A wine tasting is a great way to discover new varietals and enjoy some pretty scenery. But what makes wine even better? Alpacas, of course! At Savage Winery you can sip wine and say hello to the furry, inquisitive alpacas. Check it out:
Savage Winery was founded in 2013. It came about after the owners had spent years making wine as a hobby, and people finally convinced them that they should be offering it to everyone in the area. It's located about 36 miles south of Buffalo in the town of Chaffee.
The winery specializes in sweet wines, and you'll find an array of delicious varieties to choose from. Try a sip of the Vidal wine, a soft, sweet white wine, or try the Apple Spice, a sweet wine made with fresh apples.
The berry wines are the specialty of the house. Throughout the season, you'll find blackberry, blueberry, strawberry, primal (a mix of raspberries and blackberries) and loganberry.
Once you've sipped some wine, it's time to say hello to the llamas! These furry creatures are quirky, intelligent animals who are always curious about new guests.
Stop by Savage Winery's farm location for some wine and alpaca love! It's open Friday from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m., Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Monday through Thursday by appointment.
