It's 9:30 on a recent Saturday morning. It's cold, it's February, and it's the Finger Lakes.
But the parking lot at Montezuma Winery is packed.
There's a chartered Onondaga Coach tour bus at one end of the lot, a black stretch limousine in the middle, and just a few spots free in between.
Inside, people maneuver carefully, inching their way closer to the tasting area. Co-owner Bill Martin is moving as fast as he can as people wait in line to buy his wines.
It's just another busy day on the Cayuga Wine Trail, where people from across the country visit the 18 wineries around the lake.
