New York state wines and spirits took home some of the top honors this year in the annual Finger Lakes International Wine Competition, held this year under special coronavirus pandemic precautions.

The competition, in its 20th year, drew more than 2,000 entries from 12 countries, and from 34 U.S. states and 4 Canadian provinces.

No overall winner is named, but New York took two of the “best of category” prizes in wine and two more in spirits. In all there were eight “best of” winners in wine and eight in spirits. Dozens of other medals were award.

Idol Ridge Winery on the east side of Seneca Lake in Lodi was the only Finger Lakes producer to win best in category at this year’s competition, for its 2018 Riesling.

The FLIWC has become one of the largest charitable wine and spirits competitions in the world run by a nonprofit organization. All proceeds from the competition benefit the Rochester area Camp Good Days & Special Times, in particular the children and families affected by cancer and sickle cell anemia. 

This year’s contest for wine was held at the Camp Good Days facility on Keuka Lake and the spirits portion at the organization’s Rochester-area headquarters in Mendon.

Here are the “best of” winners for wines and spirits:
