What a wonderful and HOT Thursday evening at the vineyard for their summer Patio night. Great music, food and fun was had by all. I even saved room for some cookie dough ice cream for dessert to cool me off! read more

We went here for a work event. The space was very big and lots of room to host just about any space. The view over the vineyard was amazing at sundown. Wine has always been, okay. Nothing to write home about. Food was great. I was surprised how good the food actually was. I had the pan seared chicken breast with mushroom and shallot sauce. It was a little spicy, which I enjoyed. My husband had the pan seared sea bass finished with a mango jalapeño chutney. He said his was pretty good, but felt it could have been cooked a little more. For food, the only complaint I would have is that when they set out the coffee they only Provided flavored creamer. No milk, no regular cream. I had to ask for cream directly and they did actually bring some out without any issues. read more

My second visit was to Casa Larga Vineyards, a family run vineyard, and a shop for local wines. A pleasant event venue for the community. The first time for a summer gathering with friends, sipping wine and listening to music. We enjoyed ourselves and had a great time. The wines were smooth and enjoyable. They have ice wine too. Very refreshing in the heat of summer. They also had beers to drink. The problem is the food. The only food truck at the festival ran out of food midway. The foods in house were very limited to a charcuterie platter and pizza. More than 1 hr to get the food. We were so hungry we devoured everything in minutes once it was brought to us by the children. I guess the children were the buffer so people will not complain. I just went for a craft festival, and food delivery took at least 45 minutes, and the crowd was not that big. So obviously, they are not equipped to feed crowds. This time I drank Celebration prosecco-style wine, very light with a slight bubble. read more

We had a large (140p) banquet here. David, the weekend manager, was phenomenal. Any issues we had - coffee etc, he went out of his way to make sure it was rectified. Great large room - perfect for our needs. Food is prepared offsite so changing numbers can be an issue but David and the staff were excellent. read more

I came here for Ice Wine tour!! It isn't as big as they usually have it, but we still enjoyed ourselves. Truthfully it is quite enjoyable with less people to navigate around, we even got to tour the cellar and how they make the wine. Love the whole experience and atmosphere. I do not love the weather though! Lol read more

My mom and I came to Casa Larga for a wine flight after a bridal shower, and it was beautiful! Their staff was very kind and helped us choose what we were looking for, and the service was very fast. We sat in the tasting room and enjoyed some wine and a cheese board and had a lot of fun. Their wine is pretty good, but I was not overly impressed with the cheese board. For the price of the experience, I would have expected a little bit more. This all being said, we will definitely be back again if we are back in the area in the future! read more

We just stopped for a quick wine tasting and picked up a few bottles today, Sunday at noon. Staff was very friendly engaging and had a sense of humor.

While I think it is really cool that this brewery is right in Fairport, I don't think their wine is anything special. I did their Riesling tasting, which was three different kinds, and while it was fine, I've definitely had better. I would go here again, but it's definitely not my favorite winery. read more

I can't say enough about how amazing Casa Larga is. They were the venue for my bridal shower and (rescheduled) wedding reception. The team was amazing to work with (Belinda and Tammy were our main points of contact), especially given all of the changes in mandates surrounding COVID. I received so many compliments from our guests on the beauty of the venue and everything ran very smoothly. I would definitely recommend this venue to anyone looking for a wedding venue or an event space for their next function. read more

So this is our 2nd visit here and on this day, they actually had a bridal show in one of their rooms. But they place is very beautiful and they had an area for tasting wine as well as some brews. We actually chose to taste wine paired with Chocolate. That was an awesome experience. They have a wide variety to choose from and they all were very good. So good that we bought 2 bottles. This place is great and so are the employees. They are very knowledgeable and helpful! We will be back when we run out. read more

disgusting wines, poor excuse for food, $15 for a mini pizza that was obviously microwaved, totally dried out, tasted like the cardboard it was served on. Totally inedibl. $13 for a bottle of wine which is reasonable but you can't buy a bottle to drink on the premises, you have to buy the same wine for $12 a glass. talk about a total rip off. excuse is local bylaws but none of the other 200 plus wineries in the finger lakes have this stupid rule. All the rave reviews are for weddings which are catered by an independent firm, not by the winery I have to say this is the absolute worst wine in the finger lakes and the food they provide is totally inedible. Avoid this place! read more

Has the absolute tastiest lilac wine. Came to do a tasting with some out-of-towners, and I was impressed with the friendliness of the service and sitting area. We did our flights out on the patio, which had metal lawn furniture and umbrellas, and then got a glass each (they do not sell you a bottle to consume onsite) of the lilac wine and split a charcuterie board (which was plenty for 4 people) in the upstairs sitting area. The deck was reserved for a wedding, but the views were lovely, so I imagine sitting out there would be nice. read more

We visited on a weekend (Summer) to do the tour and tastings. At the time it was just something to do. Around the time we went, their site stated that tours on Saturday were only at 12pm and 4pm, so we got there early enough for the 12pm start and we didn't sign up online - the option is available. You get a tour of the grounds and learned some from how the wines came to be and the story behind the family that owns it - it was interesting. We also went inside (downstairs) and found out why certain wines are in certain barrels. It was a very nice wine history lesson on this venue. After the tour, we got to taste some of the wines and they were very good. The ones I enjoyed the most were Pallido (a Medium Dry Wine), Lilac Hill, White Sangria and then mixed with the Red Sangria (Sweet Wines) and the Fiori-8 (Ice Wine). The latter one, I wanted to buy a bottle, but held off because of the price and I felt the wine would have been finished by me before I left the building - it was that good. The employees were very helpful, especially Dan who went above and beyond to make our visit pleasant as I enjoyed my visit there. read more

I've been to casa larga several times! I love their summer concerts, people dance and the atmosphere is really fun! Their wine slushies are a little too sweet for me but they have plenty other wine to enjoy! read more

I stopped today at my Casa Larga for something other than wine! They carry Cindy's grape pies this time of the year and I had to get one. I also bought the pineapple lime slushie and it was very good. I think I prefer their wine plain myself because the icy slushie was too cold on the teeth! Luckily I always have a bottle of their wine on hand for company. They are an excellent smaller winery. 13-14 years ago my daughter has her wedding f reception there and the venue is gorgeous! Check them out! I'm adding a few pictures of their gifts and other local products they sell' read more

Over the years I have been here for different events (Ice Wine Fest, Yelp elite event, etc) and wine tastings. Most recently friends had extra tickets to the CLV summer happy hour event out on the winery's front lawn. It was a beautiful evening and with the ticket you got one drink - I chose one of their blush wines - it was OK. That has always been my opinion of their wines - just OK. The vibe of this event was fun given the music and the sun setting over the vineyards. It is nice to have a vineyard right in Rochester's backyard especially when you don't want to trek down to the Finger Lakes. read more

This is a wonderful wedding venue. It's beautiful. Service was excellent. The flow of traffic from the receiving line to the bar area for the cocktail hour to the dining room went smoothly. The venue is lovely. We liked the view of the vineyards from the patio. The food was great, not just for a wedding but in general. My husband's filet mignon was juicy and perfectly cooked. My salmon was also perfectly cooked, even though the sauce was a little bland. Their wines were good, if not my favorites. If you're planning a wedding, I'd definitely consider this venue. If you're attending a wedding here, you are in for a treat. read more

Are we on our 3rd or 4th case of wine pickups since quarantine began? Who knows. What we do know is how much we love Casa Larga wine and how close it is to home. It took no arm twisting to convince me to be a lifetime member, with free tastings and discounts. We can't get enough of the Lilac Hill, and I'd count the Cab Merlot among the best red options in the region. Around the 4th, we also really enjoy the red sangria with a little sprite and fresh fruit. read more

Well.....beautiful property, pretty good wine. But I work super hard for my money and don't part with it without good reason and confidence that I will have a superior product or experience. Therefore I was somewhat disappointed when we took our daughter for a birthday outing of wine tasting. We tried to make reservations and were informed that they wouldn't be needed for just the three of us. However, when we arrived there was just one person at the counter assisting other guests. The poor woman did everything; took orders, went to the kitchen to prepare food, poured wine, while gradually the line around us grew longer and longer. We were patient and made the most of our time waiting to order and then FOR our order by going on a self tour of the premises, exploring the merchandise in the gift area, and then asking if we could go sit on the deck. We were not able to do to an "event" that was to be held, however there was no one there. We ended up carrying our "flights" to the outdoor patio where our descriptions of wine promptly blew away and several of the plastic cups of wine blew over. My terrific husband who remained committed to the experience chased the paperwork, stec his wine and STILL braved the disorder and edited in line to make a purchase. Our hostess also did apologize profusely, and I KNOW this has been a terrible time for the hospitality industry, so I'll continue to practice my patience and just hope they are able to recover with a few hires to assist the weekenders who are dying to get out and back to normal! read more

Casa Larga Vineyards - It's pretty yummy. - Wineries Near Me - Fairport, New York

Apparently wine tasting is a weekly fun thing to do here in Rochester. On my short weekend visit, My friend decided it had to be on my must try list. We chose this winery for their famous lilac wine. Upon arrival we were given a menu for us to mark on. For $2, each of us was allowed to taste 5 wines on their menu (including 1 ice wine!). I have the sweetest tooth so checking off the sweetest wines they have available was an easy decision. We were given a brief history and summary of our chosen wine before each tasting. Although I'm more of a white wine person, my personal fav ended up being the red sparkle! It tasted so much like strawberry soda yum. The ice wine with honey and apricot was simply amazing! We were given the option of choosing 3 of our 5 tasting entirely from the ice wine menu for an extra $5. But since I didn't know what ice wine was until this visit, I just went with their regular menu. With my sweet tooth, I would def opt for that option on my next visit. For an additional $5, u can also choose your wine tasting to go with either chocolate or cheese. The only downside is that it's a pre-set tasting so u won't get to choose the wines. Chocolate and wine? Sounds like a perfect date! Too bad we were only allowed one tasting on each visit or we would have gone in a second round with the chocolate tasting. We ended up each leaving with a bottle of or favorite wine. Can't believe My first wine tasting experience was here in Rochester and surprisingly fun! Now going to look for more wineries back in the city! read more

This review is specifically for their recent Purple Foot Festival (PFF), which was SO MUCH FUN! None of us had ever been to the vineyard, and, BOY, after the PFF that will change! It is surprisingly close to Rochester! With stunning views!!! And very tasty wines! The PFF was a ton of fun! With your entry-fee, there are wine tastings, sangria tastings, hay rides through the vineyards, music, grape stomping, pie eating contests (hilarious!), a vendor-shopping area, and much more. A wonderful way to spend a Sunday afternoon with friends! We'll be back to enjoy the vineyards -- bet they're pretty stunning in the Autumn with foliage! read more

Stopped in near the very end of the day as part of the "Christmas Around the World" Lake Ontario Wine Tour/event. It was our last stop and things were winding down from that but winding up for them for a big holiday party they were hosting. The staff who helped us was great-we appreciated that she was honest with us and had a great sense of humor. They tucked us away upstairs so we could relax and enjoy without feeling rushed to move on. Great way to unwind after a long day on the trail. I'm sure we'll be back! For a festival or event-the string quartet I play in performs here often! read more

I've been here before many years ago. They have really changed the place up and it looked great before, but not it looks even better. It was a little chaotic at first when our wine tasting began, because the lady taking care of us was finding the wine, and then this other man poured some wine in my glass and I didn't know what it was and it just got weird. Also, for some reason my tasting got a little off because she didn't look at my sheet beforehand like the other two people I was with, and noticed I had two drier wines on my list, and she had already poured the sweeter tasting wines. I purchased two wines the dry rose and the Tramonto. Those were my favorite. The Dry Rose will be perfect for sipping on the porch, at night, in the summer. The Tramonto will be great with beef. read more

Was amazing! Came on a sunny day during the fall. Was able to site outside and the views are beautiful. You also can sit inside as an option. Had two flights. One was of sweet wines including their ice wine, which was so good! You can also make your own flight with variation of different wines. The staff were nice. read more

They didn't allow dogs anywhere on the property even outside, which is kind of dumb. Can definitely understand no dogs inside the building but none outside was a first. Would recommend management adjusts to the times ! read more

Casa Larga is a great place to stop by when the weather is nice. I prefer to venture over when in the spring or fall. The best deal is to get tastings with your tour. It doesn't take much time. The white wines are better than the reds here. I am typically a dry wine person, but I do enjoy a glass of their seasonal Lilac Hill to kick of the spring going into summer. Most of their other wines I do not think are particularly memorable. They often have farmer's markets and little events sprinkled during the summer. This is a great wedding venue with a big open ballroom as well. I know someone who got married here and enjoyed the service the venue provided. If you have nothing to do, stop by and grab a glass to enjoy on their wrap around porch. read more

I came here with my friends during our cider/wine tour. This was our second to last stop so we were feeling fine when we got here. There was a wedding and us silly girls loved it and all got super excited. The bridal party was all in the tasting area and it was so fun. We all got a bunch of samples and truly enjoyed everything we tried. The woman who was serving us was great. She had so much personality and it was truly fun because of her. The tasting room was also a shop so you can get all sorts of stuff needed for your parties, including many bottles of wine. A great place to come for some wine! read more

I will admit, I was hesitant to try Casa Larga based on some of these bad reviews but I am glad I gave it a shot as we had a wonderful time. Charlie took us through our tasting which was buy one get one free at the time! He was very knowledgeable about all of the wines which was impressive given the large list. All that we tried were very nice. The tasting and the wine were reasonably priced and the service was exceptional. Ignore the haters. read more

We had a wonderful experience wine tasting at Casa Larga. Our host Lou was very knowledgable about all of the wines she was pouring. The selection of wine to taste is exceptional. They have many award winning wines including their incredible ice wine. They even have sweet ice slushees if you are feeling that. The dry rose is a must try along with the gewürztraminer. Every wine has smooth finish. There is a 40$ life time membership which gets you free tastings every time along with 10% off your wine every visit. Its a great deal for a place like this. Must visit if in Rochester and I know we will definitely be continually going back. read more

Casa Larga was the perfect location for our wedding. First of all, it is really great in terms of convenience because you get bar service and catering directly included at a very reasonable price so you don't have to worry about searching for those services separately. It's also a great location, not too far out from Rochester. I know I made the right decisions because we received so many compliments on the venue, including the beautiful indoor space, the gorgeous vineyard views, and how EXCELLENT the food was! Seriously though, I am ALWAYS disappointed with the food when I attend a wedding so my expectations were low... Our food was PHENOMENAL, in fact I was 100% convinced my father who flew in from France would not be one bit impressed and guess what... he was VERY happy with his beautiful filet. I had the sea bass and it was DELICIOUS. Guests were SO happy, someone even said they wanted to change their current caterer they have booked for their upcoming wedding because they wanted the Casa Larga food! The catering manager Mary Kay was so accommodating and really went above and beyond for us, I was so grateful. The space is absolutely gorgeous which was really helpful for me because I am not good with decorations so I was able to do minimal work here... (plus I was planning this from Texas as we do not live in Rochester anymore so decorations were complicated for me), the space is perfectly fine on its own. The staff, event manager and our amazing coordinator David were so incredibly accommodating and helpful... I've heard horror stories about day of coordinators who don't end up helping a lot, this was NOT the case for us, we felt supported and understood months before the event, and I had no stress at all about the venue. The day of, we felt like ROYALTY; even though we had a lot going on, the staff and coordinator ALWAYS made sure we had everything we needed. I think this venue gets a lot of business, yet they made us feel so special, we did not feel like we were just another wedding for them, we never felt pressured into anything they really let us take the reigns, they were incredibly dedicated, communication was ALWAYS great. Our social medias were FLOODED with pictures of guests who had taken pictures outside in front of the vines at sun set. Our guests had a wonderful time and that was so important to us. Cannot recommend this beautiful venue enough! read more

Casa Larga is my favorite winery. Absolutely the best! The Purple Foot Festival that they have every year in September around my birthday is incredibly fun. Stomping grapes, tasting, the food trucks, the food, the vendors! It is definitely an unappreciated festival in the Rochester area. As far as the wines go, if you are a fan of the dry reds, my absolutely go-to wine. I love their Tramanto. Their tastings are great and the people are knowledgeable. The one draw-back is that if you're a big fan of sweet wines, their selection is a little scant. I love the dry aspects that they are able to pull out from their wines. Also, their ice wine is to DIE for. read more

If you have been dreaming of your wedding for many years like I was, there is no better place to get married than at Casa Larga. Belinda Countryman, is the wedding planning coordinator, so we began our planning process with her. Then, about 2 months before our wedding, we were assigned our day of wedding planner, David Suatoni. He was incredible. He went way above and beyond with immense patience, kindness, and creativity, during the difficult time we are all living in: covid. The wedding ceremony, dinner, and reception, all ran smooth as silk. My dreams all came true at the beautiful Casa Larga! read more

Came here recently for a wedding. It was very beautiful we were in the large room with tons of windows and the sunset was gorgeous.

We went there for a tasting as we are wine club members. Found out because of covid, the tastings come in flights and only offered one dollar off for members. This is vs. the agreement when we signed up for lifetime free tastings. The comes across as a convenient way to back out of the original agreement. Sounds like we buzz by this place on the way to Seneca Lake. read more

First time here couple weeks ago for a winter holiday party. The venue is really pretty. The ballroom is a good size with windows all around. Would be perfect for wedding and big events. There is a bar adjacent to the ballroom in a separatae area but is connected through an open corridor. The wine shop is in the same building but on the other side. I tried four out of the five Casa Larga wines that they served at the event. They were all quite good, especially the reisling. If you prefer sweet wines, their chardonney is also on the relative sweet side from the typical chardonney. The reisling is just the right amount of sweetness. The prices on these wines are competitive too. I am definitely going to get a few bottles to stock up. read more
