    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!

    I'm super late adding this review but it's so memorable I can still so clearly recall our wine…read moretasting experience at Hermann J. Wiemer Vineyard. Well, aside from our wine guide's name, (I'M SO SORRY) who was EXCELLENT and made what would have been a lost group of women wanting to get lit to an educational experience but ALSO a great time. He curated a list of several white wines in carafes for us to learn and practice different tasting notes. I have never had a wine tasting like this and have never had one like this again, yet. Hopefully that will change during my Napa trip this month! The outdoor seating area is beautiful and green without getting too noisy, and perfect for big groups. There's also a large unending field of grapes - which we definitely posed for an ungodly amount of photos in front of. Hermann J. Wiemer is definitely a wine institution well deserving of all the accolades that I will be visiting again next time I'm in upstate New York!

    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.
