We managed to convince proprietor Lisa Morten to send a few cases of this beautiful New York sparkler to us. A rare gem here!

Wine Advocate
(5/28/2021) "The 2013 Blanc de Blanc Sparkling Wine is all Chardonnay, unoaked, with five grams of sugar, 10.2 of total acidity and 12.6% alcohol. This was disgorged in January/February 2020, after 70 months on the lees. (The date is not on the label, but this is a unique disgorgement.) Sourced mostly from Argetsinger vineyard (85%; the rest from Hobbit Hollow), this is textured, bright and simply gorgeous. Showing anticipated complexity given the long time it spent on the lees, it adds reasonable concentration to go with its sunny and lively demeanor. It is always elegant, while the mouthwatering finish lingers, lifting the fruit. This is beautiful just now. The only question is how much longer it might age. It certainly shows some hints of maturity now, but only hints. Mostly, it is young and vibrant. The acidity should help preserve it. It seems to have the structure to drink well throughout the decade, at least. For what it is worth, it was arguably better a couple of days later. There is no reason to wait, however. It's beautiful today. Drink Date 2021 - 2031."

Red Tail Ridge Petillant Naturel Riesling 2019
91
Our Score
(6/2021) Situated on Seneca Lake in the Finger Lakes, Red Tail Ridge is utilizing some unique grape varieties to make some stellar and exciting wines! Using indigenous yeast fermentations and minimal intervention winemaking, it's easy to see why they have such a buzz among the natural wine crowd. This Riesling Pet-Nat is a beautiful sparkler, the mousse is fine, soft, and inviting. Sporting flavors of lemon, lime, apple, and peach, with an impressive strain of minerality. Medium-bodied and bursting with acidity this is an exquisite food wine. Pairs wonderfully with fried foods or oysters!

Red Tail Ridge "Petillant Naturel" Finger Lakes Sparkling Pinot Noir Rose 2020
91
Our Score
(7/2021) Sometimes a unique wine comes along that stops us in our tracks. This sparkling Rose from New York's Red Tail Ridge is one of those wines. Made in a heavier style with an enveloping texture and soft bubbles which stand out from the crowd, it shows dashes of strawberry, rhubarb, herbaceous cranberry and even a hint of darker boysenberry. Finishing incredibly long and pairing well with a broad variety of foods, this Finger Lakes Pet-Nat is an absolute must-try one-of-a-kind bubbly.
