Story

Red Newt Cellars Winery & Bistro is located just outside the bucolic hamlet of Hector on the east side of Seneca Lake in the Finger Lakes wine region of New York. As a recipient of Wine & Spirits Magazine's 2011 Winery of the Year, the winemakers craft elegant, regionally expressive Finger Lakes wines with an emphasis on single vineyard aromatic whites such as Riesling, Gewürztraminer, and Pinot Gris. Red Newt also produces world-class reds perfectly suited for the cool-climate region of the Finger Lakes: Cabernet Franc, Pinot Noir, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Had a great experience. Service was wonderful. Very knowledgeable on the varietals and responded well to our personality. Even suggested a great next stop in our wine tour that did not disappoint.

Great fun. They have a variety of wines, and some of the nicer options in the area, but at the same time they're no too serious about it all. Also, great view of the lake.

It is difficult for us to properly characterize Red Newt.  We are sure the facility, at one time, was THE place to be.  The staff are all very comfortable with one another and with customers, know the place and their product inside and out, but aesthetics have suffered simply due to age and wear.  As for the wines, we felt they were a bit of a mixed bag.  There are solid stylistic elements at play in many of the Rieslings, though many of the drier offerings straddled the fine line that divides "classic" from "ascetic." Old world-like tension and austere minerality could be found in these wines.  However, some of the harvest and vinification choices made to achieve this have smothered the lovely orange, tangerine, clementine, and floral qualities that Seneca Lake so often imparts to her Rieslings.  We ultimately did not find this style compelling, though some may.  An interesting experience, but Red Newt is not high on our list to revisit.

Beautiful location and nice food to try with the wines. Sunday brunch pianist adds to the atmosphere. Also look for themed weekend VIP events with tastings and paired snacks.

Great wine. Beautiful view from deck to enjoy a glass or bottle with a nice menu to choose from. A lite snack to a full meal.
