Kemmeter Wines

“Gentleness is the word that best describes the wines here! It was such a special tasting experience. The owner was incredibly kind, and I really loved hearing his story. You can truly taste how much care and heart has gone into every bottle. P.S. The dumpling shop run by his wife is also unbelievably delicious! Will definitely be back whenever I’m in the Finger Lakes area!”

“The absolute best lunch I can ever remember!! The salad dressing was so delish and dumplings spiced so right-spicy dipping sauce was out of this world. Cannot wait to go back again-FLX best kept secret🤍”

“A wine tasting experience above most others, unique and definitely special! Vineyards are meticulous and it shows in the final product!”

“Delicious dumplings from Sans Dumplings, it is a must try when you get to the vineyard! Did the wine tasting with the winemaker Johannes, it was a truly amazing experience for tasting lots of wonderful wine, and have a chance to understand the vineyards a lot better based on their soil type, sun exposure, and canopy management. Thank you so much for the delicious dumplings and incredible wines, lmelda & Johannes!”

“If you only have time to visit a few vineyards in FLX, make sure you make a reservation at Kemmeter Wines. Great wine starts with great grapes and the expression of the grape varietal, the climate in the year of harvest, terroir, and the passion of the winemaker. It is a true art form. Owner Johannes shows all of the above in the wines we sampled. I learned that different soil types vary in heat retention properties, hence giving the grapes a different quality in wine composition. These qualities can be depicted in the tasting: three Rieslings, all 2020 vintage having varying acidity/sweetness. Being a lover of Pinot, Johannes' passion for winemaking can be seen in the Pinot Noir Trio: a blend of three vintages (26% 2017, 28% 2019 and 46% 2020). This wine is elegant and showcases the delicate nature of the Pinot Noir grape perfectly. Visiting Kemmeter Wines was definitely a highlight of our trip!”
