Frontenac Point Vineyard & Estate Winery
All of the grapes used to make Frontenac Point wines are grown in the winery's own 18-acre vineyard
All of the grapes used to make Frontenac Point wines are grown in the winery's own 18-acre vineyard, on slopes of low elevation, protected by the unique microclimate influenced by Ontario and Cayuga Lakes. Frontenac Point's focus is on the production of dry wines, using barrel fermentation, the combination of estate-grown grapes, silt loam soils, the local climate and Frontenac Point's winemaking techniques produces wines that are truly exclusive to Cayuga Lake.
Frontenac Point Vineyard & Estate Winery owners, Jim and Carol Doolittle, were New York State government workers for 11 years, helping to pass the farm-winery bill during their time in Albany. When they retired from government work, they made their home on Cayuga Lake to start up their own winery.
