Outstanding winery first and foremost. I made a reservation for midday a la carte wines and was a fantastic experience overall. Situated right on the water of Red Hook with a nice quiet scenic view of the sound. All flights we ordered were perfectly chilled and of course display cards informing patrons what each was. The staff was so courteous and just made us felt so relaxed. I was not aware they had a private parking lot so next time I'm definitely driving there. This winery is equivalent to most of the wineries out on eastern Long Island and North Fork without the extensive travel. Perfect day getaway for some slippage. read more

So happy to have found this gem! They have a good variety of wines with solid prices. They have plenty of seats outside and inside. All the staff were super friendly and helpful. We decided to get the White Blend bottle to share and it was crispy and dry - perfect for a summer day. The winery is overlooking the river and the sun is covered by the building so it gives you a break on those hot days. Definitely coming back! read more

The Red Hook Winery - Wine - Wineries Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Gorgeous outdoor winery situated right on the water in Red Hook. We made a same day reservation for outdoor a la carte seats, which required a credit card and payment of $20 per person which gets credited toward your overall bill. Upon arriving we were swiftly seated for our reservation overlooking the water outside. We decided to try their orange wine flights, which were 4 wines for $18. All of the orange wines were tasty, but were also very similar in nature. Our waitress was accommodating and attentive, and took time to explain the wines on the list. All of the wines here are local to the NY area. One thing that was a little off putting at first was their line of wines saved during Hurricane Sandy. The way the waitress explained them made it sound like they were plucked from the water, and honestly they all had a little bit of a briney sea taste to them (but maybe it was just in my head). All in all, a solid activity to do on a beautiful day. read more

The Red Hook Winery - Orange Wine Flight with a view - Wineries Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Overall: I went here with my girlfriend in the late afternoon on a Sunday. We arrived around 7 pm (they close at 8), which worked out great because a lot of people were starting to filter out. There's a small area of wine barrels outside that surround a few tables and chairs. These are only available by reservation, but we were able to sit there since it was close to closing. It was a very nice area to sit during the sunset--I just wish they had more outdoor seating. We ordered one of the special edition bottles of orange wine they offered. The worker at the ordering counter helped steer me to it, and I wasn't disappointed. The bottle was one of the more reasonably priced options ($18/glass or $52/bottle) and was very refreshing on a warm evening. In the past, I've also tried some of their different flight options. They offer several assortments, each covering an interesting spectrum. This is a beautiful spot for a drink, and I'll definitely be back. Drinks: 5 Service: 4 Value: 2 Atmosphere: 4 Drinks: We had a really nice orange wine. It was one of their seasonal special editions, so this was one of the last times they had it. It was pretty tasty, and I would definitely try it again. The selection is always good, with a lot of options for people interested in trying something new. Service: Service at the counter is pretty hit-or-miss. The line seems to get long in spurts, so sometimes it takes a while to get something. Once you're at the front, though, they're very helpful--it can just take a little time. Value: The drinks here are pretty expensive. Bottles are a slightly better value but still not cheap. There are other places to get a better value, but this is still a fun and relaxing spot. Atmosphere: We were able to sit outside right on the water's edge. It's a very nice place to hang out. Unfortunately, the outdoor area is small, so you typically have to stay inside. read more

Let me just start this review by saying that the staff was incredible, attentive, and super sweet! I love that this spot is located by the water, however, we were indoors, and indoors is missing the vibe, the background music was low, and besides the wine, the snack selection is very mid, so do not come hungry over here. Overall I had a good time, we tried a sampler and then went with 2 bottles of our fave, Great spot to come with friends and maybe on a crawl to check out other spots in Red Hook, we mistakenly went to the cidery first and that seemed more lively. read more

Had such high hopes for this spot, but in the end was underwhelmed. Came on a Saturday for the tasting. Was sat fairly quickly and the glasses were waiting at the table. However, it took a significant amount of time for anyone from the wait staff to realize we hadn't been served, which was a bummer. The same thing sort of happened when we were ready to move from the white to red section, with two separate people asking us if we were ready and saying they'd come introduce us to the second half of the tasting. The space itself is gorgeous. I will say we paid for a tasting table for extra money, but this was not super worth it. Would have easily had a better/the same tasting if we joined the communal tasting table. We were given a bottle of water as soon as we started without glasses, which is fine- I'm happy to remind them to give some glasses. However, it was fairly difficult to get refills of this bottle of water. I wouldn't harp on this if we weren't in the midst of a heat wave and we hadn't stopped in here when it was 90 degrees. The wine itself was good! But it took a long time to get here. The views are stellar, which is what this spot really relies on. read more

A perfect day in Red Hook to me would involve a visit to Steve's Key Lime Pie, a chocolate and whiskey tasting at Cacao Prieto/Widow Jane, a meal at Somtum Der, and maybe a nitecap at Sunny's Bar. Now I'm happy to add Red Hook Winery to that list, and would take the Ikea Ferry from the city just to visit this winery on any warm day for one of their delicious wine flights and cheese boards. Red Hook is not close to any subway stations, making it kind of annoying to get to if you don't live in the area, but instead of looking for a day trip outside of the city, I'd say a visit to Red Hook is well worth the trek. Unlike a lot of things in the city, businesses are not overly crowded here, as is the case with Red Hook Winery. It's spacious and with the doors swung open on a warm day you have waterfront views and beautiful light streaming into the wood paneled space. Occasionally they'll have live music there too. The wine flights are a great deal, with 2oz pours per glass. I tried the Rose, Agnes, and a dry Riesling and enjoyed all of them. I don't have the most well versed palate when it comes to wine so my vocabulary to describe the wine starts and ends at "pretty good." If that's good enough for you, you'll likely enjoy a visit. read more

Came here randomly because we were in the area. Glad we did!! The wines were delicious and service was excellent. They have a red, white, or mixed flight for 18. If you want the full tasting I believe it's 45 for 6. I will definitely come back and they are dog friendly. read more

The Red Hook Winery - Wineries Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This winery is tucked away amongst huge factories. There is little signage and very difficult to find the winery The wine menu is simple with various different wine tastings. The wines themselves were refreshing and pleasant. It was odd that the waitress wanted a credit card upfront right when ordering. The wine flights were delivered with plastic table place mats to label the wine. There was very little explanation from the waitress as to the history of the winery or descriptions of the wine. More just placed them on the table and left. The winery itself was clean and the bathrooms were well kept. Local to the area is that dogs were permitted and at one point dogs were barking excessively echoing through the acoustics of the room. While I would not go out of my way to return, if I was local in the area I would stop in for a little while. read more

We recently visited this new winery and had a great time! We explored the private side for a wine tasting experience, which included small dishes with a charcuterie board, crackers, and various cheeses, along with some chips. The public side offered more food options, along with wine by the glass or bottle. The outdoor area is really nice, making it a perfect spot to enjoy the afternoon. We tried their hot dogs and smash burgers, which were all pretty good. The service was friendly and welcoming. Definitely a spot worth visiting again! Regarding Yelp, I recently had my Elite status removed after 8 years because I'm a business owner. Despite not being related or affiliated with any food businesses--only a local real estate office in NY--Yelp managers believe a business owner shouldn't be an Elite reviewer. In my opinion, being a business owner shouldn't disqualify someone from providing honest and fair reviews of unrelated businesses. My reviews are meant to be helpful and honest, and I believe that shouldn't affect my Elite status. read more

So so amazing - great service. Fantastic tasting flights. Meat and cheese board was better than I thought it could be. Simple but just right. And the views ... spectacular. Highly recommend. read more

We did not do wine tasting , I tried white draft and my bf has tried red draft wine. $10 each. I like the taste .They mostly have dry wines. They have some snacks :cheese and meat plate, nuts,crisps.

There are indoor and outdoor seats, but it got hot outside in the summer. The server was nice. We reserved a spot. You pay when you reserve and it becomes credit during the visit. We tried the white flight and the flight with white, rose, and red wine. The prices are higher than upstate, and I wasn't as into the flavors. There are two bathrooms so there can be a wait. They have merch. read more

The Red Hook Winery Barrel Room tour was fun, interactive, and informative. We learned about New York's wine regions, the winemaking process, and Red Hook Winery's distinctive approach to winemaking.

I made a reservation for a wine tasting at Red Hook Winery for a Saturday afternoon. Not having visited before, I called the Red Hook Winery ahead of time to make sure they were dog friendly. I also asked if you were allowed to bring your own food as I did not notice a food menu. Outside food was not allowed; however, they did provide us with a BIIIG bag of rosemary crisps to enjoy with our wine tasting, which was delicious and more than sufficient for my friend and I. Our reservation was for 3pm but we were running late. Thankfully there was a huge parking lot on site, with many available spots. I quickly parked and we ran quickly into the next door brewery by accident and waited in line, making us even later. We were probably 30 minutes late, but the staff was really cool about it. Upon arriving, the staff member outside checked our vaccination cards and showed us to our table overlooking the waterfront. Meanwhile, another friendly staff member approached my puppy to give him some treats (with permission of course), which he loved. Despite the amazing views, it was really too hot to sit outside that afternoon, so we asked if we could be moved inside instead. The staff happily accommodated us and showed us to a table inside. Inside, we started our tasting. The wine tasting was $25/person (for a flight of 6 wines - 3 whites, 3 reds) and paid in advance online when I made the reservation. Pricewise it was more than I expected, but the pours were generous, and to be fair, my friend and I spent 3 hours there, and no one bothered us. We enjoyed everything -- from the delicious wines, beautiful waterfront views, nice and friendly staff, to the huge parking lot. We cannot wait to come back. read more

Came here for a wine tasting experience but it was not what I expected. We served 3 white wine and 3 red wine. The lady was holding 3 bottles each time I was so worried she flips all the bottles. She briefly explained the history of the wine in red hook, not the wine itself and she left us to "discuss and discover", then 20 min later she came agin to pour the rest of wine. I will say is more a red hook wine testing than the actual testing because I didn't learn anything. That lady tried her best and I highly respect that. I just wish this could be more structured during the experience. No offense. read more

Visited Red Hook Winery on a Saturday afternoon with a friend for a tasting. From the start, we loved the lay back vibe of the winery. Our host was friendly, knowledgeable and a pleasure. Our tasting included 6 tastings and some rosemary crisps. Our host told us a bit about both and answered all of our questions. We spent a little over an hour and a half for our tasting and really enjoyed the experience. We did not feel rushed and the winery had a really nice vibe. Highly recommend for couples, friends, family, whoever! The indoor and outdoor setting are equally beautiful. I recommend for afternoons so you can see the amazing sunset. Will definitely be back! read more

I came to the Red Hook Winery this past weekend as a friend of my wife said that he heard about this being right around the corner. I decided to join them despite not being a drinker so I will tell you more about the experience. Service: the staff there were super nice and gladly answered any questions during the pairing. Even answered some questions I had about the Billy Joel memorabilia. Aesthetic: really nice views overlooking the River while maintaining a comfortable, home-like feel. Definitely a great place to sit and enjoy a drink. read more

It's the dog days of summer. One Saturday, my friend R and I walked around Red Hook marveling how things have changed over the years. We walked down and found Red Hook Winery, but they were all booked up for wine tastings that day. I made a mental note to come back. A few weeks later, we were able to reserve a time online. They are super respectful of the current COVID situation. The staff makes sure to wear masks, and only outdoor seating is available by reservation only. Every outdoor table faces the water, and even in 90 degree heat there was a sweet breeze coming toward us. The tables are spaced far apart from each other, so not only is it socially distant, but also romantic. :) Jeff was our guide, and he was fantastic. Some good jokes and pours and good pacing. I never felt rushed, and never felt pressured to drink a glass I decided I didn't like. The $25/person (plus tax and gratuity) tasting included 6 different local Long Island wines. I appreciated the attention to detail - the snacks were all vacuum-sealed new bags (trail mix and pita chips). We bought two bottles after the tasting. Chill vibes, and a good option to feel like you've escaped the city. read more

This is a lovely summer spot if you're into wine tastings on the water! The $25 wine tasting is amazing -- we tried six different types of wine: 4 white wines, 1 red blend, and 1 Riesling. The wine list was really interesting in that it featured 2 Sauvignon Blancs and 2 Chardonnays but were made by two different winemakers & also aged differently (btw: you get 15% off bottles that you want to purchase). We also had the most delicious rosemary crackers from Baked in Brooklyn & a few salted dark chocolate squares from Raaka (another local business in Red Hook). The people working there were so nice, and we loved that Emily would come out to describe the wine, pour for us and then let us enjoy the wine by ourselves for ~5 minutes before coming back with the next one. We had a great view of the water and a tarp over us, which helped us stay cool and out of the harsh summer sun. They were also great at providing us carafes of cold water. Heads up: You can take off your mask when you're sitting outside, but have to wear a mask if you come indoors -- they also have clean, private bathrooms. read more

After chilling at the nearby park on a Saturday early evening, headed over to this winery to relax with some drinks. About 45 minutes till closing time, there were some empty spots outside and a table inside, though it looked like they were for tastings from earlier in the day. Walked in looking to get a table for two, but wasn't greeted by anyone up front. Turned out we were in the "to-go" line, and another group behind us went to get a table. Despite that, figured to get a couple of crowlers to enjoy outside. Decided on the Red Blend "Gaia" ($12 for a small), and the Merlot "Vineyard Select" ($12 for a small). Crowlers are filled to the brim, an aluminum can with a twist-off for resealing. Really liked the merlot - a strong full-bodied red, while the blend was more light and not as flavorful. Wanted to chill with the wine outside, but they were taking the tables in before closing time. Better to come here early to take advantage of the tastings, or find a spot at the pier/park instead. read more

GREAT DAY TO VISIT THIS WINERY!I came here this weekend to celebrate my birthday and it was so worth it . When I booked here I booked separately Because some people on my party wanted to go last min & when we got there they accommodated the additional people so we could all sit together. Our host was good and very knowledgeable. The wines were delicious. I perfer white wine so I enjoyed the selection and the red wines were ok for me. The Rose' was delicious. The view here is beautiful. I was so happy the rain stopped and the sun was out so that we could enjoy it. I did notice they had tents out so that was a nice touch. They also provided me with a bottle of wine for my birthday. I will definitely be going back and it's a must try.Also they provide these chips which are yummy! read more

Wine in Brooklyn!! Looking for someplace fun and wanting to support my local winery, I found this made and made reservations for a party of 5. You have to pay for reservations beforehand and once you do that your spot/ time is secured. Emily was the best server! She educated us on the winery and all the different wines available. The cheeses really complimented all the wines really well. This is such a nice place to go with friends and in the summer they have tastings on the outdoors under tents. I purchased a bottle of wine and took my cheeses to go!!! read more

Aside from the beautiful view outside of this establishment we were really disappointed. Signed up for the wine tasting which was probably priced reasonably for the area. Wine was okay, not the best and certainly wouldn't be purchasing any to take home. The real issue was finding a disturbing bug in our water glass. We waited so long to see our server again that we ended up going to the front and closing our tab with a different server and not even mentioning the bug just so we could get out of there. Definitely disappointed. Giving the extra star for the views. read more
