Afounding member of the Cayuga Wine Trail, Americana Vineyards & Cafe has been treating guests to many varieties of their award-winning wines for more than 25 years. The vineyard offers a taste for every palate, from a dry and flavorful Chardonnay or Chablis to the extremely popular Crystal Lake wine made from Niagara grapes to its dessert-style red Sweet Rosie.


A functioning swing barn in the 1820s, Americana Vineyards’ tasting room and gift shop was at one time about five miles away from its current location. Rescued from demolition, the barn was meticulously dismantled and rebuilt at its new address on East Covert Road.
