette party arriving as we left so please note that. Tastings are $10. They include a glass and 5 tastings of your choice. I didn't have a bad wine but my favorites were the Gruner Veltiliner and Unoaked Chardonnay. Others in my group highly recommend the Slate Terroir Riesling, and the Riesling Reserve K, and Zwwigelt Rose. The owner / winemaker is from Mosel Germany and he and his family run and own the winery. They also have a cute baby you can see crawling on the premises. This also means they are about as kid friendly as a winery can be. By this I mean they have lots of outdoor seating, cornhole and changing tables in the restroom. It is unlikely I would bring my child to a winery but if you had to this one would be a better choice than most. Overall fabulous wine in a beautiful setting. Highly recommend. read more

This is hands down my favorite vineyard in the Finger Lakes. The winemaker, Peter Weis, has a masterful understanding of the region, it's grapes and their best suited winemaking techniques, which enables the finest expressions in your glass. Their staff has always been extremely friendly and their winery is situated in an area with breathtaking views. I was fortunate enough to have a bottle of their 2020 Noble Select Riesling for my birthday and it was astounding. This is a trockenbeerenauslese style which is a rarity for this region and Weis' Noble Select is a shining example of this highly regarded dessert wine. I purchased a second bottle to hold onto in my cellar and I'm very excited to explore this wine again in a couple of decades. This is one of the few wineries I've felt compelled to become a member at. I believe that if there's one winery you have to choose to showcase FLX wine, Weis is a solid choice. I've taken many friends and family members here when showing them the region and no matter their wine preferences, I have yet to see anyone leave unhappy. read more

Weis is the best in Hammondsport! Joe was excellent that served us at wine tasting. He was nice, professional, and really knew the wine industry. His facilities were top notch and so clean.

Really great winery! It has indoor and outdoor seating picnic tables with some lawn games as well. We came with a large group and ended up having a private personalized tasting in one of their tasting rooms. Our server was very attentive and took his time with each tasting 5 for $12 and even offered a bonus tasting of his favorite wine. Would definitely come back and try more of their wines. read more

Only the usual winery snacks available, I would recommend the cheese curds and fancy crackers. Since I was only tasting dry rosé's this trip, we just bought a bottle so they moved us from the tasting bar to "the barn". The view of Keuka lake from the barn was a lovely treat and we were told to keep the winery glasses as well. The wine was very nice and the winery had a good selection of shirts, hoodies and souvenirs. Atmosphere was great and service was quite good too. read more

I visited Weis this weekend during a weekend in the Finger Lakes and we all agreed it was one of our favorite wineries of the weekend!
