Sawmill Creek Vineyards is one of the most awe inspiring grape growing sites of the Finger Lakes; a steep slope straight down to Seneca Lake’s east shore and uninhibited views up and down the lake; a quintessential, Finger Lakes icon.  Less than one half mile from Red Newt Cellars on Seneca Lake’s southeast side, it’s steep slopes, shale soils, and exposure towards the long afternoon and evening sun have made it a prime grape growing location for decades.
