Blaufränkisch may be best known in Austria, but Red Tail Ridge proves the grape has a serious voice in New York’s Finger Lakes. Grown on the western shore of Seneca Lake, the RTR Vineyard benefits from moderating breezes, limestone-rich soils, and meticulous farming—all of which show up in this vibrant, site-specific 2022 bottling.

Medium-bodied and sleek, it leads with dark cherry, black raspberry, and a crack of black pepper. There’s energy and acidity to spare, but also a gentle, earthy grip that makes it feel grounded and food-friendly. The tannins are fine but present, and a subtle smokiness from partial aging in neutral oak adds quiet complexity without weighing it down.

This is not a fruit bomb—it’s a cool-climate red with lift and nerve. Chill it slightly, pair with roast poultry, grilled mushrooms, or sausage with fennel. For lovers of Cabernet Franc, northern Rhône Syrah, or structured Gamay, Red Tail Ridge Blaufränkisch hits all the right notes—distinct, expressive, and unmistakably Finger Lakes.
