Title: Mcgregor Vineyard

URL: https://www.mcgregorwinery.com/

Description: "The McGregor family established their vinifera vineyard in 1971, making it one of the first vineyards in New York State devoted to vitis vinifera, a species of grape native to the Mediterranean region, central Europe, and southwestern Asia. In 1980, the McGregors founded their winery and produced the first vintage of McGregor Vineyard wine. Ever since, they have produced estate grown vinifera wines that are known for their high quality and cellar aging potential. Bob and Marge McGregor didn’t know the journey they were in for when they began searching for suitable vineyard land around Keuka Lake in the late 1960s. However, they were certain it would change their lives and their children’s lives forever, and hopefully, for the better. A series of serendipitous moments led Bob to meet David Stewart (and wife Elizabeth), who was interested in helping make Bob’s dream a reality. In 1971, they purchased about 70 acres of land on the east side of Keuka Lake. Not only did this land seem to be well suited for planting grapes, but it offered one of the most spectacular lake views known in the Finger Lakes."
