Equidistant from both Buffalo and Rochester, about 10 klicks south of Lake Ontario, the Leonard Oakes Estate Winery not only sits on the Niagara Wine Trail, but since 2011 has augmented their award-winning lineup of wines with what must be New York's coolest cider; melding proper British crispness with juicy American flair and wrapping it up in an anachronistic sub-genre.
