NY Winemakers Tasting featuring RED NEWT CELLARS

This Thursday night join us at our Tasting Bar with Winemaker
Brandon Seager 

of Red Newt Cellars

Thursday, March 8

5 - 7pm

Brandon Seager has been the Assistant Winemaker at Red Newt Cellars since 2007. He comes to the wine industry after a career in engineering, which lends a somewhat scientific approach to winemaking, while maintaining an artistic balance and love of the grape.

He earned his Master's from Cornell University in Enology and Viticulture, and continues to draw from the vast expertise of winemaking pioneers in the region.

Brandon enjoys his constant role as Finger Lakes Ambassador, and is a champion of Riesling.

Red Newt Cellars wines are produced from Finger Lakes grapes sourced from neighboring grape growers whom they have long term relationships. Vinfication occurs there, underneath the Red Newt tasting room. 

Red Newt Cellars produces some of the best award-winning and well recognized wines in the Finger Lakes region of NY.

Riesling is our focus. We source Riesling

from seven different vineyards on Seneca Lake, translating those wines to a spectrum of style and lineup of single vineyard bottlings. Gewurztraminer is also a strong passion at Red Newt Cellars, with two unique vineyards less than 2 miles from the winery supplying fruit for our distinctive bottlings. Of our Red wines, Cabernet Franc and Merlot are our primary focus.
