Wine

The
Showboat is located in the heart of the Finger Lakes wine region.
We are situated on the West shores of Seneca Lake halfway between
Geneva and Watkins Glen. Our central location is perfect to maximize
your wine touring while minimizing your transit time. Take a short trip
to one or more of at least 20 wineries within a 10 minute drive of the
Showboat or spend the day touring the wine region. All of the Finger
Lakes wineries are located within a 25 mile radius of our convenient
location.
The Finger Lakes area is New York's largest wine producing region. The
area is often compared to the Rhine growing region of Germany. Over 100
wineries and vineyards are centered around Seneca, Cayuga, Canandaigua,
Keuka, Conesus and Hemlock lakes. Because of the lakes' great depth,
they provide a lake effect to the lush vineyards that flank their
shores. The deep lakes help to moderate the local microclimate by
retaining residual summer warmth in the winter, and winter's cold in
the spring. Most vineyards are planted on steep hillsides overlooking
the lakes, which helps provide the vines with proper drainage and sun
exposure which reduces the risk of frost. The main grape varieties
grown are: Chardonnay, Riesling, Gewürztraminer, Pinot Noir, Cabernet
Franc, Vidal Blanc, Seyval Blanc and many vitis labrusca (native
American) varieties or cultivars. With the passage of the Farm Winery
Act in 1976, numerous wineries have opened their doors to visitors from
all over the world.
