The Finger Lakes region is such a beautiful place. The area is well-known for its vineyards, but there’s a great collection of craft breweries in the region as well. One spot that combines both delectable wine and tasty beers is Wagner Valley Brewing Company and Wagner Vineyards Estate Winery. This two-in-one spot has been owned by the same family for generations. The great lake views can’t be beat: add in the wines, beers, and seasonal cafe, and you’ve got a great day trip on your hands!
Wagner Vineyards opened up in 1979 and has remained in the same family for its entire existence. The farm grows more than 250 acres of grapes and sells more than 50,000 cases of wine a year.

The fun doesn’t stop with the wine, though. Wagner Valley Brewing Company was one of the very first craft breweries to open in the Finger Lakes.

This is such a fun and educational place. Even if you aren’t a huge fan of alcohol, it’s interesting to hear about the wine and beer-making process.
