Yes, they do exist! However, not all 3 own the estate. Dave and his wife Luanne, along with a third partner, Erica, own Three Brothers Wineries & Estates/War Horse Brewing Co.  Each winery is modeled after one of Dave’s brothers’ personalities as they were the inspiration.

On December 6th 2021 our beloved Bagg Dare tasting room burnt down. Thankfully, no one was hurt and no one was in the building at the time. We are heartbroken at the destruction of the famed structure, its history and the authentic memorabilia inside, but we are grateful to the local fire departments and others who arrived so quickly to help. On September 29th, 2022 our new Bagg Dare tasting room opened it's doors and we couldn't be more excited to share this new space with you. 

Parts of the vineyard were planted in the early 1980's. Newland Vineyards was established in the late 1980's (now an Air Bnb rental next to the front parking lot). Nageys Newland Winery opened in the early 90s. Our current owners purchased the winery in 2006 and built/established what is now Three Brothers Wineries. The current winery tasting rooms opened in 2007, followed by the original brewery in 2009. Over the last 17 years every tasting room has received an expansion.

We currently have 40 acres under vine of primarily vinifera grapes.

Yes we do! We have made our own wine since our opening in 2007. And as of Spring 2016, we can proudly say we brew all of our own beers as well. Make sure to check out our new War Horse Brewing Co. tasting room!

One of the great things about Three Brothers is that all 4 tasting rooms and our cafe are all located within walking distance right on the estate.

Yes, we do allow underage guests on the estate. They will not be permitted to taste alcohol. However, they are welcome to do some shopping and sample our homemade sodas in the brewery!

Yes, we have food available! Iron Heart Coffee Co. & Eatery is our café on the estate.

We recommend allowing 2-3 hours to enjoy your tastings, do some shopping, and make purchases.

The best time to visit us depends on the atmosphere you are looking for! Early summer through late fall is our peak season. Saturdays are the busiest days of the week, while weekdays will be quieter.

Winter through early spring is our off season. We have shorter operating hours during this time. If you visit on a weekday, there is a good chance you could have the entire winery to yourself.

We can host private events, please email Barb@3brotherswinery.com for more information.

R.S. stands for Residual Sugar. The higher the residual sugar percentage, the sweeter the wine. 

IBU stands for International Bitterness Unit.  It measures the actual bitterness of a beer.

We currently ship wine and cider to over 20 states!

Our wines are available in regional liquor stores. We currently have our wine in approximately 200 liquor stores around New York state. If the wine you are looking for is not in your nearest liquor store, please ask them for it! Stores can contact us for a special request. Often, this leads to them carrying our wines year round. So basically, it's a win-win. 

Wine slushies are avaiable year round! We are constantly changing flavors, so make sure you visit often to taste them all!

While we do love our four-legged friends, dogs are not permitted inside the tasting rooms. They are welcome to be outside on the grounds, including the courtyard and deck areas.  We appreciate your mindfulness and tidiness when you do visit with your fur babies.

Our ATM is located in the dining room at Iron Heart Coffee Co. (our cafe).

While we do boast a beautiful view of Seneca Lake, we do not have direct lake access.

No fishing in the pond. Considering the pond has not been stocked in years, you are probably wasting some valuable wine tasting time!
