Conveniently located just 5 minutes from Exit 45 on the Thruway (Victor exit), 20 Deep Winery is where craft meets community. We make small-batch wines from hand-picked fruit, carefully crafted on-site. While we specialize in dry wines, we also offer a few sweet batches for those who prefer a touch of sugar. Step into our modern, open, and bright tasting room, where you can explore our wines in a relaxed, welcoming setting. In warmer weather, sip wine on the patio, play yard games, and take in the vineyard views. We’re kid- and dog-friendly, so feel free to bring the whole crew. Not a wine drinker? We also serve a selection of local beers. The best way to experience our wines? By the flight. You choose what you’d like to try, and we’ll pour. No reservations required, but if you’re bringing a group of 6 or more, we appreciate a heads-up. You can call or text 585-204-7953. Come visit and see why we’re a favorite Rochester winery for both locals and visitors alike!
