Wine Tours and Tastings

Your Experience

Great Wines, Great Times!

“Come as a guest, leave as a friend!”

These are the famous words of our late founder, Jerry Hazlitt, that we live by every day. Wine tours and tasting is fun and we make sure to keep it that way! You can relax, unwind, and enjoy award-winning wine with lighthearted stories, interesting facts and smiles.

Our casual approach to wine tasting allows you to spend a little more time learning about wine in an informal atmosphere, without the intimidation. Lively conversation, freshly popped popcorn and our friendly wine guides can’t wait to meet you!

If the winery can’t take your group when you arrive, we invite you to enjoy wine by the glass, wine slushies, food, shop the gift shop etc. inside the winery (if space permits) or at our outdoor bar, the Oasis (if visiting Hazlitt 1852 Vineyards, Hector, NY).

If you have questions about your group size or tasting experience, please call the winery directly as that is the fastest way to receive a response.

Private Charter Groups interested in a tasting experience at Hazlitt 1852 Vineyards, Hector, NY, please call us at 607-546-9463 and ask to speak to a manager.

*For the best flight tasting experience, we keep groups (large or small) together; we do not split them up into smaller group sizes. 

PRIVATE TASTING
A Private Tasting Experience is available for groups of 7-12. RESERVATIONS ARE REQUIRED BY PHONE and must be made at least 24 hours in advance of a visit. The fee is $20/person. Payment for a group is collected at the time of reservation. Cancellations must be made 24 hours prior to the visit to receive a full refund. The Private Tasting is led by a Wine Guide and includes wine/cider/wine seltzer flights paired with a charcuterie board with local meats and cheeses in a private tasting room. Plan for about 50 minutes for the experience. This Private Tasting Experience is available at both winery locations.

Limos and buses are welcome.

TIP:

Weekends in the summer and fall are when we see the majority of our visitors. If you are looking for a more intimate, quiet experience, we recommend visiting on a weekday and/or in the winter or spring (it’s also a great opportunity to run into a winemaker or owner).

Snack Baskets

We have a tasty snack basket menu available at both winery locations. Our Hector winery, Hazlitt 1852 Vineyards, has additional food options available at the Oasis.
