    Had an amazing experience here for wine tastings. Brought my family there were 5 of us and we got a server all to ourselves. They give you a list of all their wines they offer to taste and you get to pick 5 for 6$. Every wine we tasted we loved and between all 5 of us We got to taste all their dry ones and sweet ones. They give you big tastings we shared some among each other. The server even brought us other random ones we didnt even ask for just to try because she said we would like them. She was right. The server was great and so accommodating and really knew the wines. A little mom and pop place that a husband and wife own. They even have a party/event room for bridal showers or parties or weddings. Highly recommend taking the trip to visit here!

    Stopped in briefly as part of the "Christmas Around the World" Lake Ontario Wine Trail Tour/event. This location was by far the most organized and well prepared for the event. They had a separate room with tables set for guests to sit and relax and enjoy the food and drink experience. They had a great hand out with a description of what you were consuming and how it was part of the culture they were representing. The food was all delicious-they really took the time to find quality, authentic ingredients, and the staff was truly outstanding. Definitely one of my favorite and most relaxing spots on the tour. We will definitely be back!

    Alright here we go, I thought we were tripping but just saw a couple of other reviews and I see…read morethis is a problem. The bartender/waitress customer service is unacceptable; okay so when my gf walked into the bar she walked up and sat in the middle waiting to order flight of ciders. The bartender ignored her. There was a couple that was there before my gf so she took care of them (understandable). There were two other couples that walked in after my gf, they then sat at each end of the bar to order (there's 3 orders to be taken atp and my gf should be next). The bartender skipped my gf even tho she was there first, waiting right in the middle area of the bar to order (bartender walked each end of the bar and ignore the person in the middle? ) After she took care of the couples, another couple walked in and she immediately took care of them again "u closing ur tap? Let me help u" (while my gf still waits). After everyone got their drinks and walked outside, my gf was able to order the drinks. Idk what was the issue, my gf and I were the only POC there (there is a racist reputation online for the town of Penfield. Look it up) I hate to say that was the reason but idk. The view there was very beautiful but sad we had unfortunate experience. #ZeroTipExperience

We have been going to Colloca for about 5 years. We look forward going a couple times each summer. In the beginning it was a great experience. It was clean, food was very good with a fair price. the past 4 visits over the last 2 years we can see how the quality has diminished. Last year I went and around the bar the trash bins were overflowing causing trash on the floor blowing everywhere. The staff knew this and din nothing. At the same time wine started to be served in plastic cups and at a higher price. This year I took my sister and her Bf from AZ there and it was a joke. The wait for food was a long long time and when it came it was not up to the same quality as in the past. I was sorry I wasted my sisters night here. We gave it another try last week. Still plastic cups with and even higher price. The pizza I ordered was the Americano but they were out of meatballs. The pizza itself was a joke. Burnt crust with so many airholes it look like caves built into the pizza for stuffing. A total waste. We are done with Colloca for this season and I doubt I will be waiting all winter to go there next spring. Whoever they hired to manage that area and the chef of the kitchen should be fired NOW.

    So not gonna lie, we can be real wine snobs. My partner and I love going to wine country. We've…read morebeen to the Finger Lakes a few times and we actually haven't been to a winery with wine that we actually like. The scenery is always lovely. But the wine? Well, it's just not at all to our taste typically. But this was the first winery in the Finger Lakes that we actually enjoyed. Not only that, many of the tastes we tried were good. We stuck mostly to the most dry wines they had. We had their classic Riesling and it was good. We don't even usually enjoy Rieslings but this was dry and hit the spot on a hot day. There is very limited food here. On our visit, they had a charcuterie board with cheese. The meat was tasty. We didn't love the cheese but I was so hungry that I ended up eating most of it. It also came with candied almonds that were incredibly spicy and some crackers. Again, super starving so ate it all. Our server was friendly though his tastes weren't exactly to ours as it seemed liked he liked sweeter wines. Finally, we came here with kids and this place is perfect for that in the summer. They have a big field with lawn games. Our seat was right in front of the window and we could watch them play outside. It was perfect. Play time for kids and wine and relaxation for the adults.

    Hermann J. Wiemer was one of the three wineries my husband and I visited when were in the Finger…read moreLakes for the Fourth of July last week. Hermann J. Wiemer has been around since 1979, but they started really experimenting with biodynamic wine production in 2014. That's how I came to find the winery when I was researching which to visit when I was planning our trip. I'm interested in organic, biodynamic, and natural wines, and Hermann J. Wiemer has become a pioneer in biodynamic wines for the Finger Lakes region. (When we spoke about Hermann J. Wiemer at other wineries we visited that weekend and with people we met in the Finger Lakes, it was clear how much respect people have for Hermann J. Wiemer. Everyone had such nice things to say about the winery, that they are pioneers and examples of great winemaking in the region and that they are incredibly supportive of and helpful to younger, newer wineries in the region.) We had a reservation, which I recommend. Even though Hermann J. Wiemer is large, it's popular and they were running out of space for people who visited without reservations. The space is incredible and varied for different experiences. There's indoor seating and outdoor seating. Much of the indoor space has large open windows so you can see the vines and the property from your seat during your tasting. It was incredibly comfortable inside the winery on this very hot day. The tasting is incredibly flexible. They offer 1.25, 2.5, and 5 oz pours of every wine on their menu. This includes more than 20 wines - many Rieslings, several Chardonnays, Gewürztraminer, Grüner Veltliner, Blaufränkisch, Cabernet Franc, blends, sparkling wines, dessert wines, and more. The staff member who was with us through our tasting was friendly and incredibly helpful. With so many wines, she helped direct us to wines we might have more of an interest in trying. We spent an hour or so at the winery (at one point watching a rain storm through the windows) and took a few bottles home with us. I enjoyed the wines and the experience and have enormous respect for the reputation that Hermann J. Wiemer has built in the Finger Lakes. If you're interested in biodynamic wines, Hermann J. Wiemer should be on your list to visit. It's also just a very beautiful, wonderful space and business to visit in the region. I'd very happily return.
