Lakewood
Lakewood produces wines from the Finger Lakes, a region defined by glacial lakes and cool-climate conditions that favor aromatic white varieties and delicate reds. The winery's portfolio centers on Riesling, Catawba, and Pinot Gris—grapes well-suited to the region's terroir. The Full Monty Riesling and Catawba Rosé have been assessed by Wine Enthusiast, Decanter, and Wine Advocate. Riesling thrives in the Finger Lakes' cool growing season, developing the mineral precision and fruit balance the region is known for. Catawba, a hybrid variety with deep roots in eastern American viticulture, brings a distinctive character to rosé production. Pinot Gris rounds out the lineup with the crisp, food-friendly profile typical of the variety. These wines reflect the particular conditions of New York's premier cool-climate zone.
