We're hosting French Picnics in the Estate Gardens again this spring! For the next two weekends, enjoy a picnic in the farmhouse gardens where the spring irises have begun to bloom. Like vintages of wine which can vary from year to year, the farmhouse gardens have changed over time. The Woodland Garden is full of sweet woodruff (smells like May Wine!) and this year there are baby Russian Sage plants in the Herb Garden. But come and see for yourself! And while we might like to think that we are in France, we want you to appreciate this special place in WNY!

Visit us this weekend on May 27th, 28th or 29th or next weekend, June 3rd or 4th, and enjoy the beautiful weather on the Estate.

The Tasting Room is where you shop for your picnic treats to pair with your favorite wines - chilled cheeses (Yancey's Fancy and Goot Essa), charcuterie, crackers, dried fruit and nuts, and Estate-made quince paste to start. If all goes well, we'll also have our favorite Ace baguettes, the brand of bread which is most like authentic French baguettes. You are welcome to take them home - or to enjoy them in the gardens.

Bon Printemps!
Jennifer & Fred Johnson

PS I would be remiss not to applaud Margarita and Florentina for their hard work in the gardens - they did an amazing job on the "spring cleanup".
Thank you to these "angelitas del jardin"!

VINEYARD WALKS AT THE ESTATE
 

Self-Guided Walks are offered both Saturday and Sunday mornings and are now on our Event Calendar. Reserve here - and yes, dogs and children are welcome. You may also purchase walks when you happen to be at the winery and Mother Nature calls to you for a vineyard walk!
