Buttonwood Grove winery has established a reputation for producing some of the most noteworthy wines in the Finger Lakes, as well as hosting exceptional events, due to the hard work and dedication put forward by previous owners Ken and Diane Riemer. When the unique opportunity arose to purchase the beautiful Buttonwood property in early 2014, Dave and Melissa leapt at the opportunity. Since their purchase of the winery, they have greatly expanded the vineyards and completed the construction of a new wine-making building, along with upgrades to the on-site cabins and implementation of a full summer music series. In 2017, their efforts led to being awarded the Governor’s Cup, designating the 2016 Riesling as the Best Wine in New York State.
