Silver Springs is a small winery with a rich family history. The Zuccarino surname originates from Udine, a community in northeastern Italy, found above Venice in the Friuli Venezia Giulia region. The family ascended to the ranks of Nobility in 1320 C.E., when thereafter several Count Zuccarino’s emerged, helping to shape Italy. The legendary family passion for fine wine and vineyards has been passed down from generation to generation. The tradition continues–our vineyard on Seneca Lake, NY naturally has a climate similar to that of the Italian vineyards. And so, we proudly bring you over 700 years of family passion, as the legend continues.
