Lake Erie Wine Country
All wines start with grapes and all grapes start with “terroir” or
the dirt and climate in which the grapes are grown. Lake Erie
Wine Country, formerly the Chautauqua-Lake Erie Wine Trail,
is located in the largest grape growing region east of the Rockies,
now known as America’s Grape
Country.
It extends roughly
50 miles from Silver Creek,
NY (Chautauqua County) to
Harborcreek, Pennsylvania (Erie
County), and is home to over 24
commercial and estate wineries.
The Creation of Terroir – Geological History
During the Ice Age, glaciers descended from the north gouging
out great trenches and bringing with them tremendous quantities
of Canadian soil, rocks and boulders. As temperatures began to
warm, these glaciers receded, filling the trenches with glacial melt
to form the Great Lakes and leaving in their wake ridges of soil
and gravel along the Lake Erie shore. These glacial ridges are the
basis for ideal growing conditions for wine grapes and fruit trees.
The well-drained gravel-loam soils and the moderating effect of
the lake on spring and fall temperatures combine to create the
perfect growing environment or “terroir” for healthy vineyards
and premium wines and one that is not unlike that found in parts
of Germany.
Viticultural History
For over one hundred years, the area has been home to a vigorous
grape and juice industry supplied by 30,000 acres of vineyards.
The majority of these vineyards are labruscan grapes, such as
Concord and Niagara. Almost five decades ago, Frederick Johnson
(Johnson Estate est. 1961) and Doug Moorehead (Presque Isle est.
1968) were pioneers in planting French-American hybrid and
vinifera grapes in the area. Passage of the Pennsylvania Limited
Winery Act (1968) and the New York Farm Winery Act (1976)
sparked the creation of a chateau or “estate” industry and in the
last ten years, the planting of premium wine grapes has accelerated,
paralleling the growth in the number of wineries.
The Wines
Today, the twenty-three wineries in Lake Erie Wine Country
produce an abundant and diverse list of wines that fall into four
categories:
Fruity, Native Labruscas: Concord, Ives, Niagara, Delaware
French-American Wines: Seyval, Vidal (popular for ice wines),
Chancellor, Chambourcin, Marechal Foch
European Vinifera Wines: Riesling, Chardonnay, Merlot,
Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon
Dessert and Specialty Wines: Sweet late harvest and ice wines,
fortified wines (Brandy, Port, Sherry), fruit and sparkling wines
Guidelines for Groups (of 8 or more) Visiting Wineries:
Reservations: Call any winery you plan to visit well in advance.
While 2 weeks notice is preferable, any notice is better than none.
This is especially important for larger groups. Unannounced group
arrivals cause considerable strain on tasting room operations,
which may adversely impact customers’ experiences, particularly
during peak periods and seasons.
Keep in Touch: Have a phone number for each winery you plan
to visit. Know each tasting room’s hours and applicable tasting fees
in advance. Please call the wineries to warn them if you are NOT
on schedule – expect that there may be some adjustments required
if your group is late.
Be Thoughtful When Scheduling: Schedule tours during
weekdays or weekend mornings. Some wineries have small tasting
rooms with limited staff. Advance notice enables wineries to plan
ahead and arrange for extra staff.
Remember to Purchase Wines You Enjoy: Many of the wines
you’ll taste are only available in the tasting rooms, so it is a good
idea to purchase wines you want to take home.

Woodbury Vineyards
Parking: Park in designated areas (if available) to avoid blocking
the entrance or parking lot.
Be Considerate: It is illegal for customers to bring outside
alcohol onto winery premises. It is also illegal for wineries to
serve customers who are intoxicated or not of legal drinking age.
Drivers should be proactive in handling these behaviors and not
drop off intoxicated individuals.
Be Proactive: Inform parties (bachelor, bachelorette, etc.) and
other clients in advance that they need to conduct themselves in
an appropriate manner at wineries.
Take Care: Many wineries are on busy roads that are traveled
at relatively high speeds. It is VERY DANGEROUS and a
SERIOUS LIABILITY RISK for tour clients to walk along these
roads to/from a tasting room.
Please: Do NOT provide alcohol in buses or limousines en route
to wineries.
AND Lastly: Please do not bring intoxicated or unruly clients to
wineries. Drunkenness should not be facilitated by providing or
allowing consumption of alcohol en route to wineries. Bringing
intoxicated or unruly clients to wineries will result in incidents
and/or conflicts that will only serve to harm both wineries’ and
tour operators’ businesses.
Thank you for helping to keep our customers safe and their
experiences in Lake Erie Wine Country fun.
