Although I grew up on Long Island, NY, where wineries are plentiful, my first wine tasting was done while on a two week lake vacation in the Adirondack/Lake George region of upstate New York. What a pleasant and fabulous experience it was at the Ledge Rock Hill Winery in Corinth, NY! This spot is a gem! In addition to its charm and attractiveness, it is especially enjoyable because of the intimate setting, and the friendliness and knowledge of its owners. For just $5 one can taste 6 of their wines. Also included in the price, are wonderful wine crackers that one can munch on either to satisfy hunger, or for their intended purpose, cleansing the palate between tastings. I have had such wine crackers/nuggets before, but these are particularly tasty. Also available for purchase are small Italian meat and cheese platters or Chocolate truffle platters. We enjoyed the Italian Platter, and bought a box of truffles and wine to enjoy at home. The wine is very good, particularly a red Marquette. I should have paid more attention to the specific names of all the different wines, but I did not. Every wine I tried, or those tried by my friends, was wonderful. I heard the Chardonnay was very good, as was the Cayuga, another white wine. One thing I must say is that the tasting portions are scant. According to my friends, this is the smallest amount of wine they've been given during
a tasting anywhere, so perhaps knocking off a half star for that, may be appropriate. I decided on the red Marquette for purchase and for a full glass at the conclusion of the tasting. I loved it, as did my hubby. It was our personal favorite and I believe it is their best seller. I highly recommend this charming winery as a way to spend a leisurely afternoon. It is very modern, yet quite rustic. You will love it!!
When one is at a winery in a remote area of anywhere, bathroom facilities are always a concern. Don't worry, Ledge Rock Hill has you covered. The most charming "Out house" is located just outside the main building (it is really a full bathroom with all the modern conveniences one is accustomed to finding in a public restroom) disguised as a privy.) And, by the way, it is scrupulously clean too!
