Frontenac Point Vineyard & Estate Winery — Attraction in Town of Covert

My wife and I were looking for a particular type of wine for our upcoming vacation and couldn’t find it locally and sent an email to Frontenac Point Vineyard to enquire about where to purchase wine. With in 24 hours, Carol, one of the owners reached out and informed me the wine we wanted is only sold at the winery. Carol offered to bring the wine to the Binghamton area if we wished. We decided to take a ride instead. We informed Carol we would take a drive. Carol’s response was “Please ask for me when you arrive, I’d like to meet you.” Sure enough about 10 minutes after our arrival Carol came to our table. We thought it would just be a friendly introduction, enjoy your time here and thanks for coming. Carol asked if she could pull up a chair and we began to chat. Carol took the time to educate us on the operation of the winery, answered our questions, not only about the winery, but interesting facts of the area. Carol made us feel very welcome and by the end of our visit we felt like family. If you’re looking for a wonderful day trip, with EXCELLENT wine, beautiful scenery, wonderful staff and owners who treat you like family then...

I worked here many years ago and went back there when I was in Ithaca recently because I love the wines and personally know that the owners care about the wine they make from only the grapes they grow in their vineyard. And they do it all sustainably - from the ground, to the wines, to the packaging. Most of the wines are dry with a few semi-dry. Their Brut Methode Champenoise is made in the traditional way - individually in each bottle. The view from the winery deck of the vineyard and Cayuga Lake is panoramic and relaxing. You can bring your own food, buy a glass of wine or water, and picnic on their deck. Also available are charcuterie meats, local cheeses, pita crackers and gluten free crackers. The grounds and vineyard are open for you to wander in. This winery is dog friendly outside and on the deck. If you want a tour, ask - if an owner is available they will take you on an informal tour of the vineyard and/or winery depending on what you want to see. I highly recommend...
