On Sunday, September 24 2006, the New York Times T Style Magazine - Travel , in an article about FInger Lakes wineries and restaurants New York Uncorked said:

A good place to start tasting is on Route 414 along Seneca Lake... where if you blink, you could miss the tiny shack that is Damiani Wine Cellar's tasting room. The owners, Lou Damiani and Phil Davis, are pinot noir specialists whose smoky, sensuous wines are templates for the kind of rich reds the area can produce in the best hands.
