A Toast to Conservation: CLWA Partners with Heron Hill Winery & Ingle Vineyard
We’re raising a glass to clean water and conservation with an exciting new partnership between the Canandaigua Lake Watershed Association (CLWA) and Heron Hill Winery, featuring the sustainably farmed Ingle Vineyard.
This spring, Heron Hill has released two beautifully crafted wines—a Chardonnay and a Cabernet Franc—that not only reflect the quality of the Finger Lakes region but also support the health of Canandaigua Lake. For every bottle sold, $2 will be donated to CLWA to support our mission of protecting the lake and its watershed for generations to come.
Both wines are made from grapes grown at the historic Ingle Vineyard, nestled in the hills above the lake, where thoughtful farming practices help preserve the local ecosystem. This partnership represents a natural alignment of values—celebrating the land while working to protect the water that sustains it.
We’re thrilled to launch this collaboration and see it as just the beginning. With your support, we hope to expand this initiative into a full “Wine for the Watershed” series—think wine-of-the-month club, seasonal pairings, and even exclusive tasting events for CLWA members.
Whether you’re hosting a summer dinner party or relaxing by the lake, these wines are a delicious way to give back. Every bottle makes a difference.
Find the wines at Heron Hill Winery or select local retailers—and sip with purpose. Cheers to clean water, community, and conservation!
