• HAZLITT STORY •
Back in 1852, David Hazlitt bought 153 acres of fruit trees and vineyards here in Hector, NY. Over the next six generations, various Hazlitts farmed the land, raised families and made wine. OK, we don’t know for sure that they all made wine, but given the great grapes that grow here and the current generation’s track record for producing amazing wine, we’ve got a feeling they did.
We do know for sure that in 1985, Jerry and Elaine Hazlitt founded Hazlitt 1852 Vineyards. Today, our family keeps the tradition going. Our grapes make award-winning wines. Our wines make us new friends. And we love making both.
Did it start with dinner with friends at one of those chic little restaurants in the Finger Lakes, with us at the horseshoe bar in our tasting room or with a special someone on a first-date picnic? Maybe it was our Cabernet Franc that made you a Hazlitt fan. Or a Riesling or a Sauvignon Blanc. Was it love at first sip with our legendary Ice Wine or did our Red Cat bring on a different sort of romantic mood? Everybody’s got a Hazlitt story—and if you don’t, click here to get started.
We work hard to create quality products, and we want people to enjoy them responsibly. Hazlitt does not condone or encourage any irresponsible use of our products, and no words, images or information on this website should be construed otherwise. Alcoholic beverages can only be purchased by people 21 years of age or older.

I only had the wine slushy, but it was delicious! We went later in the day, when they had the band playing in the outdoor pavilion. Great atmosphere! And a super nice way to end a summer night of winery hopping! 🍷
