Tasting Class: Meet Oskar Bynke of Hermann J. Wiemer Vineyard

Hermann Wiemer has been a viticulture and winemaking pioneer in New York since he emigrated from Bernkastel, Germany in the 1960s, and the winery today remains a leader in the Finger Lakes for both wine production and vine propagation. Since 2007, the winery is owned by Hermann’s longtime apprentice, now winemaker, Fred Merwarth and the agronomist Oskar Bynke. Fred works to further Hermann’s vision by precise and thorough vineyard management and winemaking, while Oskar focuses on winery operations.
