Americana Vineyards has been farming the west shore outside Interlaken since near the beginning of the organized Cayuga Lake Wine Trail. The Joseph family runs it as a genuine family operation: wine and cider on the same property, a broad portfolio that serves first-time trail visitors and repeat customers equally well. The on-site cidery and Crystal Lake Café make Americana a dual-badge stop on the Finger Lakes Craft Beverage Trail alongside the wine trail. On the west-shore Route 89 loop, it sits at the point where the farm corridor and the wine trail feel most integrated with each other. Open year-round.
