Castel Grisch Winery - Winery in Watkins Glen - 3380 County Rd 28, USA

Very nice light show! Amazing! My 8 years old son is super excited about everything, especially the dinosaurs. Ticket ~$20 per person including wine tasting. The wine made by the boss taste so good. Better than any Christmas lights shows ever.

We wanted to hit one winery while in wine country and picked this one randomly. SUPER GLAD we did! Wonderful service while tasting, very kind, friendly & knowledgeable! Wines were some of my favorites from the Finger Lakes area. Our favorites? Too many to choose, but we took home the Baco Noir, Chancellor & Winter's Dream. Winery is spacious with a fireplace, deck, and beautiful view, as it sits up higher than most other wineries on the west side of Lake Seneca, it's only a mile or so off of main drag, also offers disc golf on large grounds and looking forward to an amazing light show of lit lanterns coming soon! It's definitely worthy of adding to your Winery stops!

Castel Grisch definitely wins an award for being the most unique winery we have been too. When you pull in really jumps out at you with some really unique sights. If you are stopping with kids / grandkids, they would find this place pretty cool. Even for adults it's almost a must see as it is so different. There are even "holes" for disc golf. I can't imagine this place lite up at night. The staff were friendly and the wines were good. We did take a couple bottle home after spending some time relaxing on the patio.

This place is AWESOME!!! I highly recommend making a stop here, even if you don't drink wine. They have a disc golf course and so much to look at and wander around. The view from the balcony of the bar is beautiful. Our experience was so much fun and if we ever venture to this area again, we will likely return. We did wine tastings and they were $10 a person for 5 different wines. I suggest making a reservation because they seem to be a popular place. Their indoor facility and balcony were clean and spacious. Overall a great time with our 10 person group of friends.

Wonderful staff for wine tastings, very friendly. Beautiful views. Toured grounds with family and had a ball. Can't wait for the displays to be lit up.

OMG! We had an amazing time playing the Lost World! Almost lost my disc in the enormous footprint! Super fun front nine with a long and mostly shady back. Stopped in after nine for a refreshing jalapeño margarita wine spritzer, which was amazing! Ended our golf with a mixed wine tasting where we purchased a few bottles to take back to Michigan. Fantastic and friendly, and our pups loved the special treatment! Cheers until we return!

My wife and I had planned to take a drive up to Watkins Glen during our Christmas vacation to visit our favorite olive oil shop and do a little wine tasting but we were still undecided until that very morning. The first winery we visited was Castel Grisch. As soon as we drove up to that iconic entrance, we knew we made the right choice. It was early afternoon and we were there only people in the tasting room at that time. We were met by Christine, and she personally handled our tasting. Her knowledge of the wines was in-depth and the conversation, that didn’t stick to just the wine, was fun and informative, with plenty of good laughs. We bought six or seven bottles of our favorites, and vowed to return in the future for the light show. We then walked the grounds, enjoying the displays and taking a lot of pictures. We will definitely be returning in the future and we recommend Castel Grisch for the good wine, great service and fun environment.

What a strange and fascinating place to find while on a camping trip. The wine was fantastic and the service was incredible. Walking around the grounds, while being mindful of disc golfers, was such a cool experience overall. Our group had a great time here and would definitely come back next time we're in the area!
