  • While the Finger Lakes region is known for white grape varietals, Knapp uniquely prides itself in its premium reds.

  • Knapp is the first winery in the Finger Lakes to plant and vinify the grape variety Cabernet Franc.

  • Recognizing the importance of wine with food, Knapp opened its restaurant in 1992, becoming the very first winery restaurant on Cayuga Lake.
