New York's Wine Renaissance is Just Beginning!
A Brief History of New York's Wines & Wineries...
Did you know that New York is the third largest wine producing state in the country? With 1,600 family-owned vineyards, more than 40 wine grape varieties are grown here!
The history of New York wine starts off as early as the late 18th century. However, due to the cooler climate, Vitis Vinifera vines struggled and inevitably died. But some of the native American hybrids—especially Isabella and Catawba—proved hardy enough to survive the cold winters and diseases, and produced enjoyable wines.
It wasn't until the 1960s, when Ukrainian immigrant Dr. Konstantin Frank proved that it was possible to grow Vitis Vinifera using the right rootstocks and techniques. Thanks to Dr. Frank, New York was soon producing grape varietals that other parts of the world were already growing!
In 1976 the Farm Winery Act was passed enabling smaller grape growing farms to begin producing wine! This, in conjunction with Dr. Frank’s finding, was about to put New York on the map! Over the next 40 years New York would grow from just a handful of wineries, to now nearly 500!
And thanks to this act, Still on the Hill Winery & Spirits will be opening on December 2nd!

We consider our Pinot Noir to be a good wine to drink in the Springtime for several reasons:
1. Light to Medium Body: Our Pinot Noir is known fr its lighter to medium body, which makes it a versatile choice for the transitional season of Spring. It is not as heavy as some red wines, making it a refreshing option as the weather starts to warm up.
2. Refreshing acidity: Our Pinot Noir exhibits a good level of acidity, which adds a lively and refreshing quality to the wine. This acidity can complement the lighter and fresher flavors of Spring cuisine, such as grilled vegetables, seafood, and salads.
3. Fruit-forward flavors: Our Pinot Noir showcases vibrant fruit flavors, such as red cherries, strawberries, and raspberries. These fruity notes are a delightful match for the vibrant flavors of Spring produce and dishes, enhancing the overall dining experience.
4. Versatility: Our Pinot Noir's versatility allows it to pair well with a wide range of foods, including lighter meats like chicken and turkey, as well as vegetarian dishes. Its smooth and balanced character complements a variety of flavors and textures, making it a crowd-pleasing option for Springtime gatherings.
