I've never had a bad meal, and the service is always spot-on, with a thoughtful system that lets you signal when you need something without ever feeling rushed or overlooked. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with great music, fun events, and a family-friendly vibe that makes it easy to relax and stay awhile. Whether you're inside or enjoying the outdoor seating, it's just an all-around great experience every time. Easily a five-star spot in my book.

I attended a wedding at the Red Maple Vineyard this past weekend. It was a beautiful venue and the…read morestaff were superb and attentive. Our day started with a Chinese tea ceremony in the barn and then a catered lunch. About 6:30pm, the ceremony with a live music started followed by passed hors d'oeuvre, fresh oysters, and wood fired pizza. The wood fired pizza was very delicious and I enjoyed the blackened shrimp and the arancini. I tried the cider and the rosé, but they were too dry for my taste. Then at 7:45pm, we went into the reception pavilion. The menu consisted of a salad as first course, a duet plate of salmon and beef short rib for entree, and dessert. The summer citrus salmon with the multi grain pilaf was very good. After first dance, father and daughter dance, mother and son dance, and speeches, the DJ told us to step outside. After a few minutes, the sky exploded with light. It was a beautiful fireworks display from the hillside. The bathrooms were stocked with essentials in the toiletry baskets. Red Maple Vineyard offers a rustic barn and reception pavilion, massive green grounds, and a beautiful garden.

Love their story, loved their Wines and loved that they embraced our "SHENANIGANS" and we created a Great video production with their help. The vineyard is beautiful, ample seating indoor or outside, wonderful settings with sone firepits, food truck collaboration and I'm told Spring & Summer has loads of events for the whole family. We will definitely be back and Ask YOU ALL TO PLEASE go check them out!!!!!! Let them know the funds crazy bunch sent you, The Sisterhood Between The Wines #NakedCowboy #HolyCow

Out of the four, the '24 Traminette stood out. It had a nice lively honey flavor and was very refreshing. Usually, I'm a big fan of their reds, but found them to be tasteless. Service was decent enough. Atmosphere is always a winner at Benmarl with views of the beautiful Hudson Valley. 3.5 Stars

If you don't know where to begin, they have tastings of their wines, spirits, and ciders so you can find your drink of choice. The staff is also super welcoming and knowledgeable during this so you learn so much about each beverage. It does get very crowded in the fall so plan your visit accordingly.

Awesome winery with delicious wine!…read more When you walk into the back area with the gorgeous views it feels like you're somewhere in Europe. It doesn't feel like New York and it is the most beautiful place to celebrate, come out with your girls or spend a sunny day in the outdoors. We came here on a Thursday afternoon and it was super quiet and peaceful with not a lot of people, the perfect place to come to while family was out of town. Fun fact: 8 different wines are grown, harvested, fermented and bottled in their winery. They also have different flavored sangrias! Loved ordering the mix and match flight where we got to taste the sangrias and wines. My ooooonlyyyyyyy thing would be I wish the pours were a bit fuller since they're more of a sample size (or at least it felt like it). Can't wait to be back and enjoy more of their menu and gorgeous views!

The calamari was overcooked which dried up the squid tremendously that it was hard to bite and chew. One bite was enough to say no. The burger I ordered medium and again was over cooked and under seasoned. The service was so looong that it took us two hours to finish our dinner. Our lovely waitress did her best with a smile to assist, but looked like she was the only one attending to most of the tables. Water service was 20 minutes after we arrived. She tried her best to come back for our orders but that took a while again. Food took some time as well since there was a big group in several tables. For dessert, we ordered a scoop of ice cream and that took more than 7 minutes to come out when there were only 4-6 patrons in the dining room. If we ever come back, it would be at the bar, for drinks. Food and service at the dining section, not recommended anymore.
