Living Roots Rochester · Neighborhood of the Arts
Living Roots Wine & Co. on University Avenue is Rochester's urban winery, inside the city rather than out on a Finger Lakes trail, and CITY Magazine covers it as such. Wine is fermented and finished on site and poured in the University Avenue tasting room. Order a tasting flight to compare the house bottlings, all of them made in the building.
Casa Larga Vineyards · Fairport
Casa Larga Vineyards sits on Turk Hill Road in Fairport, a family-owned winery founded in 1974 and run by the same family for more than fifty years, as the Rochester Business Journal noted in a 2024 feature on family businesses. Food, Wine & Travel Magazine covered its roughly forty acres of vines, an output of about eight thousand cases a year, and its award-winning Vidal ice wine. Order a tasting flight, and try the ice wine the estate is known for.
O-Neh-Da and Eagle Crest Vineyards · Conesus
O-Neh-Da and Eagle Crest Vineyards sits in the state forest above Hemlock Lake in Conesus, south of the city, and 585 Magazine notes it has produced sacramental wines since 1872. Today the estate also makes about a dozen varieties for the public. It is one of the oldest continuously operating wineries in the United States. Order a tasting of the table wines, or pick up a bottle of the historic sacramental wine.
