Welcome to our website!

Deer Run Winery is located in Geneseo, New York, on the western side of Conesus Lake and about 25 miles south of Rochester. The winery was founded by George and Joan Kuyon in 2002. In 2001, the first steps in establishing a vineyard were taken with the planting of vines on two hillside acres. The building, which houses our tasting room, banquet room and wine production areas, was completed in 2003. When the doors opened to the public on November 13th, we offered five varieties of wine.

Over the past four years, the winery has seen many changes. The Kuyon's son, Scott, joined the family business in 2003 as vineyard manager. Under his direction, three more acres of vines have been planted and the initial two acre block produced a harvest of eleven tons in 2007. We outgrew the production facility and added a second tank room in 2005. We have expanded our five wines to nineteen varieties, including many award winning selections.

We have established several annual events including a Valentine's celebration, a summer barbecue, and Candlelight Nights which take place every week between Thanksgiving and New Year's. We hosted our first Vintner's Dinner in November 2007; it was very well received and will be repeated again in 2008. We are hoping to add new and varied activities to our event calendar which will afford a venue to introduce visitors to our wines as well as provide a fun experience. Be sure to click on the "Events" button on our home page to see what's happening in the future. You can sign up for our newsletters and email notices too.

Lastly, let us extend a thank you to those customers who have discovered our wines and repeatedly come back for more. If you haven't visited us, we hope you will come by for a tasting, tour our gift shop or participate in one of our special activities.
