About Us

Seiche Winery and Distillery is located in Portland NY, near the banks of Lake Erie. We opened in 2020 and offer a number of wines made from grapes grown in our vineyard & from vineyards within Chautauqua County, see what's available through our online store. We expect to release our first brandy in 2026 after five years in barrel. The winery is owned and operated by Chris Costello and Misha Kwasniewski who in addition to their work at the winery are both faculty at a university in the region researching sustainability and fermented beverage flavor respectively. While we are not yet offering tours or tastings we encourage everyone to follow our activities through Instagram at seichewines.
