Agenda
Day 1: Our Conference Begins!
Sunday begins with conference check-in and early morning bites in Geneva before we head into the Finger Lakes for back-to-back seminar sessions at our partner wineries, Heron Hill and Dr. Konstantin Frank. After a short afternoon break, we return to Linden Street for one of FLXcursion’s signature events: The Riesling Crawl. This lively evening will pair the Finger Lakes with some of the great Riesling regions of the world, including Germany, Austria, Australia, and New Zealand. Think Mosel meets West Seneca, Austria meets East Seneca, and Keuka meets Australia/New Zealand — a global team-up celebrating Riesling, cool-climate wine, and the energy of an FLXcursion experience. Finally, Sunday night keeps the celebration going with karaoke, dancing, and after-party shenanigans on Linden Street to close out the first full night of the conference.
