The Remote Winery Near Buffalo That’s Picture Perfect For A Day Trip
If you need a relief from the work week, put some gas in the tank, roll the windows down, turn the music up, and travel an hour north of the city to the Niagara Wine Trail. While there are plenty of great wineries to visit on the trail (and we highly suggest hitting them all!), start by taking a sip at Becker Farms and Vizcarra Vineyards in Gasport, NY.
Becker Farms is located 50 minutes from downtown Buffalo in the town of Gasport. The property serves several purposes: bring the kids for an afternoon of apple or berry picking, or opt for an adults-only outing for a wine tasting and trip to the Becker Farms Brewery!
Becker Farms is picture-perfect no matter which season you visit during. From blooming cherry blossom trees in the spring, budding berry bushes in the summer, a sprawling apple orchard in the fall, and winter wonderland fun in the chilly months, there's always something to enjoy at this beautiful farm and vineyard!
Treat your tastebuds to the delicious wine options the vineyard has to offer, with tastings of their famous house-made wines. The strawberry wine, homemade hard cider, and blueberry wines are crowd favorites.
If you've worked up an appetite from your travels, you can also indulge in great dining options at the vineyard; because everyone could use some good food to soak up the effects of an afternoon of wine-drinking!
Becker Farms and Vizcarra Vineyards is a popular Western New York wedding destination, and it's clear to see why! The vineyard serves as a beautiful backdrop to wedding ceremonies, and there is no shortage of wine flowing for reception celebrations. Becker Farms has a wide variety of options available for brides and grooms-to-be for wedding packages, and also hosts special events and private tastings at their facilities.
Some people don't dig the sweet nectar of life. We get it (kind of), and so does Becker Farms. For those who don't partake in sipping the sweet stuff, there's a brewery on-site so you can still enjoy the tasting festivities.
Can't find any friends to tag along on your day trip? Not to worry. There are plenty of other things that will keep you entertained for the day! The staff at Becker Farms and Vizcarra Vineyards is super friendly, the views are stunning, and if you're lucky, you might see a chicken or two wandering around during your visit.
