This app describes Rock Stream Vineyards, an estate winery on Seneca Lake in the heart of New York's Finger Lakes Wine Region. The vineyards and winery are owned and operated by Dr. Mark Karasz. Mark is a retired Army Lieutenant Colonel with a PhD in chemistry. A three year tour in Italy inspired him to make wine and Grappa. After returning from Italy, he founded Rock Stream Vineyards in Rock Stream, NY and began growing his own grapes and making wine, brandy, Grappa and ports. The tasting room on Route 14 and Fir Tree Point Road has been open since July 23rd, 2005 and is now Seneca Lake’s only winery that is also a licensed Grappa and Grape Brandy distillery. Rock Stream also features live entertainment and our own special winery music which is now captured on our two CDs. The vineyard has 40 acres of vines producing over 200 tons of grapes annually to make premium, hand-crafted wines. The results truly make Rock Stream wine “The Wine of Your Life.” ®
