Imagine Moore is a winery that seeks to embody the true characteristics of the vineyards in which the wine is developed, to express the true passion and artistry of the farmers who cultivate the flavors. Our business is all about sustainability. It starts in the vineyard, where sustainable farming practices lay the foundation and flows through the tasting room where recycled materials build the framework of our philosophy.
We are the first winery to be established in the Naples Valley in over 100 years. Situated in the beautiful Naples Valley, just off Highway 245 and Hwy 21 in a circa 1865 renovated facility. We work with small family farms throughout the Finger Lakes to provide vineyard driven - fruit forward wines, representative of the region.
Our winemaking roots began in California where Tim studied Viticulture/Enology and his wife Diane International Relations at the University of California at Davis. Tim worked throughout the wine-growing regions of Austria, as well as studying at the Klosterneuburg Institute of Wine & Fruit. He brings ten years of winemaking and grape-growing experience in the Finger Lakes to Imagine Moore.
