Adirondack Winery FAQ's
When are you open?
Do I have to make an appointment?
- We do not take appointments. If you have a large group
(15+), we may be able to accomodate you at a typically slow
time, but our ability to do this is limited during the busy
summer season since our tasting bar is so small.
Are kids allowed in the winery?
- Well behaved children are welcome at the winery. Currently,
we don't have anything to entertain them while they wait for
you; however, we get children in all the time and they are
usually just fine. The tasting takes about 15+ minutes,
depending on how quickly you taste :) We do have chocolates
and cheese plates available (and usually free
lollipops)...which tends to satisfy the kids while you taste.
Do you make your wine on-site?
- Yes. We are a fully-licensed Winery. Our
wine-making facility is located at the back of our retail
store; where you will find wine-making equipment
commonly seen in commercial wineries; but on a much smaller
scale.
Do you have a vineyard?
- Adirondack Winery does not have a vineyard. We
manufacture our wines from high quality grape product sourced
primarily from California vineyards, which allows us the
ability to make 35+ different wine types.
- This practice allows us to provide our customers with a much
wider variety of wines than the usual vineyard, and means that
you won't be tasting only New York grape wines, even though you're
visiting a winery in New York state.
Do you charge for a Wine Tasting?
- Yes, one wine tasting session costs $5.00 -- you get to
taste several different wines and get a free souvenir glass to take
home with you. Dessert wine tastings and plates of cheese to
enjoy with your tasting are available at an additional nominal
charge.
Can I tour your wine-making facility?
- Our wine making facility is viewable through a window at our
tasting bar. However, at slow times, we may be able to
accomodate requests to take you into the wine making facility
and briefly explain how the process works....
Which area restaurants carry Adirondack Winery wine?
Do you sell wine accessories at your store?
- Yes. Adirondack Winery's store front features a wide
range of wine accessories and gifts; more than is typically
seen at a wine shop. Click this link to check out
just some of the items we offer.
- Please shop our store and pick up a wine-related item you
may need; pick up a gift for a loved one, or take home a
souvenir of Lake George.
- The BEST souvenir is to buy a bottle of our wine, as each
Adirondack Winery label features original photographs or
artworks of the Lake George region. After you've drank
the contents, make it into a candle or flame light with
accessories we have at the store.
Can you ship your wine to my state?
-

ID, LA, MO, NB, NV, NH, NM, NY, ND, OH, OR, VA, VT, D.C., and WV.

Does Adirondack Winery serve food?
- The only thing we serve with the wine tasting is small
plates of cheese for an additional fee. However, we do have a
great selection of specialty food items, gourmet cheese,
handmade chocolates, Wine Ice Cream, and more available for
purchase.
- Customers enjoy buying a bottle or two of wine, cheese, wine
ice cream, and
some food
items, and a wine picnic tote we have available in the store
to take it along on a picnic at your favorite Lake George spot.
Do you host wine tasting events?
- Yes. From time to time we will host a wine tasting
event that may include live entertainment, food pairings, and
an opportunity to socialize with fellow Adirondack area wine
lovers.
- To be notified of any future events, please join the
Adirondack Winery Inner Circle and we will notify
you by email.
- If you are interested in a private wine tasting event;
currently, we can only accomodate such requests in the
off-season at limited times.
