Hosmer Winery
Founded in 1985, Hosmer Winery sits on a nearly 70-acre estate on the western shore of Cayuga Lake in New York's Finger Lakes region. The Hosmer family has been tending vines here since 1972, and winemaker Julia Hoyle now crafts an impressive range of wines—from crisp Sauvignon Blancs and Rieslings to elegant Pinot Noirs and bold Cabernet Sauvignons. Family-owned and operated across generations, Hosmer welcomes you to discover their distinctive Cayuga Lake wines, including exclusive Limited Release selections.
