Castel Grisch Winery

Very nice light show! Amazing! My 8 years old son is super excited about everything, especially the dinosaurs. Ticket ~$20 per person including wine tasting. The wine made by the boss taste so good. Better than any Christmas lights shows ever.

Discovered this hidden gem nestled in Seneca that is an absolute must-visit. Not only does it boast phenomenal wines, but the warmth of the people and the captivating outdoor decorations and setups add to its charm. A stroll around this enchanting spot, accompanied by a bottle of wine, is an experience truly worth savoring. We will be back again!

This place is AWESOME!!! I highly recommend making a stop here, even if you don't drink wine. They have a disc golf course and so much to look at and wander around. The view from the balcony of the bar is beautiful. Our experience was so much fun and if we ever venture to this area again, we will likely return. We did wine tastings and they were $10 a person for 5 different wines. I suggest making a reservation because they seem to be a popular place. Their indoor facility and balcony were clean and spacious. Overall a great time with our 10 person group of friends.

We wanted to hit one winery while in wine country and picked this one randomly. SUPER GLAD we did! Wonderful service while tasting, very kind, friendly & knowledgeable! Wines were some of my favorites from the Finger Lakes area. Our favorites? Too many to choose, but we took home the Baco Noir, Chancellor & Winter's Dream. Winery is spacious with a fireplace, deck, and beautiful view, as it sits up higher than most other wineries on the west side of Lake Seneca, it's only a mile or so off of main drag, also offers disc golf on large grounds and looking forward to an amazing light show of lit lanterns coming soon! It's definitely worthy of adding to your Winery stops!

Very unique experience and a nice variety of wine. We loved it!

OMG! We had an amazing time playing the Lost World! Almost lost my disc in the enormous footprint! Super fun front nine with a long and mostly shady back. Stopped in after nine for a refreshing jalapeño margarita wine spritzer, which was amazing! Ended our golf with a mixed wine tasting where we purchased a few bottles to take back to Michigan. Fantastic and friendly, and our pups loved the special treatment! Cheers until we return!

Fun for the whole family! Fabulous wine and lots of cool statues and structures to explore

Family friendly, great tasting wine flights, friendly service. Wonderful light displays to see on sight. This was a unique experience, a must see.

What a strange and fascinating place to find while on a camping trip. The wine was fantastic and the service was incredible. Walking around the grounds, while being mindful of disc golfers, was such a cool experience overall. Our group had a great time here and would definitely come back next time we're in the area!

Wonderful staff for wine tastings, very friendly. Beautiful views. Toured grounds with family and had a ball. Can't wait for the displays to be lit up.

What’s great little winery in the Finger Lakes. This one is “off the beaten path” but not far from other local attractions/wineries. But we’ll worth seeking out! Beautiful countryside, nice big tasting area. Not pretentious!! The servers did a wonderful job telling us about the winery and wines and the tasting was at our pace which was so appreciated. We were able to sit out on the big beautiful back deck and relax. Grabbed some cheese and crackers and just enjoyed the last of the summer. Afterwards we wandered the grounds and saw sheep grazing and a menagerie of Donosaur and animal figures (see photos). Our favorite winery in the area. Would definitely return and highly recommend!

Had a fantastic time at this winery! Taking a trip here did not feel awkward, especially since I have not been to many wineries in the past. The younger woman who was working was wonderful and made my girlfriend and I feel incredibly welcomed.

We had a fun time exploring the property and looking at all of the giant dinosaur figurines and other animal figures they have scattered across the property.

They have a dry, sweet, and mixed list for the wine tasting. We had tried the "Sweet" list which gave us 5 different ~2.5 oz cups to try. We really loved all of the flavors that were given to us especially the Seneca Dream Red, the Seneca Dream Red Bubbly, and the Vidal Blanc Iced.

They also have a disk golf course if you are interested in that. The course travels around the property and looks like a lot of fun to do.

We went on a Tuesday afternoon and there was a couple people there when we arrived. The property is off of the main road so it is a nice quiet place to go and enjoy so great wines.

My wife and I had planned to take a drive up to Watkins Glen during our Christmas vacation to visit our favorite olive oil shop and do a little wine tasting but we were still undecided until that very morning.

The first winery we visited was Castel Grisch. As soon as we drove up to that iconic entrance, we knew we made the right choice. It was early afternoon and we were there only people in the tasting room at that time. We were met by Christine, and she personally handled our tasting. Her knowledge of the wines was in-depth and the conversation, that didn’t stick to just the wine, was fun and informative, with plenty of good laughs.

We bought six or seven bottles of our favorites, and vowed to return in the future for the light show. We then walked the grounds, enjoying the displays and taking a lot of pictures.

We will definitely be returning in the future and we recommend Castel Grisch for the good wine, great service and fun environment.

The views here are amazing! We celebrated a birthday here outside for our tasting and it was lovely. Very spacious and lovely to just sit back and enjoy. The only issue we’re the bees, which is understandable but we enjoyed ourselves and would definitely return

We visited this winery on a rainy day, and still were able to take some awesome pictures. The establishment has a beautiful deck with a great view, and the grounds have a unique style. The lady who did our tasting was very pleasant and welcoming. The wines were light and crisp. Overall we had a good experience.

What a fun visit to a winery in winter! The light show is amazing - it runs through January 31, I believe.
The bonus of their tasting room being open was a pleasant surprise. The staff is welcoming and wines are top quality. They also served a red wine parfait that was so decadent.
If you can get there, it is a great winery to visit.

What a fun experience. Do not let the lantern display and show put you off when arriving, the wines are the best kept secret about this place. Our wine hostess was fun, friendly, and knowledgeable. We will definitely be back. A must on your list to visit on your winery tour.

This place is spectacular. We were celebrating our 1 year wedding anniversary over this weekend. We both enjoyed everything. The views,atmosphere and the wine was amazing. We got to meet the owner at the end. The staff really know how to give you a great wine tasting experience like no other. We will definitely come back and recommend everyone to come here.

Delicious, varied wines are available at this established winery. On a hot summer day I personally love any of their reasonably priced sparkling white native grapes. Excellent staff, industrious owner, and an amazing view down onto Seneca Lake from their spacious deck. Also, while not publicly announced yet, effective summer 2020 they should be opening a terrific disc golf course to pair with their wines!

Fun and unique stop! Great variety of wines, very cool features on the drive in, and a covered porch that is perfect to enjoy some wine while it rains.
