Much of the final day of the Wine Bloggers Conference was spent talking about blogging and writing, not about wine. It was a gorgeous day and with a fairly early end time there was time to visit some more vineyards. During the speed tasting during Day 1 my interest was piqued by two vineyards that were experimenting with or producing orange wines for sale so I decided to take the drive out to those two and talk about orange wine.
Keuka Springs
Our first stop was Keuka Spring, located on a hillside overlooking Keuka Lake. We were greeted by incredibly friendly staff and spent a considerable amount of time with owners Judy and Len Wiltberger. From the rose through an extensive tasting of whites and reds it was hard to decide what bottles to buy because each is crafted with such care and precision that they’re all good.
