The Black Russian (Georgian and Moldovan/Romanian growers would probably have hissy fit at the name) but the wine is solid though not of the 2016 harvest and I honestly don't think it's worth $70 but that is just me.
Given the location and views I would have expected better wines but I guess the views don't translate to wines. Out of all the wines that we had tasted that day and between the 6 of us it was basically the full range of wines offered... Well may be most of them.
Let me start off by saying I didn’t try their wines... because I never got the chance. Two of us showed up and were told it would be 15-30 minutes for a tasting because there was a big event in the back. We were then told we can buy a bottle of wine and wait on the deck. That’s when we said “no thanks” and left. I was looking forward to trying their wines but because of what seems like poor management/manpower issues, I never got the chance.
To tell the truth I was unimpressed the Rieslings in my humble opinion lacked the subtlety of flavors and nose and the Gewurtztraminer was somewhat bitter and lacked the intensity I came to enjoy in some of the other wineries in the region but even if we give it a benefit of the doubt that 2016 was generally not a favorable year for the region it still could pull off something a little better. Hopefully this years grapes would be better.
Amazing winery! Great wines that are worth every penny! The staff was helpful and curious!
A bit off the beaten path, McGregor's is well worth seeking out. The tasting room has a beautiful view of Keuka Lake, and comfortable tasting rooms where you sit at tables rather than stand at a bar. The staff are friendly and accommodating. None of which would matter much unless the wine is good...which it definitely is, especially their signature Rob Roy Red and Black Russian Red.
Service deserves a special mention given that such a large parties especially those with diverse tastes would be better served by bringing the cart full of wines to the table instead of running back and forth to grab the bottles but that's just my opinion...
My husband and I stopped here and we were so glad we did! The wines were excellent and staff friendly. We ended up purchasing several wines to bring home. We decided to make another trip up in the fall and will not be going home empty handed!
