  • Tackling Pinot Noir in the Finger Lakes at Forge Cellars, Partners from the Rhône Valley and New York Meet the Challenge
    Search Site Sign In | Create Account August 2017 Issue of Wines & Vines SUBSCRIBE » Tackling Pinot Noir in the Finger Lakes At Forge Cellars, partners from the Rhône Valley and New York meet the challenge by Ray Pompilio Pinot Noir is a difficult cultivar to grow successfully. Named “the heartbreak grape” by Marq De Villiers in his 1994 book about winemaker Josh Jensen at the Calera Wine Co., it continues to challenge growers and winemakers throughout numerous grapegrowing regions, especially in New York’s cool- climate Finger Lakes. This challenge is being met head-on by a partnership stretching from Gigondas, France, to Hector, N.Y., with its center at Forge Cellars on the east shore of Seneca Lake. The three partners include Louis Barruol, winegrower and winemaker for Chateau de Saint Cosme, owned by his family since 1570 (Barruol is the 42nd family member to serve as winemaker), and two wine professionals in the Finger Lakes: winemaker Justin Boyette and general manager/vineyard manager, Rick Rainey. Forge Cellars’ 2011 vintage, its first, was produced at the Hector Wine Co., where Boyette is winemaker. Each vintage through 2016 was produced there, but Forge now has a brand-new standalone facility built nearby. The winery produces wines only from Riesling and Pinot Noir. The 2015 and 2016 vintages are currently aging at the new winery, and 2017 will be the first vintage produced there. The new, energy-efficient winery facility is a 6,500-square-foot building designed and built under the direction of Rick Rainey. It was constructed of structural insulated panels (SIP) built by Energy Panel Structures Inc.

  • 2014 Update on the Chloride Hydrogeochemistry in Seneca Lake, New York
    A 2014 UPDATE ON THE CHLORIDE HYDROGEOCHEMISTRY IN SENECA LAKE, NEW YORK. John Halfman Department of Geoscience, Environmental Studies Program, Finger Lakes Institute Hobart & William Smith Colleges Geneva, NY 14456 [email protected] 12/10/2014 Introduction: Seneca Lake is the largest of the 11, elongated, north-south trending, Finger Lakes in central and western New York State (Fig. 1). It has a volume, surface area, watershed area, and maximum depth of 15.5 km3, 175 km2, 1,621 km2 (including Keuka watershed), and 188 m, respectively (Mullins et al., 1996). The lake basins were formed by glacial meltwaters eroding and deepening former stream valleys underneath the retreating Pleistocene Ice Sheet cutting into the Paleozoic sedimentary rocks approximately 10,000 years ago. Each basin was subsequently filled with a thick deposit of glacial tills and a thin veneer of pro-glacial lake clays. Basins not completely filled with sediment (e.g., Tully Valley), were subsequently filled with water and slowly accumulating postglacial muds. Seneca Lake is classified as a Class AA water resource by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYS DEC), except for a few locations along the shore (http://www.dec.ny.gov/regs/4592.html, Halfman et al., 2012). It supplies drinking water to approximately 100,000 people in the surrounding communities. Berg (1963) and Schaffner and Oglesby (1978) noted that chloride concentrations were significantly larger in Seneca Lake, and to a lesser extent in Cayuga Lake, than the other Finger Lakes. Wing et al. (1995) argued that the elevated chloride concentrations required an extra source of chloride beyond the measured fluvial fluxes to the lake.

  • Frozen Cayuga & Seneca Lakes Article with Picture
    When Cayuga Lake and Seneca Lake Have Frozen Over by Walt Gable, Seneca County Historian, Feb. 2009 Whenever we have a good “old-fashioned” winter, it is easy for Seneca County residents to begin to speculate if ‘the lake might soon freeze over.” The odds, while not great, are better that it could happen to Cayuga Lake than Seneca Lake. This is because Cayuga Lake has frozen over several more times in recorded history than has Seneca Lake. Cayuga Lake also froze over more recently (1979) than Seneca Lake (1912). This 1927 picture shows a frozen Cayuga Lake near the village of Cayuga. The infrequent freezing of Seneca Lake has led to a joke that people should put Seneca Lake water in their car’s radiator because this water never freezes. Apparently this comment was frequently mentioned to the trainees at Sampson Naval Station during World War II.1 Arch Merrill in his 1951 book Slim Finger Beckon makes reference to this “modern legend.” Some Basic Information Before going any further in this discussion, there needs to be clarification as to just what constitutes a “frozen over lake.” For our purposes in this article, “frozen over lake” will mean a lake whose surface is virtually entirely frozen over—allowing for some isolated “air holes” and/or areas nearer to shore where there is some “open water,” perhaps because of warm water being discharged. In other words, we will use “frozen over” to mean the same as “virtually completely frozen over.” If a portion of either Cayuga or Seneca Lake has ice extending from some place on the eastern shoreline to the western shoreline, when other parts of the lake are not frozen from shore to shore, this will not be considered as completely frozen over.

  • Appendices Section
    APPENDIX 1. A Selection of Biodiversity Conservation Agencies & Programs A variety of state agencies and programs, in addition to the NY Natural Heritage Program, partner with OPRHP on biodiversity conservation and planning. This appendix also describes a variety of statewide and regional biodiversity conservation efforts that complement OPRHP’s work. NYS BIODIVERSITY RESEARCH INSTITUTE The New York State Biodiversity Research Institute is a state-chartered organization based in the New York State Museum who promotes the understanding and conservation of New York’s biological diversity. They administer a broad range of research, education, and information transfer programs, and oversee a competitive grants program for projects that further biodiversity stewardship and research. In 1996, the Biodiversity Research Institute approved funding for the Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation to undertake an ambitious inventory of its lands for rare species, rare natural communities, and the state’s best examples of common communities. The majority of inventory in state parks occurred over a five-year period, beginning in 1998 and concluding in the spring of 2003. Funding was also approved for a sixth year, which included all newly acquired state parks and several state parks that required additional attention beyond the initial inventory. Telephone: (518) 486-4845 Website: www.nysm.nysed.gov/bri/ NYS DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION The Department of Environmental Conservation’s (DEC) biodiversity conservation efforts are handled by a variety of offices with the department. Of particular note for this project are the NY Natural Heritage Program, Endangered Species Unit, and Nongame Unit (all of which are in the Division of Fish, Wildlife, & Marine Resources), and the Division of Lands & Forests.

Its purpose is to promote the conservation of environmental assets which underpin Seneca County’s economic, cultural and environmental vitality. The key components of this greenprint are lands vital to water quality, agriculture, compatible tourism, and the health of eight natural resource focus areas. Descriptions of each component include an assessment of the resource and potential threats to its long term viability. Recommendations are made for each resource to promote conservation through collaborative and community based efforts. Sprawling development patterns threaten the Finger Lakes Region, degrading agricultural viability, environmental quality and the rural lifestyle held dear to area residents. Given its distance from major urban centers, Seneca County has been spared intense development pressures thus far.
