Gravenstein, Empire, Winesap and Golden Delicious apples are only a few of the 27 varieties available for picking at the Warwick Valley Winery and Distillery. Stop by the tasting room to sample some of the fine wines and hard ciders that have made this winery a success since 1994. If your visit to the winery falls on a weekend, make sure to stick around for the live musical performances as well.
