We are going to Pa for a few days and would like to check out any wineries that are worth touring. We have been to the wineries in the southeast part of the state and know the winemakers i.e. Allergro, Naylor, Nissley, Chaddsford. Can anyone recommend some other wineries?
Thanks Rusty in MD
Can't tell you which are worth touring or not but here's a little help...

One of the larger wineries in the eastern half of the state is Clover Hill in Breinigsville, Lehigh County. If you have taste for the far- out, try Long Trout Winery in Auburn, Schuylkill County; they have wines from well-known grapes as well as fruit wines and other stuff you would never imagine. I'm unfamiliar with winemakers from other parts of the state.

I've never been impressed with Long Trout. Grew up less than a mile away and I drive by there nearly every week. The nectarine wine (We All Live in a Yellow Nectarine) is OK. They rest isn't worth mention IMO.
I like Nissley and Manatawny Creek Winery
I certainly won't argue with the Manatawny recommendation. They have good Pinot Grigio and Merlot, and they are a nice bunch of folks, always worth the trip to Douglassville.
