Red Tail Ridge has long been at the forefront of thoughtful, site-driven winemaking in the Finger Lakes, and their 2023 Pinot Noir shows just how far the region has come. Sourced from estate vineyards on the western side of Seneca Lake, this is a cool-climate Pinot that leans into freshness and finesse rather than ripeness or oak.

The wine opens with bright red cherry, cranberry, and a touch of forest floor—classic Pinot aromas lifted by herbal snap and clean acidity. The texture is soft and silky, but there’s enough backbone to make it more than just easy drinking. Minimal new oak and a gentle winemaking hand let the fruit and site do the talking.

Perfect with roasted poultry, mushroom dishes, or a simple cheese board. For fans of Loire Pinot, Cru Beaujolais, or Oregon reds looking for a New York expression with balance and charm, Red Tail Ridge 2023 is a bottle that overdelivers.
