I'm writing this review now because I opened their Special Reserve Brut on 5/16 w friends and was blown away by the mousse (tiny soft bubbles) that was an absolute delight!

The wine club is also changed and very expensive for options you may not want. Their food items are very expensive. A cheese platter does not include crackers like it used to so you have to pay a ridiculous amount for a box of crackers. To sit by the pond costs $30 and definitely not worth it. You never know when the loft area is closed for a private event either. We used to go there often but now not worth the cost. I can buy their wine at a store and save a lot of money. so disappointing

9/14/25: Love coming to Fjord Vineyards!…read more We came for their Oyster Party Weekend. Marilyn greeted us when we checked in. She escorted us over to a table with a marvelous view of the vineyards. Maria was our wonderful and charming server. She came over with a complementary glass of their wonderful rosé wine. I'm not a rosé drinker, but it was delicious. We enjoyed a wonderful flight of wines. Our favorite was their '23 Double Fall Line $32. It has a marvelous smooth blend of Cab Franc, Merlot and Blaufränkisch (Austrian Blue) Grapes. Two bottles came home later. : ) Of course, we had to indulge in some wonderful lobster rolls. Each lobster roll was $23, plus for an extra $9 you get a nice dollop of caviar to top it off ! The lobster was from a company called Oyster Party in the NY area. I think the lobster rolls were some of the best I ever had. Just a couple of notes: - It appears the hill leading up to the vineyard was recently paved. Previously, it was extremely uneven. - Be sure to make reservations online. - Parking is available within steps of entering the vineyard. Can't wait to return! : D

We went because all four of us visiting the Hudson River Valley love sparkling wine. It is so expensive to get those bubbles into the bottles, as it were, that few wineries produce bubbly in NY and we were intrigued to try this vintner's product. Even if they do use Seyval as the base varietal. (Not our fav.) Lovely setting. Fun and funky tasting room. A great guy behind the tasting bar (CIA graduate now moved from food to wine) pouring one of the vineyards two sparklers and several of their wines derived from fruit other than grapes. A modest tasting fee ($10) provides five tastes of your choice. But I'm sorry to say we were not fans of the wine. Sparkling or otherwise. We almost always buy at least one "courtesy bottle" at a winery, even if we've had to pay for tasting. But we couldn't do that here. More fun or not depending on one's politics is the photo wall of pictures of the owners and Hillary Clinton and correspondence with Hillary Clinton. (Sadly, the husband of the husband - wife owner team passed away last year.) Wine aside, the setting is lovely and you can stroll around the grounds. And this is an easy - and beautiful - drive from the Hyde Park historical site to finish off a day of history touring. And it's on route to Red Devon Market, Bar and Restaurant, where we were headed for dinner. (And where YOU should go too...breakfast, lunch or dinner. Extraordinary place. But that's a different review. :-) ) Had I known this would be a first review for Clinton Vineyards I would have taken photos of the lovely setting and better photos of the tasting room. So it goes. But check the web site where beautiful pictures are posted for this charming place. A visit just for the setting is worthwhile even if you don't appreciate the wine.

The road to get to the vineyard is fairly secluded and it provides a beautiful scenic ride, which is an added bonus. The vineyard itself is very pretty and you can explore the grounds at your leisure. Tastings are $10 a person and you get to try around 5-6 wines each. I was with my fiancée and we got different ones and tried each others, so we were able to try everything, about 10-12 different wines. The winery specializes in dessert wines and champagne and they make quite a few really, really good ones. Their raspberry wine is super sweet and would go really well with a rich, chocolate dessert and their peach champagne is one of the best wines I've ever had. One of our favorites was their black currant wine and it's nice to see black currants being used, since they're so tasty. Overall, this winery is very nice and they make quite a lot of very good wines, though they are very expensive. If you don't like sweet wines or champagne, then this is definitely not the place for you. However, if you have a sweet tooth, you'll love this vineyard!

Our day started with a Chinese tea ceremony in the barn and then a catered lunch. About 6:30pm, the ceremony with a live music started followed by passed hors d'oeuvre, fresh oysters, and wood fired pizza. The wood fired pizza was very delicious and I enjoyed the blackened shrimp and the arancini. I tried the cider and the rosé, but they were too dry for my taste. Then at 7:45pm, we went into the reception pavilion. The menu consisted of a salad as first course, a duet plate of salmon and beef short rib for entree, and dessert. The summer citrus salmon with the multi grain pilaf was very good. After first dance, father and daughter dance, mother and son dance, and speeches, the DJ told us to step outside. After a few minutes, the sky exploded with light. It was a beautiful fireworks display from the hillside. The bathrooms were stocked with essentials in the toiletry baskets. Red Maple Vineyard offers a rustic barn and reception pavilion, massive green grounds, and a beautiful garden.

I've taken 2 wine classes (wine 101) and I'm already looking to take the Wine 202 class…read more This is my type of wine class because: - It's located near Midtown Manhattan - The instructor is really chill - You are given different games to play which helps you remember the different wines and information about them - There's a variety of wines - There is no spit bucket (so chances are you'll get lit) - It's an open space so you get to meet other wine lovers Both wine classes I've taken have been on Fridays because you do tend to get a wee bit tipsy testing all of the wines. I first learned of the class through Groupon so I suggest looking there first if you are interested in taking a class here but either way if you interested in learning how to differentiate between the age of wines, the percentage of wines and practice your sense of smell (to determine what's in the wine) this place is for you.
