We are growing!

Welcome to the Black Bear Farm Winery, producers of the finest fruit wines and hard ciders made.  Our wines are made from New York grown fruit picked at the the peak of ripeness and handcrafted into flavors that are enjoyed by all wine enthusiasts.  Try an extremely aromatic, fruity, light, dry strawberry, a semi-sweet, tongue tingling hard cider or a nice round, sweet blueberry.  One taste and you'll want to try the rest.

 

"Part of our production facility"

While you sit at the tasting bar enjoying the many and varied flavors you can take in the scenery of Cloverdale - home to a once famous dairy cooperative - Cloverdale farms.  You will not see any homes, cars, power lines, or man made objects, just nature in its most beautiful form.  If you are interested in seeing nature at work, you can take the winery tour.  In our cellar you can see the wines in their different stages of development, something all our visitors enjoy.  So, come by yourself,  bring a guest, group, or even a bus and Black Bear Farm Winery will be happy to entertain you!

 

"Come for the wine, stay for the fun!"

 

We are located in
Central New York,
15 minutes north of Binghamton.
