Swedish Hill

In 2011 Swedish Hill celebrated its 25th Anniversary of producing quality wines in the Finger Lakes. The winery’s story actually began 42 years ago in 1969 when the Peterson family planted their first vines in order to sell grapes to other local wineries. Then in 1985 the first grapes were crushed for Swedish Hill, producing 1,200 cases. Today the winery is owned and operated by Dave and Jean Peterson. But the Swedish Hill story actually began...

Here at Swedish Hill Vineyards we manage the complete process of producing our wines and those of our sister wineries, Goose Watch and Penguin Bay. We offer complimentary winery tours for all ages that includes:
