At the end of February we had the joy of celebrating an exciting new chapter for Keuka Spring Vineyards with the ribbon cutting of our Saratoga Springs Tasting Room at 15 Spring Street.
We were honored to welcome members of the Saratoga County Chamber of Commerce and Discover Saratoga, along with many partners and supporters who have helped make this moment possible. Their continued encouragement for local businesses and vibrant downtown experiences means so much to us.
This celebration was especially meaningful as we reflected on the journey that brought us here. Just two years ago, we first opened our doors in a small 400-square-foot space on Broadway, hoping simply to share Finger Lakes wines with the Saratoga Springs community. From the very beginning, Saratoga Springs welcomed us with what can only be described as unreasonable hospitality; open arms, enthusiasm, and a genuine curiosity for what we do.
We are deeply grateful for that support, and this new space on Spring Street is our way of returning the favor. Our expanded Tasting Room was designed to be a welcoming place where friends can gather, conversations can linger, and wine can be enjoyed the way we believe it should be: around the table and in good company.
Later that evening, we opened our doors to the community and our Wine Club members, and despite more than a foot of snow falling throughout the day, the turnout was incredible. Guests arrived in droves, filling the room with energy, laughter, and celebration. Seeing so many familiar and new faces braving the storm to be there was a powerful reminder of just how engaged and supportive this community truly is.
We are now welcoming guests daily at 15 Spring Street for:
- Guided tastings
- Wine by the glass
- Wine by the bottle
Whether you’re stopping in for a quick glass after work or settling in to explore the wines of the Finger Lakes, we look forward to welcoming you.
To everyone who joined us for the ribbon cutting, who stopped by during the celebration, or who has supported us along the way, thank you. We couldn’t be more excited to continue building community here in Saratoga Springs.
