Welcome to Wines By Design!
We are a full service, on-premises wine making facility and wine-making kit supplier, located in Rochester NY. If you’re interested in making your own wine, come on in and we can help! We have hosted families, small groups, wedding parties and corporate team building events.
Or, if you are already an experienced vintner and are simply looking for supplies, we can help with that too. While our primary focus is wine-kits, check in with us, if we don’t have it in stock, we can probably get it for you!
For more detail on how your time will be spent making your very own wine, please see: our process.

2022 Wine Tasting Competition Results
The 2022 Wines By Design wine tasting event is complete! Check out the winning entries!
Recipe: Gourmet Blue Burger
A beefy, garlicky burger accented with rosemary and a tangy yet creamy blue cheese sauce; this is a match made in backyard barbecue heaven. Goes great with LE22 Malbec Bonarda Syrah.
Recipe: Smoked Salmon Pinwheels
Easy yet elegant, these savoury pastries are perfect for the fruity palate and balanced acidity of the LE22 Viognier Roussane Marsanne.
Recipe: Pecan & Parmesan Stuffed Mushrooms
Mushrooms are trending as one of the most sustainable, plant-based protein sources available and are wonderfully satisfying in this vegetarian appetizer. The earthy, meaty flavours can be enjoyed even more with our silky LE22 Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot blend.
2022 Wine Tasting Competition Results
And it’s a wrap!
The WBD Wine Tasting Competition is complete!
The Wines By Design Wine Tasting event was a hoot! (If we DO say so ourselves…)
We would like to start off by thanking everyone who contributed their wines to this year’s wine tasting event. There were some delectable wines this year! (Which made the judging all the harder…)
Lucky for us, judging was not OUR job! Thanks to all of you who attended, it was YOUR job to judge!
We had three categories this year: Red, White, and Dessert/Fruit. As a quick reminder, each category wins a $50 gift certificate to WBD, with the winner with the highest number of votes receiving an additional $50 gift certificate.
OK… we know why you’re REALLY here… you want to know the winners. So, without further ado:
2022 WBD Wine Tasting winners ($50 gift certificates)
- Red: Deb & Jeff Benedict – En Primeur Grenache Syrah
- White: Sandy & Kayle – Cru Select Gewürztraminer
- Fruit/Sweet: Fran & Patty Smith – Toasted Caramel
2022 WBD Wine Tasting overall winner ($50 gift certificate)
- Overall: Sandy & Kayle – Cru Select Gewürztraminer
Congratulations to all!

A Night at Home
What’s better than a night by the fire, some artisan cheese and a bottle of terrific wine you’ve made yourself?
We heard many great things about you, so we decided to check you out for ourselves.
(BTW: They were right!)
We cannot say enough good things about Wines By Design. The quality of the wine is better than most bottles of wine you can buy at the store, plus you get to tell your friends and family you made it on your own!
