About Thorpe vineyard
Thorpe Vineyard: The Littlest Winery on the Great Lakes
Thorpe Vineyard is a family-owned and operated winery located in the heart of New York's Finger Lakes region. Established in 1988, Thorpe Vineyard has been producing award-winning wines for over three decades. The winery is situated on a picturesque hillside overlooking Cayuga Lake, one of the largest of the Finger Lakes.
At Thorpe Vineyard, we are committed to producing high-quality wines that reflect the unique terroir of our vineyards. Our grapes are grown using sustainable farming practices, and we hand-harvest each grape cluster to ensure only the best fruit makes it into our wines.
Our winemaking philosophy is simple: let nature do its work. We believe that great wine starts in the vineyard, and we strive to create wines that express the true character of our grapes. We use minimal intervention during fermentation and aging, allowing each wine to develop its own unique personality.
Our portfolio includes a range of varietals including Chardonnay, Riesling, Cabernet Franc, Pinot Noir, and Merlot. We also produce several blends that showcase the best qualities of multiple grape varieties.
One of our most popular wines is our Dry Riesling. This wine has won numerous awards over the years for its crisp acidity and bright citrus flavors. Our Cabernet Franc is another standout wine with notes of black cherry and spice.
In addition to producing exceptional wines, Thorpe Vineyard also offers visitors an unforgettable tasting experience. Our tasting room overlooks Cayuga Lake and provides stunning views year-round. Guests can enjoy a flight of our current releases while taking in the beauty of their surroundings.
We also offer private tastings by appointment for those looking for a more intimate experience or special occasion celebration such as weddings or corporate events.
At Thorpe Vineyard we pride ourselves on being "The Littlest Winery on the Great Lakes." We may be small, but we are mighty. Our wines have been recognized by top wine critics and competitions across the country, including Wine Enthusiast and the New York Wine & Food Classic.
