As has been mentioned previously, the Swedish Hill winery tasting room is small, and there is no winery on site. Instead, this site serves as an outlet/tasting room for wines made in the Finger Lakes region of New York. The gentleman assisting us was very friendly and knowledgeable, and the wines were decent, especially the Rieslings. A small gift assortment is available, although there is a more extensive one at their sister shop in the village, Goose Watch Winery.

Thank you for stopping into our Lake Placid tasting room and for telling us about your visit. We're happy to hear that our staff provided you with a pleasant experience of our Finger Lakes wines. We are very proud of our award-winning wines from our Rieslings and Chardonnays to our Cabernet Franc and Optimus. We hope that some day you might be able to experience our winery located in the Finger Lakes and experience more of our wines and the beautiful region.

Not much of a "winery" as the selections are somewhat limited. However, by all means get the Grog which is there spiced wine. Have ordered it through the mail in the winter and its fabulous heated up.

Tried to use a gift certificate purchased here and was told I would need to go to the finger lakes to use it. I even had the receipt stating it was purchased in LP and the card states it can be used in LP. Very bad business. I will never be back with this type of dishonest practice. That’s theft of $100 right there. Unhappy holiday spirit

I have visited here before and the woman working there at the time was very knowledgeable. This time the gentleman was just reading information off the print out that I could have read. Fortunately I do know about wine (I visit wineries, purchase and drink wine) as I have a great interest in wine. Think there needs to be some training and most of all, you need to like wine to really sell it!!

Going wine tasting isn't exactly synonymous with Lake Placid, but if you've had your fair share of Olympic Venues, a stop into the Swedish Hill Winery tasting room is a great rainy afternoon diversion. The staff was very attentive and the wines, while not extraordinary were reasonable. I really enjoyed the 2012 Reserve Chardonnay and bought two bottles. I'm an oaky-buttery kind of gal, so that met the mark. The Glogg was also fun and I'll be saving that for the holidays...it reminded me a bit of an alcoholic sweet spiced tea. The $6 tasting also included a class which was stemmed, not stemless. The only improvement I would make would be to offer stemless tasting glasses (they travel better in a suit case) and the pour seemed a bit light.

It was a rainy am and thought we'd check out this place. You can try 6 wines for $6 dollars. The salesgirl was somewhat knowledgable about the various white and red wines. Wines reasonable priced.

We have been to Swedish Hill Winery Tasting Room twice with a trip to the Goose Watch in between. We preferred the atmosphere and the wines at Swedish Hill. Everyone has been very friendly and professional. A trip or visit to the tasting room is a must.

My father loves his red wine, so we decided to stop so he could do something that he enjoys. However, we had our children and was not sure they would be well behaved. My Father enjoyed his experience and bought some wine, but the kids also enjoyed themselves tasting the non alcoholic grape juices, of which we purchased several bottles.staff was very friendly and helpful.
