We did a tasting of 5 different wines for $7 - the Lazy Days Dry Rose, Untamed Red, End Post Red, Riesling Semi Sweet, and Blueberry. You can pay $10 to keep a souvenir glass! My favorites were the Untamed Red and the Blueberry. The Blueberry went really well with some Sparkle too - almost like a blueberry mimosa. We ended up bringing a bottle of the Untamed Red back with us!

Their tastings are generous coming from NYC at $6 for 5 tastings and their bottle average around $17ish for high quality wines of many varietals. Their sparkling wine is a favorite, also the traminette and the cab franc. You'll feel like family when you walk in, the owners/hosts are so sweet and kind and take great care of their patrons. Sit out back in the summer! Such a beautiful space.

We had a tour of the…read moremaple syrup room and the brewing area and learned quite a bit about how Critz Farms started and evolved over the years. The owner told us about the Agro-tourism industry that connects people to farms, ranches for the purpose of recreation, education and direct sales. Critz operates all year round with activities and events for all the seasons. Christmas trees, maple syrup, pumpkin picking, apples, kids areas, rides in a wagon and so much more. We had a very good time in the tap room doing a tasting of several of their hard ciders. Everyone we came in contact with was friendly and we even got to meet the beautiful dog Watson. I'm looking forward to coming back with the whole family.

Busy Saturday afternoon but line moved quickly, fast friendly service. Bought a 27 " wreath and several items for Christmas gifts. Next we stopped in the tasting room and were able to score a couple stools at the end of the bar after just a short wait. We both ordered flights of seasonal ciders that are Critz Farm made. Ciders, Brews, local cheeses and more available for purchase! Season ends December 14th!

The wines were good - a little on the sweet side but the Rose Shimmer and the La Crescent was nice - and paired well with the two delicious pizzas we got. My husband got the Cab Franc and enjoyed it as well. Both pizzas were a good size. We also had the Cab Franc Sorbet which was a delightful palette cleanser. The tasting room was bustling but not over crowded. All the staff were super nice and the chef even came out to check in on us. Really loved our experience and will return the next time we are in the area.

Plenty of seating outdoors as well with full table service. They do offer live music on select evenings as well. We were immediately greeted upon arrival and provided menus with wine tasting options or by the glass. They do offer a selection of local brews as well. We chose a table indoors, service was attentive. I had a four pour wine tasting, the dry Riesling was my favorite. Though listed as dry it is very smooth and just the right balance between dry and sweet without any aftertaste. I purchased a bottle of that for $23 and tasting $12. They have a pizza food truck onsite and local cheeses that can be purchased. The Garlic and Herb Yogurt Cheese from Buttercup cheese was a creamy delight! Definitely a great stop if you are in the area or taking a Drive around Oneida Lake!

Not your typical winery! =)…read more Wow, I want to say that we have been getting Montezuma wines for over 15 maybe 20 years! Currently I believe that they have three locations, & we have been to all three. If you want to taste test good wine, that runs the whole spectrum, then stop off at Montezuma. If you are looking for the typical French style wine, then this may not be for you. But if you have an open mind & want to try new flavours, then give them a go. This would be their third & newest location. Which we have only been to a handful of times.

The store had lots of their local items to purchase. I picked up a pumpkin mix, sweet vadalia onion dressing. My husband and I got wine slushies (strawberry bliss & apple raspberry both delicious). We went outside and grab lunch ( Ray's brother BBQ didn't open until 4p). My husband got Jamaica jerk chicken sandwich and I got the hot pot roast with horseradish sauce. We made it a meal and upgraded to mac n cheese, drink and slice pie of choice( apple or strawberry rhubarb). The food was surprisingly good, my husband enjoyed his sandwich and my pot roast was flavorful before I put the horseradish on it. The Mac n cheese was good, made with their Mill-Aged, Extra-Sharp NYS Cheddar. Overall it was a decent find, not too much in the area. The store is worth it to stop in.
