Three Brothers Wineries and Estates

The wine slushy option says it all. It’s a fun spot for non-​wine drinkers.

Pro: Nice grounds and surroundings
Con: Wines are too sweet. And they are selling soup there.. . Personally I go to a winery for the wine and not to have soup – whatever…

4 stars for the ambiance and themes. 1 star for the sickly sweet disgusting sugar added wines. They have excellent marketing and terrible wines. For $ 12 you get a passport for 20 tastings (5 tastings at each building. 3 wine and 1 beer building). The passports can be shared with another person. Reservations are required for groups of 10 or more. Fun ambiance. Terrible wines.

This winery was really just not my style nor did the wine or beer do anything for me. I was rather disappointed at the tasting size of beer at War Horse (the brewery). It was a plastic shot cup. I get better sized tastings for free at our local beer store– or at a bar when I am trying something out.
Additionally, they really want you to get the «passport» and go to all the wineries on the grounds. It’s $ 15. From my recent experience, if you want to by anything other than the passport, the employees are confused. I’m not balking at $ 15, I’m just surprised that most people would want to try red wines, white wines, and beers.
I can understand why a lot of people would like 3 Brothers, the different buildings and themes are cool. If you like really sweet wines, you should definitely go. They had some live music on the Bagg Dare dock (one of the wineries), nice. Someone told me that Three Brothers is «like an amusement park for adults.» True. I’m glad I stopped to see what it was all about, and I don’t really want to deter people from stopping in with my review, because I think everyone would enjoy seeing the grounds there, but as I mentioned right away in my review it was just not my style and I wasn’t won over by their tastings.

The grounds are beautiful, the beer/​cider is good, and the wine is okay. It’s just too busy. I came here recently with a group of 4 and although we were there right when the winery opened at 10am, we still found ourselves waiting.
$ 15 got us a souvenir glass and tasting at all three wineries and the brewery. Interestingly enough, I found out later that a friend of mine came on the same day and she was charged much more for the same — I believe she said $ 20 or $ 25? Notably, their prices are missing from their website, so I’m not sure what is going on with their pricing.

Absolutely wonderful time. War Horse is the best!!! All bartenders were super friendly and knowledgable. Highly recommended.

A must visit!!! Our experience was incredible and the wine, beer and cider were all delicious! Find Denise at Bagg Dare and you’re guaranteed a good time! (She was an absolute joy!) Angela, Kate, Jimmy and Tony were all wonderful as well!

We work this winery in every time we tour Cayuga or Seneca Lake wineries. It is fun and whimsical, not your run-​of-​the-​mill winery/​distillery (Also really great root beer and orange cream sodas by the way)! I am a wine enthusiast and tantalize the palette you will. There are sweets for those who prefer them, slushies for those hot days, and an atmosphere that has you coming back for more. My friends prefer the sweeter wines, which are back by the bayou, so I grab my glass of an earthy red and sit by the bayou shore while they partake of the back «shed». A must to experience. If you prefer less fun stay in the front building on your left. Much to see and do here. My growlers of beer and orange cream are empty so I will see you soon!

Wow is all I can say this was our last stop and wish we had a lot more time to enjoy the wine and whole winery experience. We literally had 25 minutes for 3 choices of tasting plus a brewery. The first room we went to the lady rushed us in so we could try and get more tasting in which we were able to thanks to her great pouring skills. We ended up getting 10 tastings in a long with a 2 bottle purchase.
The grounds are great and welcoming as well are in and interesting. They have a slushy hut for one of the tasting rooms they have a restaurant which we just flew by. We did see the brewery but opted to go to the other tasting room in which you had to walk through a path to an old shack.
Wines were great with some interesting names we ended up buying 2 bottles. We definitely will be back to enjoy everything they have to offer!

Something for everyone. An awesome place to go for any wine tour. A must. The cider they brew themselves is amazing. Go with time to spare, the place gets busy… But there is a reason it is busy. Wine slushies, a must on a hot summer day. You will not be sorry stopping here.

Three Brothers Wineries and Estates is among the most corporate and sterile of the wineries on Seneca Lake. While booking a tour with a dozen friends, our limo bus driver warned us that Three Brothers is generally not welcoming to large groups. Before embarking, I called the winery and heard a recording stating that reservations were not required for large groups before 1:00. We were scheduled at arrive at around 1:00, so I called and requested a reservation, which the employee begrudgingly made. Upon arriving at the location, a Three Brothers employee actually walked into our limo bus without asking for permission apparently to conduct an inspection (of what I do not know). He then directed us to the check in area where we were herded through like cattle to the tasting areas. At the tastings, the servers were aloof and barely described what they were serving. Overall, it was a disappointing experience, and I will probably not return. I would recommend frequenting just about any other winery in the area if you are seeking more friendly, personal and knowledgeable service.

It’s like the Walmart of wineries, GTL was mentioned, for my translation services it will cost you a beverage. I’ll just say the people watching is at a premium. Pull up a chair, pack a sandwich and enjoy.
There is such a variety of locations to visit and beverages to try on the one plot of land. I think the highlight is the live music that was playing by the bayou. They are well staffed and organized, handling a plethora of visitors and bus sized groups.

Went to the Finger Lakes for a weekend getaway. Our friends felt this would be a good place because you can try wines or beers from 5 difference places whereas your typical vineyard only has wines that they produce and sell. As soon as we arrived, we were greeted by a group of very young guys who kept screaming John Cena’s catchphrase «You can’t see me!» and very young girls who decided that it was appropriate to scream across the courtyard at each other to hurry up and go drink.
We ended up buying a wine tasting. It definitely left a lot to be desired. The wines were given ridiculous names like «lushilicious» or something like that. When I asked the server what wines they used to make their rose blend, her response was «Rose?»
This is probably more of an establishment for those who have started to experiment with different with wine tasting. It is very casual and laid back. If wine isn’t your thing, they also have craft beers that you can taste/​buy. However, I do not recommend this place for those who prefer to go to a serious wine tasting and speak with people that actually know what kind of wine they are serving. Case in point, they have a chalk board out front explaining to people how to properly pronounce the names of wines.

Had a really great time here! The property is beautiful. The staff were so friendly and accommodating, despite the fact that we were a huge group of college students. I don’t have a lot to compare this winery to, as I have never done a wine tasting, but I had a great time and would 100% go back.
Word of warning: Everything I tasted was very sweet (as many Finger Lakes Wines are), so if you’re not into that, you may not be so pleased.

3 wineries, 1 microbrewery, and a beautiful estate to enjoy! One winery is for those who have a sweeter palette, where tastings include bubbles and wine slushies. One winery is a take on your «typical» winery, where you can try bold reds and flavorful whites. The final winery is over a small bridge and has a unique New Orleans flare to it. This is the happy medium of the two other wineries. My fiancé and I like to end at the microbrewery and try their ciders. All in all, this is a great place to spend a solid hour and get carried away by all that they have to offer!

It doesn’t matter how many buses pull in, every time I visit 3 Brothers I experience the same awesome service every time. And I get to sample delicious wines to boot!

This is a must stop for many reasons. And the MAIN Reason being that 1 passport gets you tastings in 3 wineries and 1 brewery in just one place! This is a sweet spot for celebratory tours, trail events, novices and party people. Whether you are starting or ending your tour here, its is suitable for both.
Passion Feet — described «For those who live life with laughter and abandon…» They also need to add «A sweet wine drinker’s dream come to life». The tasting room is like a girl’s dream walk-​in closet of accessories. They also offer novelty items and a book club. Their wine labels are cute and sexy with names like Take Me Home, Nearly Naked and the very popular Scandelicious. Not my taste in wine, but if your friend is into all things sweet and girly, they will love. This is also where you purchase slushies to go. To me they are too sweet with a fake after taste contributed by the mix they use, but a lot of my friends like it.
Stony Lonesome — described «For those who appreciate the finer things in life… clearly this is the only spot I do tastings in. For more mature palates, this winery offers a wider range of wines to make everyone happy. Even for the sweet wine drinkers. I really enjoy their 0 degree Riesling (11% alc, 0.5% RS), but for those who like it sweeter, it goes up to 3 degree, which would the their RS%. My other favorites are the Estate Reserve Gruner Veltliner 2013 and the Estate Reserve Chambourcin 2012. I picked up a few bottles on black Friday when they were 50% until 10am.
Bagg Dare — described «For those who have more fun in a dive bar»…and so right they are. This is by far my favorite of the 4 spots aesthetically wise. Goods spot for fun group pictures. It’s obvious that they have been salvaging funky items that make this tasting room look like something out of the backwoods of Swamp People. But first you have to cross the swamp like path allll the way «bagg dare» where you will find what it looks like a run down bayou house with a tin roof and all. This is the manlier, grungier and hairier version of Passion Feet. The guys pouring the tastings add very colorful wine descriptions. But with names like Ride’er All Night Blush, Skirt Lifter and Well Hung White, the puns write themselves.
War Horse Brewery — described «One thing that the brothers agree on is a fine hand-​crafted microbrew!». This is another nice spot for group pictures. Outside there are small war vehicles and patriotic pieces ti pose with. The tasting room also has a lot of vintage pieces to pay homage to our countries past. My favorite brew is the unique Riesling Ale. Malt decided to put a baby in Riesling and the most clean delishiz fruity aroma sweet nectar was born. They also make IPA, Wheat and Scotch ales, lagers and ambers.
Though I normally do tastings only in Stony Hill and War Horse, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this to anyone looking for a good time with a group of friends.

A friend wanted to go on a wine tour a few months back for her birthday and I am so glad I trekked EIGHT hours to get there from NYC.
We went in January so it was pretty dead but we were a pretty large party and the staff was able to keep up with all of us.
Most of the wines are sweet which is perfect for me because those are my favorite.
I still have dreams of me sipping the chambourcin ($ 14) and I really regret not buying at least 5 bottles of the skirtlifter ($ 14). It’s actually my favorite wine and I’m hoping to catch it on a sale or maybe find a coupon lol.
I didn’t drink any of the beers at the war horse but I had some of the non alcoholic ale which was ok for me, I generally don’t like beer.
The staff was incredible, the drinks were great and you can’t beat $ 12 for the tour.

The perfect winery for people with no taste.
You want shitty sweet wines? They got those.
You don’t like wine at all? They got shitty beer, too.
In short, the perfect tourist winery for couples who only agree in having poor taste. Enjoy!

Interesting place with 4 separate stops which means a good value for the amount of tastings you get and I thought all the items were priced well. We came on a rainy cold day though and it wasn’t as fun walking between all the building areas. Maybe provide tubs of umbrellas to go between places?
I liked the wine from Stony Lonesome the best and the different beers as I am more of a beer than wine person. I actually loved the root beer the best and probably would have gotten some if it wasn’t only available in a growler. The area where Passion Feet is has all the wines/​beers, so make that your last stop and pay all at once. Bagg Dare had a couple good ones, and Passion Feet’s stuff was a bit too much even for a sweeter wine person. I picked up a couple bottles for gifts and a bomber of Royal Kilt Inspector for me.
We came on a limo tour bus and they had a separate entrance and checked all of our IDs as we came in. Also got a coupon for at least $ 1 off one bottle and further discounts on 3÷6÷12 bottles.
