You are invited to celebrate the life and adventures in the Red Tail Ridge vineyard of our late, lovely Bueller. A rescue, Bueller was found chained in the middle of a field. Nancy & Mike adopted him and took on the task of bringing out the steady, calm presence and love of a good head scratch and consistent love that Bueller was famous for. He became one of our mascots because he was always up to meet a new person. He kept our woodchucks in check along with his brother, Tucker.

Not only was he famous at the winery, Bueller had a huge Social Media following. As such as beloved friend, he deserves a great sending off. So, come and join us for a toast and a walk about the pollinator field or by the pond to celebrate his life. Chef Samantha Buyskes will be at the winery, providing a lunch of locally-sourced Burgers and Hot Dogs for $25 per person for those who wish to enjoy. The glass to toast Bueller will be complimentary to all ticket holders.

A great way to kick off Father’s Day weekend is our Wine Dinner with Vesper in Rochester.

A Wine Club Member Experience that takes you into the vines as they are heavy with fruit. This walk is timed to take place just before harvest typically begins at Red Tail Ridge. You’ll take a jaunt through the vineyard with the entire Harvest Team, sampling the single varietal wines in the midst of those grapes as they soak up the last of the summer sun. If you are lucky and the grapes are perfect, you may also get a taste of the fruit before it’s made into wine.

End the experience in the Pavilion with light fare and some special bottles chosen to share by Nancy herself. A glorious way to start your Labor Day Weekend.

Open only to our Wine Club Members, this is an exciting set of events where you learn a lot about making a Methode Champenoise Wine, and walk away with your own Magnum of wine you helped to create.

On June 1st, Nancy & Meagz will work with you to commence Tirage for your own bottle of bubbly! That’s the induction of secondary fermentation in bottle.

On November 22nd, you will come back and work with the team to disgorge your Magnum…it’s messy! But someone’s gotta do it. You will walk away with your bottle and the label that you can personalize.

It’s a rare chance to get up close to the wine-making process for some of the most beautifully made Sparkling Wine in the United States.
