Frontenac Point Vineyard
|
|
Located on the west shore of Cayuga Lake on Route 89, just 12 miles north of Ithaca, the finest wine grape varieties are grown on slopes of low elevation. They are protected by a unique microclimate that is the result of the southernmost influence of Lake Ontario and the deep waters of Cayuga Lake. Because of the resulting long growing season, the grapes ripen perfectly to produce world-class wines for the consumer.
