Glenora Wine Cellars - What to Know Before You Go

What to Know Before You Go

With much guidance from state and federal guidelines, we've reimagined what a tasting looks like at Glenora, and we wanted to give our Glenora faithful an idea of what their experience will be - and what extra precautions we're undertaking in the tasting room to ensure the health and safety of both guests and staff.

All guests and staff will be required to wear masks at all time while inside our tasting room. Masks may be removed only during wine tasting.
While we will not be taking reservations, we will be limiting the number of people in the tasting room and retail shop, based on state regulations regarding capacity. We will have a defined queue, and guests will be asked to maintain six feet of physical distance from other groups during their visit.
All tastings at Glenora, for the time being, will take the form of flights. The flight options will each consist of six different Glenora wines. Guests will be seated throughout the tasting process.
Seated flights are offered on a first come, first served basis and based on availability.
Maximum group size to visit our tasting room is 6 people.
- Due to limited capacity and seating, we cannot guarantee that your group will be able to sample wine at the same time, so be prepared for a longer visit.
- Groups larger than 6 people will be broken up and most likely not sat at the same time.
- We offer wine by the glass and featured fruit wine slushies as an alternative to wine tasting.
All alcoholic beverages bought and consumed at Glenora must be accompanied by the purchase of food, per New York State mandate. Guests will be offered today's featured selections as part of their tasting experience. Food must be purchased in conjunction with alcohol consumed on site at Glenora.
Employee and guest safety is our first priority. Know that we are taking extra steps to protect you and our employees, including thorough professional cleaning, dividing screens at checkout, dedicated entrances and exits, and directional traffic.
We ask that all guests follow all CDC guidelines related to hand washing and hygiene. Hand sanitizer will be available throughout the tasting room.
Per industry recommendations, dogs are not allowed in the tasting room at this time. Even the good ones. We know - we don't like it either.
Most importantly - if you are feeling unwell, please stay home. We'll be here to welcome you back when you're feeling better.

Our retail shop will continue to be open for retail and bottle sales, and offering optional curbside pickup. Call us at 800-243-5513, place and process your order, and one of our retail associates will bring your order to your car. Curbside pickup is also available via our online store. Once your order is completed, select "Pickup" from the delivery options and enter your anticipated pickup time in the order notes. A quick call upon arrival, and you'll be on your way in no time.

We will continue shipping via our online store. Visit our product pages for a list of states we currently ship to, and to learn more about our current promotions and quantity discounts.

Chef Patrick Higgins and the Veraisons Restaurant team continue to bring you farm-fresh, seasonal cuisine.

So what's new, besides the menus?

Each day of the week, we'll have service from 12:00pm-8:00pm, featuring a beautiful, transitional menu - with entrees, sandwiches, salads, small plates, and dessert available all day long.
On weekends, breakfast will be served from 8:00am-11:00am, with local and seasonal dishes to please any palate.
Due to state regulation, the restaurant cannot seat parties larger than 10 people per table.
Tables in our dining room have all been set six feet apart, per state distancing regulation.
All menu items are available to-go, and can be delivered to our Inn guests as room service.
Anyone that wishes to consume an alcoholic beverage at the lounge/restaurant must purchase a food item off our menu to accompany the alcoholic beverage. One or more shareable food item(s) may be purchased, so long as it/they will sufficiently serve the number of people in the party.
Patrons will be required to wear face coverings, except while seated, to ensure their health and safety and that of our other guests.
Outdoor seating is closed for the season.
At this time, reservations are required.

The Inn at Glenora Wine Cellars is accepting reservations as normal, and our team has refined every part of the guest experience to make sure you're staying as safe as you are relaxed.
