Do you have your tickets for the Niagara Wine Trail USA‘s annual Harvest Fest weekend yet?

Advance tickets are still available for just $22 / person and includes a tasting of 3 wines with a sample of a harvest themed dish at your choice of 10 participating wineries- that’s 30 wine samples and 10 food pairings!
PLUS receive a commemorative wine glass from your starting winery!

The best things in life are always worth the wait… After much anticipation, Long Cliff Winery’s signature semi-dry red blend, Blauer Himmel, is back again!

With notes of cherry, clove and anise, after just one sip you’ll know why it’s name means “Blue Heaven.”

But as you may remember, Blauer Himmel is extra special to the Long Cliff family for more than just its unique taste.  It is a tribute to our sweet “Grandma Judy” who stood beside us as the vineyard was planted & supported Don’s dream of opening his own winery.  Grandpa designed this wine especially for her. He purposely set out to craft a pizza/pasta wine made primarily from the “blue grape,” (Blaufrankisch) because it was her favorite color, and hid her name in grape vines across the top of our classic label design.  Look closely and you’ll even spy a halo and angel wings in each of the four corners.

Our first wine to ever sell out (not once but twice!), having it return to the shelf just in time for our lucky 7th Anniversary feels like the perfect reminder that we’ve always got a guardian angel watching over this little #farmfamily.

Raise a glass to our 2018 growing season and celebrate Autumn’s bounty with us at our 2nd Annual Nouveau Night! Our most talked about event of 2017 is back again – Join us Thursday, November 15th for the official bottling & release of the first wine from this year’s Harvest.

Our Winemaker’s Reception begins at 5:00pm.  Wine tasting & light hors d’oeuvres will be provided, and your $15 cover charge includes the cost of your very own bottle of 2018 Leon Nouveau – which you’ll get the personal opportunity to bottle & hand label yourself, straight from the tank. Every guest will take home the exact bottle they bottled (with opportunities for photos) and the chance to have the label autographed by our winemakers.

Please call us at 716-731-3316 to make reservations. We require payment in advance to provide a head count. Space is limited!
