Coming Soon: The Library at Hermann J. Wiemer Vineyard

Keeping past vintages of wines is very important to how we make decisions and reflect on vintages. It allows us to check in on wines as they age and learn about the way certain varieties and vineyard sites develop. We also love to open them for vertical events and educational seminars and share them with our customers and so-called “wine-geeks”. With this dedicated wine library, we are looking forward to hosting private tastings, holding exclusive events, and having the space to appreciate the many vintages that have come before and represent the winery’s history.

Founded in 1979

Hermann J. Wiemer Vineyard is a pioneer of viticulture and winemaking in the Finger Lakes. Learn more about our history and the estate today.

Estate Overview

From the beginning...

Hermann J. Wiemer Vineyard has approached the health of our vineyards as the most vital component of winemaking. Learn more about our farming practices and vineyards.

Farming & Vineyards

Estate fruit is hand-harvested and hand-sorted.

Vineyard qualities are isolated, worked in small lots, and blended for balance and texture; fermentations rely on indigenous yeasts. Learn more about our winemaking practices.
