Starkey's Lookout History
A Passion for the Beauty of the Finger Lakes Region
Dr. Olaf Lieberg and Tom Doran are the founders owners of Starkey’s Lookout LLC. Among other interests, they share a passion for the beauty and quality of life offered by the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York. They find Seneca Lake and its environs particularly compelling: whether the uniqueness of the gorge at Watkins Glen; the historic relevance of the City of Geneva; or the rolling hills, farms, and numerous wineries to be found in between.
As the Finger Lakes region continues to develop its presence as a world-class wine producing area, a growing hotbed for locally brewed craft beer, a burgeoning source of "home-grown" specialty foods, and an increasingly popular locale for gourmet dining, Lieberg & Doran decided they just had to be part of this ongoing regional transformation.
Starkey's Lookout Is Born
And so it is that these gentlemen have joined forces and surrounded themselves with the expertise required to produce and sell great wines, craft beer and soda. The result is a spectacular tasting, event facility and two wine shops perched on a hill overlooking Seneca Lake; surrounded by acres of delightful vineyards, orchards, and farm fields.
In short, Lieberg and Doran see Starkey's Lookout as a celebration of their love for the area and its rapidly developing wine, beer, and food-producing capabilities. We think you'll be captivated by the magnificent view as well as the accompanying fine food and drink; it is then that you will fully appreciate the motivations behind this amazing endeavor.
