WEEKLY FINGER LAKES CRAFT BEVERAGE & NEWS ROUNDUP 10/21/2022

Finger Lakes Craft Beverage, Arts, Food, Travel, & Tourism News

This week marks the 2nd Anniversary of the Weekly Finger Lakes Craft Beverage & News Roundup and I want to Thank all of the readers for all of your support and kind words! I started the original Finger Lakes Weekend Wino website back in 2005, visiting dozens of Finger Lakes wineries every year and tasting over 500 Finger Lakes wines per year and giving my thoughts on the best of those. But when a Winery opportunity came along in 2009, I had no time to continue the pace of postings for that website. After we sold that Winery, then the pandemic hit, and I felt that there was a need for a media source to pull together a roundup of what was happening on a weekly basis in the Finger Lakes in the areas of Craft Beverages, Arts, Travel, and Tourism news. Now 2 years later, with thousands of regular readers, I am happy to be able to present this every week. I certainly welcome any comments or suggestions via the Contact Form on the website and again, Thank You all for reading! -The Finger Lakes Weekend Wino
