New York Wine and Table
2008Seasons & Episode
Lake Erie Grape Region is home to the oldest and largest Concord grape growing region in the world and the largest grape growing region in the United States outside of California. Currently there are 21 wineries with many more in the planning stages.
New York City is a concrete kingdom defined by the energy and execution of what's next, whether in the world of finance, art, music or winemaking. Winemaking? Long Island has been dubbed New York's "Bordeaux". In little over a quarter of a century Long Island has grown from one small vineyard to 3,000 acres of vines and over thirty wineries producing world-class wines.
The Finger Lakes grow more kinds of grapes than are found in California, and possibly any other grape growing region in the world.
Many winemakers and chefs are staking their hopes and their trellises on the east coast. Over the last three decades, 194 new wineries have opened in New York State. 112 of those wineries are located in the Finger Lakes region.
The newly created Thousand Islands - Seaway Wine Trail began its first season in 2007 and consists of three wineries, one grape nursery and 19 vineyards. So how can a climate that resembles the tundra in winter produce grapes suitable for wine making? The answer lies in the term "cold hardy grapes."
