The Red Tail Ridge Wine Clubs offer members the opportunity to receive our unique wines throughout the year. Many of these wines are not offered in retail shops, are very small production & represent some of the rarest grape varietals in the world. All these wines are provided to members at deep discounts of 20% or more. Plus, we incentives to come visit us in the Finger Lakes through discounts provided by partnering businesses on Seneca and holding events at the winery throughout the year.
For those who cannot get enough Red Tail Ridge wine, this level provides 9 bottles, every six months. Two bottles that Nancy herself selects, the rest members have control over. It's the perfect blend.

Yes we do. The reason is that Red Tail Ridge is a very small boutique winery that in 2023 produced less than 5,000 cases of wine per year. We only charge for member events when we must to cover the costs of creating those experiences. We so appreciate your understanding and continued support as we continue to grow our winery and member services.
