Red Tail Ridge 2008 Semi-Dry Riesling (Finger Lakes)

  1. $16
A nice racy version, with lots of petroleum and peach character shot through with notes of wet stone. Ends on a lingering grapefruit peel tone. Try with sweet and sour pork. Drink now.  — W.E.  (5/1/2010)

Red Tail Ridge 2006 Barrel Fermented Chardonnay (Finger Lakes)

  1. $18
This is an impressive wine, with its aromas of pear, apple, spice and honey, and its rich spiced flavors buoyed by crisp acidity. Complex but refreshing, with a smooth, lingering finish. Overall, food friendly and stylish.  — S.K.  (2/1/2009)

  • Best Buy
  • Online Exclusive
  1. $11
This single-vineyard Chard with no oak has a light bouquet with nuances of white florals and red apple. The palate offers more heft and concentration with flavors of peach preserves and clementine supremes. Lower alcohol with a medium-length finish; rich and tasty without being overdone.  — L.B.  (7/1/2010)

Red Tail Ridge 2008 Dry Rosé (Finger Lakes)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $17
A subtle, pretty nose of vanilla, cherry and strawberry is backed up by bigger flavors of sour cherry, spice and vanilla. Fun and exuberant but not terribly delicate. A good match with meats and poultry.  — S.K.  (2/1/2010)

Red Tail Ridge 2007 Martini Family Vineyard Lemberger (Finger Lakes)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $19
Opens with a spicy nose of raspberry, Christmas cake and plum pudding. There isn’t a lot of ripeness or concentration on the palate but this is a very likeable wine that is crisp, elegant and light on its feet. There’s only a gentle dusting of tannins, making it a suitable partner for heartier varieties of fish. Drink up before 2012.  — W.E.  (5/1/2010)
