Lovely atmosphere and ambiance. The employees are friendly and helpful. We loved our tasting of the methode champenois. What a gem! Classy place. read more

My wife wanted to stop by here to try their bubbly. We shared the flight which came with 4 different varieties. The place was packed, we arrived after 2pm where, as said on the website, no reservations are needed. We opted to stand at the bar vs being seated at one of the tables. We bought a couple of bottles to take home as well as the special topper for unfinished bottles. Certain wines can only be purchased by being in their wine club. The sparkling wine was great and we paired it with chocolate. read more

Love these guys. The owners are super sweet and their love and passion for Brazil is evident through their decor and the names of their vintages. Carnival is delicious. If you're lucky you just might visit during one of their Samba or basa nova nights. Highly recommend. It's classy not stuffy. Clean. Staff is super friendly and their pours are generous. read more

Love visiting this vineyard! The sparkling wine and cheeses are amazingly delicious. I would highly recommend the sparkling rosé. I even bought a bottle to take home. You can't go wrong at sparkling pointe, just be prepared to drop some serious dough. read more

Love this place !!! All sparkling wines and rose'! What could be better. Nice atmosphere. They have a fire with couches in their back room. It was too cold to go outside but looked beautiful for a summer day or night. The bottles weren't very expensive. I will definitely be back read more

Incredible experience. Perfect service and really great wine. Try the champagne and cupcake pairing for sure. Highly recommend

This was our 1st time here and it will not be our last. They have great Brazilian decor and a relaxing atmosphere. The sparkling wine was amazing! read more

Sparkling Pointe - Pretty colors of the Vinyard - Wineries Near Me - Southold, New York

First stop on wine tasting on Long Island's North Fork. Could not ask for a better location, and a better experience. We got there at the end of the day, but were not rushed (just the opposite--we were encouraged to stay and enjoy the scenery and the wines). The sparklings were uniformly excellent. The facility was first class inside and outside, and the service was exemplary. We loved every offering of SP's wines. Thank you for a great experience! read more

I feel so mixed about this review. The aesthetic and the wine is amazing but today was super disappointing. Upon arrival, I told the general manager that I was with 3 other ladies and we didn't have a reservation but would it be possible to be seated ? He said he only had 2 tables with 2 seats each, not near eachother and he couldn't arrange the seats near eachother. I said thank you but it won't work because we want to spend time together but I understood bc we didn't have a reservation. I then still wanted to buy a bottle to take home. As we were talking, he then said "well if you would've made a reservation this wouldn't be an issue" with a nasty/annoyed tone. He also made a sarcastic comment that even if people aren't seated together "the wine still tastes the same". I was honestly shocked by his comments and his tone especially as I was still giving them business by buying a bottle. He was extremely rude to me and the people next to me. The other wait staff were friendly and helpful when they heard how he was treating me and apologized on his behalf. I hope this gets rectified because the winery itself is pretty and the wine was wonderful. My friends and I went to Pindar and Bedell's after and we were greeted so warmly by the managers and made to feel at home. They were so accommodating and easy going. We had a blast and highly recommend them both! read more

This is our favorite vineyard on the North Fork. Cynthia & Tom along with winemaker Gilles Martin, have done a spectacular job their sparkling wines are awesome. This is a must stop of any North Fork wine tour! read more

Let just say very unwelcoming staff and while I like their champagne I will not give them my business again.

Went to this location the other day and they made it so difficult to spend money. I almost spend like $600 worth of stuff there and they were so rude I had them cancel everything and we left. The managers have no idea how to deal with high end clientele. So many other locations with good wine go spend your money somewhere else. read more

Reserved a table in advance for my bachelorette party group. The place was a mob house- very loud. Our waitress was nice but didn't really educate us on the wines very much and our glasses were never cleaned or changed out between tastings. Very chaotic and we couldn't bring in outside water bottles to stay hydrated read more

By far the BEST vineyard I've been to on Long Island. Ive been there for a bachelorette party, as well as a 60th birthday party. It didn't matter! The atmosphere was amazing and appropriate for both occasions. Great customer service. I will definitely be back! Thank you! read more

Expensive, but worth it. All of their bubbly is well done. I'm not exactly a fan of sparkling, but enjoy good alcohol, regardless of genre. The ambience adds to the class. Definitely check it out. read more

Normally, I have only had wonderful experiences at Sparkling Pointe. The establishment is beautiful and kept meticulous for a lovely experience. However, this time was sadly disappointing. We arrived with a group of 5 people. We also knew another group of 3 people who made a reservation at the same time slot. It clearly states on their website that they will not combine parties greater than 6. We all knew the details when we made the reservations and were very prepared to not be seated anywhere near one another and that at that particular place we would be separated. I checked in with the manager Mike who informed me at arrival that the other group arrived and that they do not seat parties larger than 6 together. I agreed and said we all knew that when we made the reservation. He then proceeded to tell me again that their policy is to not seat parties larger than six, and that it says it repeatedly all over the website and technically he could cancel our reservation. I was taken back by his antagonizing nature and said we were well aware of the policy on the website and we are prepared to not be seated near each other. That it was fine. I did inquire if it was possible to be seated in the vicinity of the other party if there was availability? The manager Mike then informed me that there was in fact empty tables but he would not be seating us near the other group. I was shocked by such a confrontational attitude and wanted further clarification and I said to Mike, are you saying that you are deliberately seating us apart and he said yes and reiterated that he should cancel my reservation, and the details of making a reservation was displayed on the website. I honestly was completely shocked and began to feel really upset by the deliberate and antagonizing nature of the front of house staff. He then said, is there a problem with that? I was frazzled and said it was fine. He finished by saying that he's just trying to manage our expectations. Since we were supposed to have a nice afternoon, I just left it alone and we had a nice afternoon and the opposite side of the outdoor area. What was increasingly disappointing was that aside from our party of 5 and our friends party of 3, only 2 other tables were occupied out of approximately 20 tables! We could've been seated on the same side of the outside deck area but where Mike seated us, couldn't have been seated further away. I absolutely understand the policies set forth by Sparkling Pointe, respect them and fully intended on adhering to them. However, the way I was spoken to, our party was treated and the deliberate and confrontational behavior of the manager Mike was incredibly disrespectful, bad for business and frankly made a negative experience out of a lovely place. We have all decided that this may have been our last visit. There are many places to visit on the North Fork and we all have chosen to take our business the establishments that treat us with respect and dignity. Perhaps Sparkling Pointe should reconsider who they have facing the public. After all, the front of house person carries the reputation of the establishment. I'm pretty sure this isn't the message they want to convey to the public. read more

This is one of my favorite wineries! The wine itself is great and definitely a nice change from the usual places. The atmosphere is also really different, it's a beautiful space and I love the Brazilian theme. And a plus is the staff here is soo nice, which isn't always the case. I've come here a few times and will be back. read more

Wine was good, had to pay an extra 15$ to drink the bottle on premises, when me and my boyfriend went for a walk they gave up our table and assumed we were done, we could have walked out and no one would have even noticed. When we went to pay they didn't even apologize for giving up our table. Wouldn't recommend this place at all. read more

We went to sparkling pointe for my mothers birthday it was nothing short of an amazing day! The staff was so friendly and personable and knew all the answers to our questions, the decor is beautiful and the back patio is beautiful and so relaxing. Definitely a must if your on the east end. I will definitely be back soon! read more

Prejudice against service animals! Have been to this winery many times with a service dog and had no issues until recently. Was told by the general manager MIKE only ADA service dogs allowed. Obviously this person is not aware of the fact that ADA doesn't register service dogs of any type and is not aware of the law which is clearly stated below. A. Under the ADA, a service animal is defined as a dog that has been individually trained to do work or perform tasks for an individual with a disability. The task(s) performed by the dog must be directly related to the person's disability. A. In situations where it is not obvious that the dog is a service animal, staff may ask only two specific questions: (1) is the dog a service animal required because of a disability? and (2) what work or task has the dog been trained to perform? Staff are not allowed to request any documentation for the dog, require that the dog demonstrate its task, or inquire about the nature of the person's disability.

Being there was exceptional beautiful, happy, and relaxing! It felt like Napa Valley but in New York! Everyone there was knowledge about sparking wine. The master brewer, Gilles Martin could even open the champagne bottles with a sword! read more

When you pull up to Sparkling Pointe, you are greeted by a well manicured property, replete with a new, well designed building, which is decorated in a very high end manner. However, once you get over the initial sticker shock of the tastings/bottle prices, you will not be treated very well. Upon arrival, we walked up to the large counter, which was not very busy, and literally stood there for 5 minutes waiting for someone to come over. Finally, I had to call someone over, to ask about the tasting options. She hastily told me what was available and then WALKED AWAY!!! Another five minutes later, I had to summon another "server" to actually order our tasting. The server pours the tasting and then walks away, without explaining what we were drinking, and never came back! We could have walked out without paying, they wouldn't have even noticed! I have been to almost every winery on the north fork, and have NEVER been treated like this. Rather than hiring a bunch of high school teenage girls to work the counter, they would be better served hiring some professionals, because frankly, the champagnes we tried were good, despite not being worth the prices they charged per bottle. The poor customer service could not be overcome by the beautiful surroundings. Absent some major changes, I would not recommend visiting this winery. read more

Oh how I love thee...let me count the ways! By far one of the best experiences on the north fork. The venue is gorgeous! All white, and the chandeliers are magnificent. The service is robust; friendly and consistent. They offer many different kinds of champagne, if you are a first timer I highly recommend trying a flight. They always are sweet and also have a nice gift shop. (Check in on Yelp for a sweet surprise!) A great day is coming here with friends, ordering some tapas (A nice, upscale selection of oysters and other 'non conventional' items you would see at a vineyard) which are a nice touch and turning off the outside world. Try the lavender honey with cheese...it is outrageous! Even in the winter, this place is great to gather in the room with the fireplace and warm up with some champagne. Don't be in a rush, turn your phone off and take it in. read more

This has officially become my fav winery on the north fork! Great selection of wine, awesome staff and amazing views! Also have a great cheese selection. Loved it here! read more

5 stars are not enough. This is the very best sparkling wine and winery in the entire world (and I have been to some pretty fabulous ones). By way of background, I had only tried Sparkling Pointe twice before our visit yesterday (10-30-16): Once at Maroni's in Northport on 10-22-16 and just this past Friday, 10-28-16 at Sandbar in Cold Spring Harbor. As soon as the wine met my taste buds it was love at first gulp. I could not believe the delicious toasty, oaky, crisp taste with a suave buttery finish that left me longing for more. The refreshing yet not overpowering bubbles. The finesse. I knew IMMEDIATELY this was not just another sparkling wine, this was THE sparkling wine for me. I got home, starred at my vast collection of Moet Chandon, Veuve Clicquot (Brut and Rose), and Louis Roederer Cristal...and all of a sudden I felt they were inadequate. I could not fathom not having many more bottles of Sparkling Pointe. So my husband and I decided very much spontaneously and spare of the moment to pay a visit to the winery, located in Southold, NY only about an hour and a half from our home. Upon arrival I was impressed to find my country's flag and my birth city's license plates as well as beach cangas and carnaval costumes at the entrance, greeting me. I was also hugged by bossa nova playing on the meticulously scattered speakers. For a second I thought my husband planned this, because how could this possibly be true? What were the odds that the best sparkling wine I ever tasted was produced only an hour and a half from where I live, and is immersed in my birth culture? Then we proceeded to the counter where we met the most knowledgeable and courteous server, who also happens to be the membership coordinator for the winery. He was the most attentive and kind person I had ever come across in any service industry. Ever. We were able to sit outside on the comfortable wicker furniture (that made me feel as though I was in my own backyard) facing the vast and gorgeous vines. It was magical. When we looked at the menu, not only were the prices extremely reasonable, but the food pairings took the "coincidences" to yet another level. We were able to do a chocolate pairing with Vosges Chocolates, our FAVORITE chocolates in the world, as well as truffle cheese (which we adore), and local lavender honey (another favorite). I told our server how magical everything was and it seemed that I had died and gone to heaven, and I asked him about the membership because I sincerely don't believe I could ever live without this wine. He explained everything to us. And after I told him I am Brazilian he told me that the owners, Tom and Cynthia, love Brazil, and have a place in Rio. He said that they are usually there but were not there that day. We were sorry we missed them but were looking forward to our next (of many) visit to get a chance to meet them. All of a sudden, I hear a voice in my ear singing Samba do Aviao, and I turn around and have the pleasure of meeting Tom! He was this incredibly friendly and gracious host, who took us on his gulf cart to see the Cristo Redentor statue he has in the back of the vines, blessing the production. We took pictures and he took us on a tour of the premises, showed us where the magic happens, and explained the methode champenoise to us. Riddling, Disgoring, Dossage...My husband and I felt like experts. This experience took our love for wine, especially our newfound love for sparkling wine to another level. We then tried on the costume hats from Tom and Cynthia's fantasias when they participated in the desfile of Beija Flor samba school (many times). It's incredible to see someone love my culture so much without being born there. I was flattered. I was also impressed with Yemanja on the labels and cards. So beautiful and creative. Unfortunately we had to go to a prior engagement, so we hugged Tom goodbye and truly left feeling like we now made a new friend, who not only lives relatively close to us in NY but has an apartment close to my grandparents' in Rio. At the end we went to pay for the 6 bottles we purchased (because we certainly could not leave there empty handed) and were told by our same gracious server that the tasting was on them, as well as two flutes, and Tom even ran up to us before we left to give us a blanket with Sparkling Pointe logo on it, which I know I will make great use of during the next cold months by our outdoor fire pit. The entire experience was unreal. It was like a perfect dream you never want to wake up from. Every single wine I tasted there was incredibly delicious and I look forward to adding them all to our collection and to being back there, in this modern and sophisticated tasting room filled with great music and outstanding staff, for the rest of my life. You are missing out in life if you don't visit this winery. There is none like it anywhere, and certainly none like it in the entire East Coast. read more

absolutely love the four fat fowl cheese here... the wines are delicious! Outdoor view overlooking the vineyard is stunning and the most peaceful place to unwind. Looking forward to summer. read more

Beautiful grounds, sit outside and let the service come to you :) you have to be a fan of sparkling wine to like the wines... Unfortunately I'm apparently not BUT that doesn't change a great overall experience. read more

Horrible horrible service. Came here on a bus for my bachelorette party and was turned away at the door. The manager actually laughed in our face and threatened to call the police if we didn't leave. He bus company had a reservation and there were 23 ladies ready to spend a lot of money for an hour or so of drinking and we were told to leave. The kicker is that the bus company had a reservation and the winery was empty. They had the space. Do yourself a favor and stay away. The service here is disgusting for a service industry. read more

Disappointed in how deceptive/non transparent they are with their pricing. They charged us more for our group of 14 per person than a group of 2 per person when we were not advised of their usual pricing vs. group pricing. Seems interesting to charge $20 for 4 tasting vs. our $30 for 3 tastings including gratuity. I'm all about the forced gratuity for a larger group but charging extra for generic tastings AND leaving out their best rated bottle out of the tasting has really diminished our experience. Hope they get it together. read more

This is my second time coming to this beautiful vineyard. The staff is friendly and helpful. All of the sparkling wine selections are delicious. My favorite is the Baton Rouge. This was my first time coming to the annual Brazilian Carnaval. This in my opinion is the best time to come. There is a live samba band, singers and dancers with extravagant costumes. The entire theme of this vineyard is Brazilian, so to come during the Carnaval really completes the experience! There were food trucks from local food vendors. There was a bakery truck were we were able to enjoy an acai berry bowl, delicious, just to add even more to the Brazilian theme. I can't wait for the next Brazilian Carnaval! Only complaint is there should definitely be more seating outside, the place was packed and I'm sure after I tell all of my friends and family, next year will be even more packed. Next time we will get there super early to reserve a table. Overall a great experience! read more

My wife and i's favorite vineyard of all time. Their champagnes are so amazing. We always get the carnival cuevee. We even order it and have it shipped to our house. The vineyard itself is gorgeous. The girls working inside are always very nice and do a good job and know a lot about their wines. We love to eat here as well their meats and cheeses are all delicious. Love coming here highly recommend if you like sparkling wines read more

Freezing temperatures. Asked to raise the heat and they said there is nothing they could do even with two fire places not lit. They also had one person serving and 5 employees laughing and talking behind the bar. This place used to be my favorite to go to, such a disappointment!!!! read more

Absolutely gorgeous place!! The sparkling was amazing and the service was fantastic. We sat out back and enjoyed the sun and bubbly! Can't wait to get out there again!! read more

This is one of those splashy vineyards with a luxe ambience worthy of fine champagne, We ordered a glass at the tasting bar with some parmesan cheese crisps and carried them out to a table. It might have been simpler to just order from a server as this is a full service operation. The featured 2005 champagne style wine $15 a glass, was one of the best domestic efforts I have tried. The patrons next to us were feasting on a good looking sausage the whole small dry salame ,not a few slices Sit outside at a table overlooking the vineyards, walk amongst the vines. Not a place for picnics. read more

So pleasantly surprised by this location! First time here and was so happy. Their rose sparkling wine was delicious! read more

Extremely frustrated. We were turned away at the door with no explanation. While we were advised that there were no tables available, but when we said that we were fine to have a drink at the bar, they still refused to let us in. I would have understood if it was merely an issue of space but the manner in which it was handled was completely unacceptable. read more

Very upsetting experience here. We have always visited sparkling pointe when we go on our wine tours a few times a year but this last visit ruined it for us. We will not be returning due to how rude the staff was except for one pleasant gentleman who was greeting guests. We were treated poorly from the moment we arrived. It was pouring rain and we slipped walking in. Rather than asking if we were alright or putting a mat down on the slippery floor, The staff immediately judged us making rude comments about us to people who they did not know were actually with our party!... Absurd. They never came back in the hour and a half we were here to see if we needed anything. We were very uncomfortable and would rather now give our business to other wineries. read more

This was my groups first stop on our annual wine tour this year and everyone was very happy. We all left with at least one bottle. Considering the quality of the wine and the fact that they are strictly sparking wine in the traditional method, I would say the price is fair. Our Sommelier was very good to us, and made sure we got every discount possible. I don't know what the current specials are but I believe they were doing a percentage discount on a case, or half case, and on top of that for every two bottles purchased, you get a free tasting or $17 off the bottle price, during our visit. The group consensus was that the decor and look was appropriate to a sparking wine tasting room. It was clean and classy. The back porch was also a great place to sit. Lots of sunlight and comfortable adirondack chairs. They also had some nice areas with deep seated chat sets that looked as though they had to be reserved. Nice to know but we were happy to sit on the regular porch and enjoy a bottle. I think we'd all come back to Sparking Pointe, and probably buy a few more bottles. read more

It's great that they have champagne because that's what attracts people. Thank god for that because the customer service and the atmosphere is terrible. The people behind the bar deter you away. Smile. Pretend you're happy to see me and tell me I'm beautiful. (I'm kidding but it could give them an extra star) I'm about to drop some cash (and actually tip you since I also work in the service industry) working in the wine circuit seems to be a cult. They all cycle around and they are all bitter. Change of profession possibly? You work in a glorified champagne factory. Move on to bigger and better things. It lost that unique appeal it used to have. Now it just seems like an ideal spot for bachelorette parties and the dreaded wine tours. I will give it 3 stars. The wine doesn't suck. read more

Have visited many times before. Normally had a great time. Was so looking forward to visiting the winery. Very disappointed. Felt very rushed from the time we arrived. We got there 15 minutes early and were greeted by the parking attendant. He asked us to wait in car and would come and get us when table was ready. Great no issues. When he comes to get us we get out and start to head in. The girls wanted to stop and get a quick photo. When parking attendant informs us we need to hurry or he will have to give our table away. So we don't do the pics and head inside. Sit at table waiter comes over and takes our order. Brings our first flight over doesn't tell us anything about what we just order and leaves. About what felt like 5 mins later could have been 10 give or take he drops off our second round of drinks havent even finished first. Feeling very rushed. We finish those and here comes our last round. We decide since we are here and we're really looking forward to this trip let's get a bottle. He now informs us they no longer have bottle service. I asked since when? He first states its a covid thing and then says it also helps us flip tables quicker. I understand these are hard times for everyone but when we finally feel its ok to try and get out again I think we would skip Sparkling Pointe. read more
