Niagara Wine Trail booming

New York State's wine industry keeps expanding -- now topping the 240 mark, and no other region seems to be doing it any faster than Niagara County, home of the Niagara Wine Trail.

Schulze Vineyards and Winery in the town of Burt opened Sunday. Leonard Oakes Estate is scheduled to open in November. And Arrowhead Springs Vineyards is targeted for a February opening.

The Niagara Wine Trail started in Cambria as a two-winery organization in 2002 and already has grown to include 10. State lawmakers have approved splitting the trail into east and west branches.
