Hermann J. Wiemer Vineyard
Founded in 1979, Hermann J. Wiemer Vineyard pioneered viticulture in New York's Finger Lakes, where it remains rooted on Seneca Lake with 90 acres of hand-harvested, hand-sorted fruit. Winemaker Fred Merwarth coaxes elegant wines through native fermentation, drawing from the estate's own HJW and Standing Stone vineyards to craft distinctive expressions including Kabinett-style releases.
