Auburn Monument was originally located on
Genesee Street in Downtown Auburn. As busi-
ness grew serving the local and outlying communi-
ties so did the need for a wonderful outdoor dis-
play area and therefore we are now located on the corner
of Columbus and Underwood Streets on the West
end of Auburn.
Originally known as The Casket Store, Auburn
Monument is now focusing its full efforts on con-
tinuing to be Auburns BEST full time, full service

Penguin Bay, a new sister brand
of Swedish Hill winery, is located at
the site of the former Finger Lakes
Champagne House, 6075 Route 414
in Hector, on the east side of Seneca
Lake. Our first wines were released
on October 8, 2005, so we are excit-
ed to begin our first full year as Pen-
guin Bay. The brand is a partnership
with the Rosamond Gifford Zoo in
Syracuse, as a portion of the pro-
ceeds are donated to the new Hum-
boldt Penguin exhibit at the zoo. We
currently offer three white and three
red wines. These include a dry white
Pinot Grigio based blend called Arc-
tic Three, a semi-sweet Riesling, a
Cabernet, a 4 variety dry red Shi-
raz-style wine called Maroon Four ,
and Tuxedo Red and Tuxedo White
(our fun and fruity semi-sweet blends).
New in 2006 will be Humboldt Red,
a semi-dry softer styled red named
after the Humboldt Penguins. Infor-
mational displays about the penguins
will be set up at the winery in 2006.
The partnership was a bit of a nat-
ural for us, since we have always had
pets at our other wineries (Swedish
Hill and Goose Watch). Since there
is no residence at Penguin Bay, the
next best thing to having resident
pets was to support the zoo program.
We find that many people do not
realize how many differences there
are between penguins and that all of
them are not the arctic cold habitat
types.
Since we had developed quite a
following as the only stop on the
Finger Lakes Wine Trail, that offered
many types of champagnes for tast-
ing, rest assured that you can still
do this, as we still offer our Swedish
Hill and Goose Watch Champagnes
at Penguin Bay.
