The owner is amazing, generous and personable. The champagne is outstanding. The brunch tasting was very nice. Lot's of nature, you can walk in the vineyards and the store has amazing carnival headpieces from Brazil. Check out the owners photos on the wall in the store. We celebrated my friends birthday and it was such a great experience. The service was so good and I would definitely go back! read more

Horrible experience. I honestly hate writing reviews but this place really did set the bar for the snobbiest establishment on Long Island. The reason we gave this vineyard one star was because the only saving grace of our experience was our second server, Michael whom was very nice & friendly with us. Especially considering that we have been to this vineyard before (pre-pandemic) & it was actually a great experience then when they allowed children. But, this is the first vineyard we have been to DURING the pandemic that we were told children weren't allowed to come. All of the other surrounding vineyards are so welcoming of children even during the pandemic. Originally, we had made a reservation & were told that we can bring our 2 year old with us. When we showed up, we were immediately turned away because we brought our little one. We had mentioned that we had a reservation & said that we were told over the phone that it was fine to bring our daughter but the hostess was not having it at the door & mentioned that that could have never been them to allow it. Thankfully, my in-laws were nearby to take our daughter for the day. For the actual few minutes it took for my in-laws to take our daughter, the hostess cancelled our reservation while we told her not to. Even our friend whom was under our reservation had stayed by the door (while we handed our daughter off to my in-laws) to make sure she didn't cancel the reservation! Once we walked in to be seated, the hostess tried to turn us away & said that we 'walked away' & that's why she canceled our reservation. Once we were seated, we were told that they don't serve bottles to the table because of COVID. Which was completely ridiculous. Once seated, we were also rudely reminded that the vineyard was closing in an hour from then. However, parties were continuously being seated well over a half an hour after we were seated. We really expected our experience here to be similar to the many times we have been there before but pandemic or not doesn't mean a professional establishment should treat their paying customers this way. read more

This vineyard is STUNNING! The setting is very modern in comparison to many of the other vineyards I have visited on Long Island's North Fork. Like seriously - who is the architect!?! I would have loved to stay inside and enjoy the lavish decor, however, my group visited on an absolutely BEAUTIFUL Autumn Day and we had a large seating area reserved for us on the lawn, just off of the vineyards. I worked with the staff in advance to accommodate our large group and they were happy to have us as long as we took their 11am slot. They were ready for us upon arrival and our server was very knowledgeable and polite! At $17pp, this was our most expensive tasting of the day during our tour, but you must consider you are getting 4 pours of sparkling wines so it is well worth the value. I went home with the Brut as I like my white wines and sparklings DRY but I certainly believe in the 4 pours that there was something for everyone...as long as you like sparklings, you will LOVE Sparkling Pointe! Can't wait to return for one of their special events! read more

Such a fun approach on the normal vineyard experience. Once you arrive, there's a large parking lot in front and you enter into a big building that has indoor tables and high ceilings with chandeliers. We saw the hostess for outside seating. They have tables set up for different sizes of parties and the deck overlooks the vineyard. Our waitress was so sweet and recommended just doing the standard champagne flight to really taste each one. We paired it with a neutral white cheese which came out as a huge block with a box of crackers, and we were just expecting a small slice or two, so it's definitely worth the price. The champagnes were all delicious, and the atmosphere was so fun and relaxing. read more

Never been to any restaurant/bar/club/vineyard where someone on the wait staff would publicly embara- not embarass, but MORTIFY you for dropping a glass. The wine was good. The people that worked there? Stuffy, stuck up, and unfriendly towards younger adults (my party and I were between the ages of 25 and 30). Despite having a reservation for 7, we were almost rejected at the door for having 7 people. If they didn't seat more than five, they shouldn't have agreed to the reservation in the first place. A group of 8 40-50 year olds showed up in two foreign sports cars at the same time as us and were treated like royalty. After driving all the way out here, this is how paying customers were greeted. After much adieu, we were split into two tables and despite our polite complaint to the waittress (acknowledging she was NOT the problem), she responded to us very rudely. The food options that afternoon were potato chips or $35 dollar minimum per ounce caviar. I accidentally dropped a glass, because they didn't do a great job clearing our glasses off the table as we finished, and the waitress yelled "Alright, who did it? Who did it?!" I admitted it was me, with an apology, but she cut me off, despite it being my first vineyard of the day and my BAC probably being within legal driving territory. On top of that, the waitress proceeded to eavesdrop on our conversation the rest of the time, and finally acted on it after hearing someone at my table say that she wasn't pleased here. So the waitress brought us a check and asked us to leave. We were neither loud nor rowdy. All of us have high paying banking jobs and would have tipped her just as the sports car drivers probably did. But we were judged based on our age and our arrival vehicle - a bus. Horrible service. Horrible, stuck up wait staff. Is the wine worth it? It actually just might be. Would be a 5 star review if they straightened things out with their employees. Real shame. read more

Didn't have the best experience with SP. We assumed they were only seating reservations so we decided to call and ask about the wait time for walk ins. The lady on the phone said the wait wasn't bad at all and to speak to the manager checking in the cars. We turned around, drove out of our way to reach SP, and were told the waiting list was two hours long. Cars were literally parked waiting on the grass. In addition, the "manager" checking in cars was rude and basically told us tough luck. Big thanks to whoever answered the phone and made things up. read more

When we arrived, the guy who approached us, said he was the general manager, was extremely rude. I understand that due to COVID big parties cannot be sat, but we had made two separate reservations and accepted we would not be able to share tables or communicate with each other the whole time. However, when we arrived, the manager REFUSED to listen to us and rather just said he cannot seat us over and over again. Again, I understand current regulations, but this is NO WAY to treat customers. Despite the horrible experience in the beginning, the waitress was very friendly and I appreciated how knowledgeable she was on the menu and the wine. read more

The service was exceptional. We were able to sit outside in nice weather and the staff was great about describing the different options and suggesting pairings. The champagne was AMAZING! 10/10 recommend to anyone looking for a great tasting experience read more

My experience at Sparkling Pointe was absolutely horrible. I arrived with a group of 12 (2 separate 6 person reservations) and was met in the parking lot by the manager who immediately said he would not seat us. He was EXTREMELY rude. I could not believe how the manager of this establishment would act in such a disgusting matter. read more

We booked on Resy for New Year's day 2021. The wine and cheese were wonderful. Our server gave us 2 complimentary glasses each (potentially because of it being New Years- I'm unsure if this is an every day thing). They require you to wear your mask when interacting with waiters which we completely respected. The actual space is gorgeous and the grounds look like they would be more beautiful in the winter. Toward the end of our timed seating, we saw them disinfect each table. We will definitely return. read more

This year, I spent a beautiful week in Greenport in August with a couple of my girlfriends. Visiting the vineyards was definitely on top of my to-do list. The view at Sparkling Pointe was breathtaking. We arrived near to closing time, so it wasn't crowded and a light, lovely breeze was fanning our faces as we sat taking in the view of the vineyard and sipping our cool wine. It was a very relaxing hour. We considered doing the tasting, but it was the end of a long,long day and I love rose champagne, so we opted for their salmon coloured sparkling wine called Topaz. We also had some yummy cheeses and crackers to go with the wine. Overall, very relaxing experience! read more

Love this place. The staff is so friendly! From the moment we arrived my party was welcomed and greeted warmly. The venue is beautiful. I wish we had more time to visit. I felt as though I was on vacation. The sparkling wines were delicious and the chocolate pairings were original. We are definitely planning a return visit. Do not hesitate to come, you won't regret it. To quote a previous reviewer 'Classy but not stuffy.' read more

The place is clean and fairly new. Built in 2009. Champagne was ok but nothing all that great. Drinkable. The view out back is nice and relaxing to sit at the outdoor tables. Service is good! Due to the Long Island soil and climate there is only so much a winemaker can do with producing a good wine. read more

This place is pretentious AF. We called ahead to ask if we need a reservation for 7 people. They said no. We showed up with 7 people as planned and the place was completely empty. They immediately told us that we cannot have a party of 6 or more. They really need to get their shit together and train their staff who answer the phones to be up to date on current guidelines. We spent money to take a limo out there and they totally screwed us. The fact that they couldn't accommodate 1 more person and didn't even offer to seat us at separate tables was extremely disappointing. Do not spend your money here. read more

Wine was amazing. Service was subpar. I'm a millennial who wants to tip everyone a lot in order to support the service industry homies but I couldn't tip this man 20%. Also the food with beverage purchase is a sham. Cheese plate is weak. Just buy the small chips. read more

Had no idea where to bring my friends to laugh and drink some wine until I suddenly remembered that this place once did a brunch with waffles, so I inquired. They didn't do it that particular weekend, but we decided to check out this vineyard anyway. It's beautiful. They have so much space to hang out, and a huge patio out back. Our waitress informed us that they were having an oyster bake, so we bought some tickets to check it out. They offered a plethora of raw and cooked oysters, both delicious. My friend ended up loving the wine so much, she bought 6 bottles to go. Will definitely be back read more

Unfortunately, I have to give this place one star. I tried reserving a table for a birthday celebration and I was told that I need to purchase a package (which varies in price) knowing we always buy a couple of bottles(at least) along with food and even buy bottles to bring home, I couldn't comprehend spending $12 pp (cheapest pkg) on top of everything we order just to reserve..I was trying to explain that to Mike the Manager and he came across very rude and abrupt saying that's their policy and only way to get a table. He made no effort to accommodate. He mentioned you pay for the view!...pleeezzz you can get a view at any of the other vineyards with a staff who truly makes you feel welcomed. They need to bring in a new manager who makes you feel you want to come back!! for now I will be visiting many of the beautiful wineries and being greeted by a staff with a smile!!! read more

One of my favorite places on the The North Fork. Coming here since it first opened; love the 2015 Brut the best. Great snacks if you're hungry. My only criticism is that now people are bringing their infants and young children. To me this is an adult place and should be kept that way‍ read more

This place was cool, I'm all about the bubbled so I needed to come here and it came recommended by a bunch of my girlfriends who had been here previously. The woman doing our tastings was a sweetheart. I couldn't decide which wines I wanted to taste and she literally gave me a taste to find out what I wanted to taste. Too funny and the gesture was so appreciated. They have some very interesting sparkling wines here. I went with two tastings; cannot recall what they were exactly but one had a strong almond flavor, very interesting flavor, very sweet, anything more than a sip or two was too much and it was also insanely expensive. For two tastes, I think $16 is a lot. My boyfriend just got a glass and we went out back and sat on their patio, which had a great view of the vineyard. It was fairly windy outside and so our napkins were blowing away and there was a gentleman coming around to collect our empty or in some cases, close to empty champagne glasses so that those did not blow over as well. The inside definitely had a cold feeling, it was white and super modern, no charm really, upscale kind of. This place is great for people who are coming because they appreciate sparkling wine and don't mind how much they are spending on a tasting or on a glass. I wouldn't race back here, but it was good you know? Good enough. read more

Beautiful grounds with beautiful wineyards. Stay for a flight! It is $20 for a flight of 4 of their sparkling wines. They start out with a dry but fruit forward wine then to a 7 yr aged golden delicious sparkling wine. The third rose was super sweet while the last one reminded us of a sweet prosecco. If you end up buying 2 bottles then they wave your tasting fee. Good service and great explanations of each wine. Great for those who enjoy their bubbly wines! read more

I had the chance to visit sparkling pointe over the weekend and I will absolutely be going back. As a group of 8 we were on the Hotel Indigo-East End North Fork Uncorked Tour and it was fantastic! Evan was a great host with a great personality and knowledge of sparkling pointe. They have a very elegant tasting room, and can pair your sparkling wine with local cheese, jam, honey, bread, and everything is more delicious than the last. I am looking forward to my next visit. I didn't have much time to peruse the gift shop, but peaking in they looked like they had some really nice things for sale as well that I will be giving myself some time to look through next time. read more

Sparkling pointe is a beautiful vineyard on the north fork of Long Island. They offer a great selection of sparkling wines. I should mention that they only serve sparkling wines. Even if sparkling wines are not your thing you should still visit for the elegant atmosphere. Their tasting room and vine views are beautiful and can't be missed. read more

Great views and tasty wines. Friendly staff. Able to accommodate us on the patio. If you are not a fan of champagne, the choices are limited (rose other option). Would recommend read more

I've been to this tasting room about five times now, and each experience is different, but always a delight. Whether I'm tasting at the bar or at a table outside, the service is always impeccable. The servers are always willing to go the extra mile, whether it's giving an extra taste or bringing out personal bottles of sunscreen when the sun miraculously peeks out for the first time in weeks. My server on Sunday was cheery and quick, despite there being multiple big parties and other tables she had to attend to. Obviously for a place that does all sparkling wines, it is on the fancier, extravagant side, which is reflected in the pricing. I don't know much about sparkling wine, but what I do know is that each wine they pour is delicious. Hope to return soon! read more

Sparkling Pointe (SP) is truly a world class gem situated on the Eastern side of Long Island's North Fork Wine Country. How lucky are we to have them here? Most would agree that their enormous tasting room is quite grandiose (and maybe a bit too grandiose for some), but it's tastefully elegant and equally beautiful, which is difficult to achieve. Reruns of Brazil's iconic Carnival is played throughout the facility once your inside, this after you've experienced the wonderful music to get you in to the "Bubbly mood" as you approach the building from the exterior. Their "Bubble Room" (opposite the tasting bar and 2 steps up from the main tasting room) is my personal favorite which features a very luxurious and exclusive feel - it may also be booked out for private events as well. It features beautiful geodes, gorgeous white leather seating, a fireplace that is almost always on, a separate bar, and windows that peek in to portions of their massive (and quite impressive) wine making facilities. I was given a tour of where the magic happens, just a few weeks ago...it's quite impressive to see facilities like these, in my back yard. I strongly suggest to sit in the back room if you're able to! Table Service / Tasting Room: + Sparkling Pointe has always believed in table service and executes it extremely well. They along with Wölffer Estate in Sagaponack (South Fork) are the only ones that are mostly/solely table service, and are always on point delivering efficient, smart, and top notch service. This is very impressive for a region that experiences staffing challenges throughout the year. Other wineries should model their table service offerings after Sparkling Pointe as it's executed masterfully and should be the poster child IMO. + They also feature a very large selection of cheeses, snacks, caviar, etc., to augment your tasting experience. It's almost a must, please don't miss out on getting a wonderful creamy cheese, to offset the sparkling, alternatively, go for the caviar. Heaven in your mouth in so many ways... + SP has low tables, high tables, and couches by fireplaces (if you're lucky to grab one that's available) Kelsey & Mike: + Kelsey and Mike are veterans @ SP and are generally always there. They're incredibly knowledgeable about the wine making process (Sparkling / Methode Champenoise), SP's wines, know how to handle large groups incredibly well (which is important in the Summer and Fall, which is the busy season), and are both absolutely fabulous. I generally sit with Kelsey to do my tastings/glasses/bottles and she makes you feel incredibly welcome. She's always smiling and just a pleasure to be with while you're experiencing their great vintage & non-vintages sparkling masterpieces. If she's not there, ask for Mike - It's a MUST to sit with either of them and tell them I sent you! Wines: + Their flights are priced well at ~$17 (cheaper than other wineries and on par with the rest) and give you a generous pour of 4 sparkling wines, from Brut to Sec styles. My favorite wine that SP has ever made, was their 2005 Brut Seduction; they're on to the 2006 vintage now, but all frankly, are quite good. You'll be sure to find one that you enjoy and love, I don't recall ever having a "Mediocre" sparkling wine at SP + I've also started to appreciate their pricing of bottles, yes, some will think their bottles are on the pricier side and they would rather go to Costco Liquors to purchase VCP NV Yellow Brut or Moët for $40-50, but SP's $20-30 offerings are a nice alternative if you want to bring something local to a party or just to enjoy it by yourself. But, the choice is yours, buy local and you may be even more impactful... + Gilles, their winemaker, has become one of the most well respected winemakers on the NoFo (top 2 according to most) and produces wine for several other wineries. He is the house winemaker at SP - what a fabulous job he's doing over there, cheers to you sir! Parking/Summer & Fall: - The only negative is how busy SP is during the Summer and Fall months. I would suggest making reservations when/where possible, and don't be late. Parking can be very tough at times and they do have an alternative tasting room a few hundred feet away, which is open certain times during the peak months handling overflow. Go and enjoy Sparkling Pointe, they're the only winery producing Sparkling Wines solely, and THIS has been a review by Gaurav read more

Server Kelly hates her job and ruined our vineyard day. She was sarcastic and rude and we regret making this our last stop. It's unfortunate that our group paid for 5 tastings and spent over $100 and we couldn't enjoy it because of a bad server. read more

I don't mind paying for a good experience but when I visited Sparkling Pointe I left with a bad taste in my mouth... mostly because of the service. And honestly, I don't even remember what the wines tasted like because I was too distracted by the bad service. No one greets you when you walk in the door. We had to wait for about 10 minutes to find out what was going on. After we waited awkwardly we had to ask if we could seat ourselves because we were abandoned mid explanation of our flight. We sat ourselves and carried our own wine out (only the first glass because the employee poured us one and then walked away indefinitely). I'll admit that the vineyard itself is well taken care of and pretty. The chairs are comfy as well. However we weren't treated well in the beginning. Eventually a new server came and she took care of us, maybe she felt bad about us waiting forever. Good thing we had a spare TWO HOURS and didn't have anywhere to be or else we would have been stuck there. As I said before I felt disgruntled during most of the tasting and in the end I could only think about getting out of there and never coming back. Not sure why such a beautiful and obviously well cared for place had such weird service. Shouldn't the people working there be required to show pride in their product? Hopefully they remedy this soon. read more

Have never experienced such disrespect in a professional setting as I did from the manager Mike. I can think of countless resolutions he as manager and a professional in the customer service industry could and should have offered us to fix a mistake (that ended up to be an error on the winery's end). Instead, I felt almost threatened as a woman, berated and disrespected by this larger, rude and intimidating man. Ladies especially, take warning. We're better than that. Went on to have some lovely sparkling moscato at Laurel Lake. Go there instead. read more

Sparkling Pointe is a very clean and modern winery. It's nice enough, but its missing that.... something that makes you want to stay for an afternoon and relax. Maybe it is the lack of shade trees or the pebbles that make up most of the walkways in the wine trail. The people were friendly and attentive so its not that--- for us it was just too "air-conditioned" and commercial. The patio was full of tables and umbrellas with nice views of the vinyards, but we chose to move on to more rustic surroundings. Nothing negative, just not our scene, I suppose. read more

I used to think I won't like sparkling wine, but I was wrong ! We came here after a bike ride in a hot summer day , and nothing is better and more satisfying than tasting cold and refreshing sparkling wine ! You can choose to pay $20 for wine tasting , which you can try 4 of their best sellers! Since we came in a big group, we ordered 3 bottles of wines to share and each of us paid approximated $20, so if you came in a big group, you might wan to order a bottle so you get to taste more ! I highly recommend you must try their Cuvée Carnaval, it tastes really nicely and the floral scent is so dreamy! It's sweeter wine but not overly sweet. I ended up buying 2 bottles home just because I love it so much ! All of the staffs are extremely nice and polite , I enjoyed my wine tasting experience with them so much and I definitely recommend you coming in to try their wine! read more

If you like sparkling wine this is definitely the place to come. Great winery, so nice to go and relax, definitely recommend. Staff is great!
