We got 2 flights and pork nachos. The nachos were a great deal and super yummy. The wines were enjoyable but nothing stood out as amazing. We ended up getting a bottle of Hunters Red, as I'm a suckered for Concord wine (it's adult grape juice after all! ) Would definitely return when passing through.

She wanted to set me up with a flight but we were pressed for time. Instead she allowed us to sample what we wanted. We almost bought a bottle of everything we tried. We left out with 6 bottles. We tried: Elk Country White Clarion River Red Wedding White Niagara Sangria White Cool as a Cucumber Honey Bee We purchased: Clarion River Red (Large) Wedding White (Large) Cool as a Cucumber x2 Honey Bee Jubileum This was such a nice place with full menu as well. I'm sadden that we weren't able to eat. Thank you Susan!

Im not usually a moscato drinker, but I had to get a bottle of the Trout Run wine since my family cabin is right on Trout Run. They have recently added alcoholic slushees and cider, which I have yet to try, but am excited to! Quaint gift shop area with cups, apparels, and other gifts. Check this place out!!

By far the ABSOLUTE BEST winery experience I have had in central Pennsylvania. It's a great way to…read morespend an afternoon! Cute little gift shop with not only wine tasting, but slushes and ciders as well. Hey guys, wine made of grapes!!!! Not just sugar and random fruits!!! To describe my wine tastes and to gauge whether my review really matters: I can drink/appreciate any grape wine (red, white, rose, blend), but I absolutely cannot stand a "wine" that is just sugar. There are definitely sweeter wines I enjoy, but if I cannot taste anything but sugar, it is just not a good drink. How it works at Benezette Wines: All of the wines on their wine list are represented by a sweetness scale 0-5 with 0 being most dry/least sweet. This makes it easy to pick something for any taste. The tasting of 6 wines comes in little medicine cups, and it's FREE! I don't know if you've been to Napa Valley or Fredericksburg lately, but tastings are going for $20 these days! Nice to see people are able to experience new wine without all the undue hype. The wine is made with actual grapes and the cabernet Franc tasted like a cabernet! I know that seems basic, but trust me it's a rarity here! Well done Benezette Wines!!! ( I am sorry PA, but the fruit wines I am tasting are over-sugared, lack any depth and simply make me sad) Benezette Wines also makes a really nice Chianti. I actually bought both the Cabernet Franc and the Chianti (Bella Rosa). Another wine that I found interesting was the Raspberry Cabernet. I can imagine it being a very nice, special wine to serve at a holiday dinner party. Just a hint of spice (maybe cinnamon) and splash of raspberry flavor, but still overall a cabernet style wine, a sweet table wine. I may have to come back for this one closer to the holidays. Benezette itself is a cute little town with elk wandering around most of the year. For whatever reason, the elk are just very happy in this town and in turn the town has embraced their presence! I think as a downside to this though it can get quite overwhelming with tons of cars stopping on the sides of roads, crowding the restaurants for a chance to be a part of this magical elk town for a few hours. We only saw 1 elk, but she was great! I am told it was too warm for the elk to be out (it was 85 degrees, sunny) and that elk are out more in the early am and at about 6-8 pm. We are planning on coming back out when its a little cooler and later in the day so that we can hear an elk bugel!

There's a list of all their wines but she picked out most of our pours while telling a story with the names. A lot of the wines have dirty names, so it was pretty funny. Connie also gave us the disclaimer upfront that they're a pretty laid back winery and to be prepared to have a great time. She was very personable and made the whole experience very enjoyable. Even though I'm usually more of a semi-dry wine drinker, I really enjoyed most of their sweet wines. They have a few pomegranate wines which were really good. They also carry some food, like cheese, flavored pretzels, and local products like honey and jams. I left with a few bottles and a smile. Even though it's a far drive from Buffalo, I hope to come back here again.

On the trail, look for the many park benches overlooking a central broad green space: Elk prefer it to the forest, where their ears and racks can be poked by branches. In September and October it's rut season, and the mature bucks bugle to assemble their harems, warning other males to stay away. The sound of the bugling is magic: It's the sound of the Ogliocene epoch, 25 million years ago. Deer with upper canines? Highly recommend this experience! In the afternoon, enjoy deer and turkeys wandering on the green. The center is free. For best experience, bring your own folding chairs, sandwiches, and binoculars.
